    @julian said: That's a shame, really, because Outlook (and Outlook Express) was just so terrible at managing email. I got my parents switched off of that years ago though, so haven't looked at Thunderbird since. These days nearly everyone uses web mail. Whether it is Zimbra or OWA, the quality of webmail has gotten so good that rarely do you want to do anything else except on your mobile devices. And if you want to go offline, Exchange uses to expect to go to Outlook and Zimbra has its own client too. The number of "working offline on non-mobile devices IMAP users" are dwindling. Thunderbird and Evolution cover that gap pretty well.

    var meta = module.parent.require('./meta');. Then, meta.config may have the configuration (might need to double-check that). var nconf = module.parent.require('nconf'); will allow you to hook into the configuration utility we use: nconf.get('url') returns the full url. Unfortunately not -- our hooks are designed to keep the information passed in to a minimum. The posts.parse hook is called whenever a piece of content needs to be "parsed like a post". It is not strictly a hook that is called whenever a topic is loaded. Perhaps you can look into filter:post.getPosts?

    @Mauricio (slightly off-topic) but this system might be relevant to YoReparo. it's called Curiosume and it is a learn/teach matching system that utilizes Wikipedia to classify skills. es possible se puede reparar cualquier cosa en realidad con Curiosume. more information about it here: http://www.ingenesist.com/general-info/curiosume-integrating-social-innovation.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wCK2jEMKsg i think there is a lot of optimization still possible to make NodeBB run faster. there is still redundancy in the client/server protocol but this is easily improved. i am interested in how to scale node web services in a completely distributed network, aka P2P or mesh network. to do this, servers must communicate and synchronize data (but not necessarily all data).

    Software have done this for years. I have first hand experience of Magento, they do a community edition, which is more up to date, with more plugins, and better support via forums. Or you can pay £10,000 a year to talk to someone in America (it's not a local call, so add the cost of calling America) for older (but apparently more stable) software, with fewer features.

    Users can opt-out of the daily digest by changing the option in their user profile settings. We changed the behaviour to be opt-in instead of out-out, as people did not wish to receive emails every day If your NodeBB does not do this, then consider upgrading.

    I'm trying to create some html with a variable that can be adjusted. <p>Bank Account:$</p> <p id="bankaccount">1000</p> Not sure how I would do this. I want the value of 1000 to appear beside of Bank Account:$. However since both are in separate p tags, I can't figure it out. I would also like to save the value to a javascript variable. EDIT* I figured to just create the entire string in Javascript. Easier to piece together.

    Having a pretty poor evening with my migration. Nothing to do with NodeBB really, I migrated my domain name over and forgot that that would remove my email accounts. D'oh. Guest posting enabled on a board gives you two Reply buttons. Clicking on the checkbox to the left of a guest post to delete it took about 8 refreshes. Then the big one in the other topic I made, unless I'm missing it. Mentions from guests appear as global:guest mentioned you in %2 after the category has been purged. Not so much a bug though. As I don't believe mentions check they're still relevant. Will report back if I see any more. Ok, I'm getting an intermittent restart happening as well. It's more or less random, no errors in the logs apart from one about spam-be-gone maybe not being compatible. Have made an issue about that on the githubs.

    @igbuend Thank you for the suggestion. I did look into Reaction but it is still in development and doesn't seem to have the flow or the ability to organize large number of products in a good way.

    @julian I think the issue could be further back than this, as www.35hz.co.uk gets server not found, not the nginx landing page... I've created a record in Digital OCean for it, but it's made no difference, so not sure where to go from here. I can't think of anything else at this point. 35hz.co.uk exists and works, I've got that bit, but how on earth can www.35hz.co.uk not exist. Ahh, no wait, I might have it. Just a moment. I've set up a CNAME record for www in 35hz.co.uk. That according to google, should work. EDIT: Do you ever get that feeling, when you've worked so long on something, and it finally works, you're not sure if you're imaginging it. I'm having one of those moments. The /forum/ redirect didn't work, but, quite frankly. I'm not even remotely bothered about it.
