    Because you ran the forum without indexes you have documents that violate the index constraints. You will have to remove these documents for the create index command to work.

    @Panzz said in Quoted posts: Quotes should involve resources. With the current citation mechanism, if the user deletes the original post, the quoted content will still exist. The ideal mechanism is that if the user deletes the original post, the quoted content should also be deleted. In MOST forum contexts: no way! Seriously, that would break the fundemental context of a forum. Especially in all areas that follow the GDPR types of privacy law. (Since you are allowed and recomended to delete all your data, if you leave a service). I´m willing to accept there are some areas for forums that mimic SoMe, where this makes sense, but most forums are content- and conversations oriented, and nonone should be able to one-sided sensor a community. This is a Fedi problem, and need a tailored Fedi solution.

    Your don't need the header in your template. You need to add it like this: router.get('/calendar', middleware.buildHeader, renderPageHandler); router.get('/api/calendar', renderPageHandler); https://github.com/pitaj/nodebb-plugin-calendar/blob/1.0.x/src/lib/controllers.js#L109-L110

    It should cache for an hour, I think (based on a quick look at nodebb package manager code). So yes - you have to wait a bit before the nbbpm refreshes. You can just install the updated version manually by using npm install <package name> from the command line in NodeBB folder.

    Use grunt: https://docs.nodebb.org/configuring/running/#grunt-development It will automatically rebuild what is necessary and restart when you make a change.

    @julian No worries. It's just slightly alarming upgrading a production instance only to find out you've accidentally gone all the way to a pre-release. We've only recently taken over our current NodeBB forum from someone else and I'm not familiar with the workflow yet. I've made a note in our internal docs so it doesn't happen again. I was just wondering if I'd mis-read the docs or if that was the intended workflow.

    Hi @baris Thanks for the reply. We're on Redis here instead of Mongo. Sorry, I should have specified. I did the same thing in Redis, It appears that we had a lot of "blank" notes which were just timestamps - I've removed these (or rather, I converted them over to objects with a timestamp property) and it appears to have resolved this for now. Not sure going by the timestamps exactly what caused these notes to be added however, but I didn't want to lose the fact that something happened at that point. Thanks for the guideance

    Oh, hi! Are you asking because we've started cutting pre-releases? The pre-releases are marked in such a way that it should be easy (well, easier to distinguish)... they have an orange label in GitHub, and they always have a dash in the version number. For example, while v1.13.4 is not out yet, v1.13.4-0, v1.13.4-1, v1.13.4-2, and v1.13.4-3 are, but they are all pre-releases and can be ignored. If you're being notified via email from GitHub, it will also contain the word "Pre-release" in the title, and so you can ignore it: [NodeBB/NodeBB] Pre-release v1.13.4-3 - v1.13.4-3 Hope that helps!

    Still could use assistance if anyone can offer. The new forums we are developing using nodebb is delayed until the next release, but if someone cant point me in the right direction I would highly appreciate it.

    @Casey-Chen-Lai You'll want to translate to zh-TW, which is our traditional chinese variant. Don't ask me why it's TW and not HK. zh-TW is available for translation in Transifex, let me know if you run into additional issues

    @PitaJ said in Can’t sign up into my nodebb site using proxy: @scottalanmiller it sounded like he was referring to a 3rd party proxy. Oh, I see. A very specific proxy for which the site is not configured.

    That should work I think, you can also try putting your scripts in the ACP at /admin/appearance/customise#custom-js

    Hey all, I'm helping someone set up a new community for a not for profit and they'll need some custom functionality to hit their goals. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to use a plugin etc to add in html/css if a post or reply has a specific tag. Short version is: People will be discussing different things and the org wants to allow certain conversations but to auto add in a disclaimer/change the post format a little for specific post tags. IE: If the post has the tag: "marvel" on it, it'd show a div/text at the bottom of the post/reply saying "This person loves marvel". New to NodeBB, not entirely new to everything else.

    Hmm, ./nodebb build --verbose should give more info, don't think it displays the order of plugins though.
