    They say it is a university town. I've never been to Kingston myself... I think the VIA stops there on the way to Montréal...

    Hello @mrneilypops! NodeBB plans range from $35 to $100, depending on the feature set. $75 and up plans give you advantages like custom DNS forwarding (so you can use something like mypersonaldomain.com instead of myapp.nodebb.com) and daily backups. All plans come with use of the support ticket system, so you can reach us for support for individual instances. If you have any other questions, please give us a shout at [email protected]

    Technically, there is no need to run npm update for packages other than nodebb-* packages. So all you really need to do is npm install. However, you'd want to update the nodebb plugins/themes, so: cd /path/to/your/nodebb/install git pull npm install cd node_modules ls nodebb-* | xargs npm update // I do not take responsibility for this command, if it burns your house down... cd ../ ./nodebb start If you run into errors specified by #6, please do an npm rebuild to patch that right up.

    No, the default is "off", but keep in mind that if a category has NO restrictions at all, then it is globally accessible.

    @julian I did actually use git stash then git pop and my whole template was broken for some reason. I didn't spend enough time to figure out if it was caching issues as there's only like 3 lines I changed in 3 files so it was quick to recover from, but I was thinking for the future. I did rename some of the categories to use them - however - my forum is only using 4 right now. I'd suggest that the NodeBB install only come with 1 or 2 pre configured categories if you won't allow deletion of any existing ones. Can I delete them from the redis database in the meantime? They are all indeed empty.

    Hi, My website is developed using node.js as an express app. Could someone give me any pointers on how I could use NodeBB's user signup / auth system / user session in my express app too? Is it possible to hook into the NodeBB app so it and my website app run in the same node process and share user session that way? Or would it be better to separate the node processes and communicate user info another way?
