    @julian I have the same issue and both ./nodebb logs and output.log and webinstall.log files have nothing. I'm running also running ./nodebb start -dl. It seems build is failing silently and there's no way for me to see what's wrong

    @mario If conversation participants do not perform authentication procedure described in the FEP, the owner will be able to impersonate other participants (or anyone, if conversation is public) by sending an Add(Create(Note)) activity where Create(Note) is forged.The argument can be made that if you participate in a conversation, you necessarily trust the owner (Lemmy et al operate with this assumption), but I'm not convinced that it is true.>In this case the message will be rejected allthough its authenticity is verified.How other servers can verify messages made by remotely authenticated actor? I'm not familiar with OpenWebAuth

    Oh, well npm test does exactly what travis does, you don't need to worry about coverage. Just add a test for any function you add.

    It seems require('socket.io').reqFromSocket(socket) doesn't returns a valid req for AuthController.doLogin.... i want to authenticate via websocket but maybe i will have to do it the old POST way, am i correct?

    @julian said in Debugging nodebb: Looks like you already have a NodeBB instance running... or maybe something else running on port 61236. Try checking out ps aux | grep node and killing off the other NodeBB process, if there is one. Thanks to @ben_lubar I was able to get this working. Turns out I needed to start app.js not nodebb because nodebb would fork and screw up the debugging.

    Yes, you'd need $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', ...)

    The windows docs are wrong in several places. Have you tried running ./nodebb dev?

    @xuelainiao That is tricky, as each individual NodeBB will have separate user databases. You may want to consider adapting the session-sharing plugin so that a cookie is saved on login and read from other the NodeBBs.

    @baris said in what happened in Recent.js ? (Is it possible cause in Database?): Seems like you have a topic with an invalid cid, should be fixed in master. I have changed the branch into master,and it can run well now. Thanks you very much.

    Just a quick note for you all to let you know that v1.6.1 will be dropping next Tuesday, the 10th of October to include some bug fixes as well as a minor security fix that was reported recently. We're also using this patch release as an opportunity to address any issues that people have run into after trying to upgrade to v1.6.0. We do not expect any breaking changes, as this is merely a patch release. Feature freeze comes into effect 3rd of October, code freeze Friday 6th of October.

    Hi all, I am trying to include a registration form in one of our landing pages and I just used the form exactly as used in the /register page and included a script like below. <script> require(['forum/register'], function(register) { register.init(); }); </script> But it doesn't seem to be working. Can some one point me in the right direction? Thanks

    @dangeruss It is possible. You will have to either fork persona to add in your changes or make a new theme. If you need an example of how custom skins can be applied to the theme you can check these 2 themes. https://github.com/pichalite/nodebb-theme-slick https://github.com/pichalite/nodebb-theme-material You can even follow these examples to add a modified version of an existing bootswatch skin.

    I have a habit of splitting my screen up into halves, so I can do productive things on one side, while watching videos on another or a chat, but this causes NodeBB's editor to go into 100% mode on me once it hits a certain breakpoint and I like being able to glance back at posts while I'm composing a reply.

    @pitaj said in Setting up a nodebb development environment: grunt isn't installed globally by default, so run npm i -g grunt then it will work Thank you. Once I installed it I could just run grunt and it worked. It still takes almost 30 seconds to build, but at least it's automatic. This is probably something seasoned nodejs devs know, n00bs like me not so much. Would someone mind updating the documentation since nodebb watch doesn't work anymore?

    There's one more breaking change that I did not find documented anywhere. For our theme we had to change: var templates = require('templates.js'); templates.registerHelper('generateCategoryBorder', helpers.generateCategoryBorder); to var Benchpress = require('benchpressjs'); Benchpress.registerHelper('generateCategoryBorder', helpers.generateCategoryBorder); Not a big deal but some folks might struggle to see why their template helpers don't work on server side.

    @pitaj said in NodeBB v1.6.0 has been released!: I suggest you try it. It has been tested with Gmail, but we haven't been able to test other providers there. The switch offers no explanation and seems not to do anything. The switch enables that configuration, but it only applies if an emailer plugin isn't activated. OK, thanks for the explanation. I think I will stick to the external SES plugin since, as far as I understand, this whole section is about using SMTP for sending e-mails which requires storing credentials in database. We use IAM roles to grant implicit permissions to use SES on instances that run our Forums - and nodebb-plugin-emailer-ses is able to pick that up.

    The data for the menu isn't present in the categories route, that's why nothing shows... seems odd to put menu in that route, any particular reason? People here can likely find some alternative...

    @panagiotis-charalampous Check in the logs directory for any error. I'm guessing authorization is not enabled on the database as it is not enabled by default. Use the link @Duke gave and follow the 'Configure MongoDB' section.
