    Thanks, @julian. I just finished the hardware migration of these VMs and I want to move them to a more stable hypervisor/host than my former Windows 7 desktop with VMWare workstation, so this is timely advice.

    @julian I wasn't getting any errors when using the scripts property from the plugin.json. They simply weren't included on any of the admin pages.

    @Ted said: @a_5mith, it used to do something, right? Yeah it used to list all the plugins in npm and (I think) allow you to install them. But this was added to core a fair few versions back. Around 0.3 or 0.4. I hope that's the plugin I'm thinking of.

    Shouldn't npm up have updated that? Seems to have solved it though by updating to latest.

    @julian said: Hah! $335 + tax?! With that kind of money, you could buy yourself a brand new Nexus 5 Or a one+ one. I'm actually tempted to sell my galaxy s4 and try and get my hands on the one+ I'd get about £200 for my galaxy s4, which would nearly offset the full cost of the other handset, and its just as good, if not better.

    @arasbm As a recent NodeBB explorer (and NodeJs) I'll suggest you to start with the harder of plugins and themes and it's plugins. As I understand the thing : Plugin is a custom behaviour that could work on every NodeBB forum and that is not based on the theme. It should be configurable (if needed) and not conflict. It try to solves a problem that is experience related. Theme is how you want your NodeBB forum to look like. It's easier to go inside because it's based on a sublime api and it's just css/html and and a bit of JS. If you want you theme to create a custom behaviour that is only applicable to itself then you can because themes are created and treated like plugins. You can take a look at the api on every NodeBB page with {origin}/api/{path} Both plugins and themes can make the use of the api and write content to use after. Take a look of the existing ones and you'll have a good point of view to start developing you owns.

    #BOOM! Fixed Thanks a lot for your help guys and sorry for the false alarm, maybe the plugin in Github should have this warning. I know that is a dumb mistake and most of web developers may be aware of it but just in case.

    @frissdiegurke - to be fair, we now know that it's a core issue on NBB. Your plugin remains supreme!

    Do you mean as a poll where users can vote on a response? If so, there's a poll plugin developed by @Schamper. https://community.nodebb.org/topic/1549/nodebb-plugin-poll-poll-plugin

    I figured this out finally...I had nginx v1.2 which is what's in the default debian 7 repo. Had to add a new key and some new sources from here: http://nginx.org/en/linux_packages.html#distributions Now on nginx v1.6.2 and it seems to be running fine. From what I read there was no websocket support in nginx <1.3
