    @meetdilip You could make one with the global header widget. Depends where the news comes from. Might be worthy of a plugin though.

    @a_5mith The same origin policy would protect against most of that stuff, but I agree. Maybe having a url filter of some sort testing it against a whitelisted database which could be configure by the admins.

    I thought Google Drive was geared towards personal usage and sharing? Can't see this being good for public use.

    @peter if you're looking to limit how long a post can be edited for, I'm not sure if that's presently possible. It would be an interesting feature, but if I recall there was need for a hook creation by the developers before enhanced user group permissions could be established

    @julian said: GTA:VC will always have a special place in my heart. Beat it 100% at least 5 times, and even learned how to drift in the cars in that game XD what a waste of my adolescence. ain. +1 for Vice City being the best! I think that I am the only person how did not enjoy GTA:V. I think it was the most overrated game to come out last year. It looked great and the maps are huge but the story lacked a lot of things. I found it hard to follow and it didn't really explain much. I can't even remember most of it and I only played it a year a go but I can remember a hell of a lot more of GTA: Vice City.

    @Var1 said: NONE OF THEM WORK !!!!!!!!!!! Try reading the documentation. Note: I believe vps.me requires that you install Ubuntu yourself first. I believe they only support up to 12.04, so you'd need to install the 32 bit version of that, then install NodeBB.

    @jimmerz213 said: <stuff> So I just built a quick VM locally and followed the guides I mentioned above. Did nothing differently except I didn't install php and apache before and start ripping things out. It works flawlessly. I can only imagine at this point its something with my server and I think I may just wipe it and start clean, using nginx only instead of apache. Thanks for looking at this stuff guys - I appreciate it. Edit - welp, it works great now. Probably has this whole time. The URL I was using to hit the forums was set to be x.x.132.x, it had to be x.x.135.x. Hey, at least I learned a TON about nodebb and nginx I'll take it.

    You need to write a server side script to go through all the users and update their urls. Something like the following should work. var db = require('./database'), user = require('./user'), async = require('async'); db.getSortedSetRange('users:joindate', 0, -1, function(err, uids) { async.eachLimit(uids, 50, updateUserImage, function(err) { console.log('done'); }); }); function updateUserImage(uid, next) { user.getUserFields(uid, ['image', 'gravatarpicture', 'uploadedpicture'], function(err, userData) { // do your update here, can check current data from userData user.setUserField(uid, 'gravatarpicture', 'some_new_url', next); }); }

    I am attempting to update my NodeBB install (hosted on heroku) to the newest version. Initially after I upgraded I could not see the login form at all (the login page was blank except for the nav bar). After doing "$./nodebb reset settings" I can now see the login form but attempting to login results in the server crashing. 2014-11-03T07:04:57.909Z - error: ReferenceError: Password is not defined 2014-11-03T07:04:57.910265+00:00 app[web.1]: at ReplyParser.execute (/app/node_modules/redis/lib/parser/javascript.js:211:22) 2014-11-03T07:04:57.910224+00:00 app[web.1]: at /app/src/routes/authentication.js:258:6 2014-11-03T07:04:57.910227+00:00 app[web.1]: at /app/src/database/redis/hash.js:71:4 2014-11-03T07:04:57.910255+00:00 app[web.1]: at /app/node_modules/redis/index.js:1138:13 2014-11-03T07:04:57.910225+00:00 app[web.1]: at /app/src/database/redis/hash.js:42:4 2014-11-03T07:04:57.910260+00:00 app[web.1]: at ReplyParser.<anonymous> (/app/node_modules/redis/index.js:309:14) 2014-11-03T07:04:57.910261+00:00 app[web.1]: at ReplyParser.emit (events.js:95:17) 2014-11-03T07:04:57.910263+00:00 app[web.1]: at ReplyParser.send_reply (/app/node_modules/redis/lib/parser/javascript.js:300:10) 2014-11-03T07:04:57.910257+00:00 app[web.1]: at try_callback (/app/node_modules/redis/index.js:573:9) 2014-11-03T07:04:57.910258+00:00 app[web.1]: at RedisClient.return_reply (/app/node_modules/redis/index.js:661:13) Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    @babaggeii The write API would contain support for API keys (and later on, access tokens), so there are plans to allow the write API to expose user-specific routes using the same user auth system as well.

    @a_5mith said: A brand new component to replace panels, thumbnails, and wells. Hahah, poor @psychobunny. NodeBB was designed against Bootstrap 2, and Bootstrap 3 introduced panels, which @psychobunny had already created. They looked the same too. Now panels are going away XD
