General Discussion

@PitaJ That's it! Thank you very much

@fgallese yes thank you. i saw it yesterday. I lost a lot of time for that little detail. Digital ocean console uses another character set

I look for a plugin witch can show editable table with users (as rows) and groups (as column)

I believe this is fixed in the latest master branch.

Hi, There are times when access to social media like youtube, vimeo is not allowed and the embedded videos do not play. Is there a way to upload a video directly in the topic? Does a plugin exist for this matter? Any kind of help is appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I am trying to do the same thing. I change the timestamp in mongoDB, but it has no effect on the frontend. Ps.: I changed the timestamp on topic, post and topics:recent. Anyone can help me?

I think a "website" section should be disabled, but about me and location is a good thing. Maybe it's possible to disable using html in this section?

Hello, is it possible the show the total sum of topic views for a category in the homepage ? Currently the homepage shows only the sum of topics and posts, but not of the total views, as views are shown only on a thread-level.

@Cookie said in Reducing SPAM Posts, But Minimizing False Positives: Disabled "About me" and "Signature" profile elements as the "Spam Be Gone" plugin does not check these This, I feel, will help us a lot. We have a lot of bots using this vector and really see essentially no legitimate usage of it.

I don't think there is one but you can write a plugin using the hook filter:router.page. This hook gets called before the actual topic route handler. In your plugin you can just do this: myPlugin.filterRouterPage = function (req, res, next) { const myAnnouncementTopicId = 111; if (req.params && req.params.topic_id && parseInt(req.params.topic_id, 10) === myAnnouncementTopicId) { req.query.sort = 'newest_to_oldest'; } next(); };

@srinik said in How to Add rel="nofollow" to Links?: But, you know as per SEO one should use nofollow tag for unnecessary links. What's an unnecessary link? I think that the best approach is to eliminate unnecessary links, rather than linking and then trying to hurt their SEO after having utilized them as a reference.

Both open and free. You can run it on premises, host it yourself, whatever you like.

@julian said in Audit performance: It does make it easier to stand out when your competitors don't try Haha, often the case.

A blog... maybe, do you have a good vision of what kind of content you would be putting into the blog? If not, probably not. A blog without regular content is pretty pointless and will look strange. A forum... no. Can't imagine how that would work for a portfolio. You don't want an open discussion of the portfolio going on. And you'd be forced to constantly maintain and police the forum for content that isn't appropriate.

Makes sense. Please open an issue on our github.

Mobile view for profile page is not optimised for mobile users. Very well designed stuff. But this small but very very huge thing is left by your designers. Secondly i was not able to install it on Google Cloud.

There is a global chat plugin: https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-global-chat

Hi all, I just want to know if a blog section and/or a forum section would be suitable for a website destined as a professional portfolio. For example, a portfolio website maybe should never include a section about news or sports, as well as it should always include a section about the personal CV, but I don't know if a blog or a forum are ideal or convenient for the portfolio purpose. Thanks,

The only current milestone on GitHub is 1.13.0, so I'd assume that it will wait for that release. If you need it now you can manually modify some NodeBB files: in src/middleware/user.js modify line 135 from user.isModeratorOfAnyCategory(req.uid, next); to user.isAdminOrGlobalMod(req.uid, next); In src/socket.io/posts/tools.js change line 75 from if (!results.isAdmin && !results.isGlobalMod && !results.isModerator) { to if (!results.isAdmin && !results.isGlobalMod) { in src/controllers/accounts/helpers.js change line 144 from if (isAdmin || isSelf || ((isGlobalModerator || isModerator) && !results.isTargetAdmin)) { to if (isAdmin || isSelf || (isGlobalModerator && !results.isTargetAdmin)) { That should remove all privileges from category moderators while leaving them for administrators and global moderators. I'm really looking forward to 1.13.0 though, as I've not only added two things that will be useful for me (not to mention useful changes by NodeBB staff and other contributors. And the refactor), but also because I use the master branch for my dev enviroment the plugin I'm currently writing uses async/await where 1.12.x doesn't support it yet, so to avoid rewriting it twice I had to use util.promisify to make current callback based functions work like async ones EDIT: btw. It seems like 1.13.0 might be close as there are no issues left assigned to this milestone. So while I'm not NodeBB staff and can't tell you when the refactor will be finished and when they think there are enough changes for an update to 1.13 I doubt it's really far away
