    After learning that writing a custom script was currently the only way to sift, sort, and filter users by more than one field; and after deciding that I am not up for that right now, I dove back in to slog through my user list for pruning. To my pleasant surprise I found that when I sorted the list by POSTCOUNT it was also sorted by JOINED, automatically! Either a NodeBB angel updated the user list sort functions or I am just seeing life from a different perspective. Yay! Pruning done in no time.

    I would love to hear perspectives on the pros and cons of banning vs deleting spam accounts. As a newbie, I am confused on this subject.

    @baris very thanks This is the JS code I write for new chat with users, thanks to the help you give me require(['autocomplete'], autocomplete => { var modal = bootbox.dialog({ title: '[[flags:start-new-chat]]<i class="fa fa-comments-o" style="margin: 0 7px;"></i>', message: '<input class="form-control input-lg" placeholder="[[user:username]]">', buttons: { cancel: { label: '[[modules:bootbox.cancel]]', className: 'btn-default', callback: () => modal.modal('hide') }, ok: { label: '[[modules:bootbox.ok]]', className: 'btn-primary', callback: () => false } }, onEscape: true, backdrop: true, show: true }); modal.on('shown.bs.modal', () => { var inputEl = modal.find('input'); inputEl.focus(); autocomplete.user(inputEl); modal.find('.btn-primary').click(() => { utils.isUserNameValid(inputEl.val()) ? require(['slugify'], slugify => $.getJSON(`/api/user/${slugify(inputEl.val())}`, data => { app.newChat(data.uid); if (app.user.uid != data.uid) modal.modal('hide'); }).catch(() => app.alertError('[[error:no-user]]')) ) : app.alertError('[[error:invalid-username]]') }); }); });

    @לוי-חביב said in Error entering Mongodb export order.: 'mongodump' is not recognized as an internal or external command, Starting with MongoDB 4.4, the MongoDB Database Tools are now released separately from the MongoDB Server and use their own versioning, with an initial version of 100.0.0. Previously, these tools were released alongside the MongoDB Server and used matching versioning. https://www.mongodb.com/try/download/database-tools?tck=docs_databasetools Once database tools contents are put into the bin, set the path and restart your PC.

    @baris said in Possible to get user id from email from api?: https://community.nodebb.org/api/user/email/[email protected] Hi @baris, how can I get this request sent from a python script and get pre-authenticated via Python? I tried with authorization bearer token but it seems it works only with api/v3, and in api v3 I've no chance to retrieve the user id from an email. Thanks for any help

    Hello, I hope the title is correct and understandable, but anyway my question is this: If there is a possibility that a certain category when they write in it, the post will not be found in 'Recent Posts' or 'Unread', but still those who have a direct link to the topic / post, can enter and see. Thank you so much to all the helpers in this precious forum!

    You can copy the entire database if the database is used only for nodebb mongodump -o /mydir/ mongorestore /mydir/ when transferring a database to another server, you need to copy the database dump and run the command mongorestore /mydir/ The user and all the data will be automatically transferred

    Hello, My website is https://pythonforum.ir/ and you can check each post there. I think the issue goes with RTL styling. Check this picture please. As you see in the left side, the date of post is over the vertical line. This issue goes with each post, like https://pythonforum.ir/topic/35/. I know I can change CSS, but I report this to fix if needed.

    @nodeham I understood what you were asking, but to be honest zxcvbn was implemented by us quite a long time ago, and I no longer remember what the specifics are. However, I can almost guarantee it is nothing as simple as requiring symbols and letters. zxcvbn has its own heuristics for determining password guessability, including such metrics like "closeness" to other simple passwords, or how quickly a computer may brute force guess it (given some assumptions). So I don't think there's a direct comparison between what we have and what you want

    @ddck I'm talking about RSS. It is better to download the article to your website and edit it, and then transfer it to the forum using the RSS plugin

    @aleksei if you change the setting I said then new users will by default automatically be notified when replies are made to any topic they post. There's a different setting for if you want to be notified about replied to a topic you replied to. Again: you can configure the defaults for user settings in the ACP. New users will automatically be assigned the settings you select there. There's no way to make people be notified about every reply to every topic even if it isn't their topic or they didn't reply to it.
