When I see: Block IP Delete User with Content Permission for post ONLY registered and verified

@baris Sorry about that - yup, that got it. Thanks so much for the clue bats!

@huige Right now this site and https://community.openbeta.io are both running v4.

Hello, as the title says, how do I calculate the total size of files in use in nodebb? I'm trying to use a CDN like s3, but when I searched, I found that I had to read all objects in the bucket and calculate the file size like this. Is there no other way to find out the total size of files in use in nodebb? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32192391/how-do-i-find-the-total-size-of-my-aws-s3-storage-bucket-or-folder

@julian Mail sent. Thank you for replying to this post.

wow, i got it. problem from this option in config.json "bcrypt_rounds": "21",

@eeeee the reason is because currently your reverse proxy setup is forwarding all requests to NodeBB, including that of extras2. So you will need to either adjust your proxy config to not do that for that folder, or update NodeBB to handle it.

@ultranurd oh wow! Lots to catch up on, then!! As an artist, he’s really multifaceted. There’s a lot of experimentation and crossing of genres.

You can also setup rewards in the ACP at /admin/extend/rewards to give the user reputation. Although that's less common.

You create subcategories in the admin panel, you can select a parent while creating the category. Or you can set it in the edit category page. It's also possible to drag and drop a category under another.

@baris Thank you for your help.

@ccd2s looks like NodeBB isn't reading from the right database

@julian thanks for working on nodebb! It's really great.

@baris i don't think so! I see this case: System load slow after you login admin, it effect all everyone. System fast if you don't login. i see a log: WARNING in ./node_modules/fetch-cookie/node_modules/tough-cookie/lib/utilHelper.js 4:11-26 Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'util' in '/home/nodebb/node_modules/fetch-cookie/node_modules/tough-cookie/lib' BREAKING CHANGE: webpack < 5 used to include polyfills for node.js core modules by default. This is no longer the case. Verify if you need this module and configure a polyfill for it. If you want to include a polyfill, you need to: - add a fallback 'resolve.fallback: { "util": require.resolve("util/") }' - install 'util' If you don't want to include a polyfill, you can use an empty module like this: resolve.fallback: { "util": false } ERROR in node:url Module build failed: UnhandledSchemeError: Reading from "node:url" is not handled by plugins (Unhandled scheme).

Is it possible to simply show a video from another computer on the network? There is a computer with nodebb on the Internet and there is a computer with an HDD. It is necessary to make it so that users can send their videos to the computer with the HDD and everyone can watch it. Video files should not be copied to the computer with nodebb. How to do this?

Not sure if related, but [image: 1727957706381-8316a5d1-85c0-47c5-a0f1-205a6eb48b97-image.png] Installs fine via CLI

Is there a way to set up a Time-To-Live for a post? For example, I want to have an option for a post to display for exactly 'X' hours (selectable between 1 and 72 hours) after it is posted and then not display anymore automatically. Post still in the database and still viewable by poster (only), but gone from main forum.

problem solved today, thank baris

As @baris said, yes, definitely! NodeBB is still the same great community engine underneath. The ActivityPub work is simply one facet of NodeBB that will hopefully provide some benefit to those interested, but if that's not your cup of tea you can leave it disabled.
