Feature Requests

You can probably do it with a cron job and an sh script

@Julian Sorry for the bump, but back then I didn't understand it and let it go, but now I need it for an other nodebb community 😛

Must I do this in ACP or with the nano thing?

Any chance of having this added as a feature?

Is there anyway for mods or admin to read the user's private messages?

Would also be interested in this as we may need to moderate user's interactions when they are behaving poorly toward one another.

I would think that to do this you would want one of the users in the conversation to have a "Report Conversation" button. When pressed, it would say "By pressing this, you acknowledge that you are sending a copy of this conversation to a community moderator and the contents of this private communication will be exposed to a third party." Then, once pressed, the admin either gets emailed a record, or gets an interface to view the record, or maybe gets added as a transparent (or not transparent) third party to the "room".

There are many test and spam accounts that we delete and nextUid remains the same. I wonder if we could have a feature to update nextUid to the next available Uid automatically or something.

Would be nice to have ajax live search in DB Search and in topic box so the user can avoid posting duplicate or similar topic.

Can you please make the front page appearance like discourse? Please add automatic backup option in google drive and FTP to vps Please add automatic cloudflare support, because we are facing problems everytime we are installing new nodebb. Admin login does not work with cloudflare.

I'm using NodeBB as an interface for an app, more like a crowdsourcing hub. The forum is okay, but sometimes the communication is more dynamic and people have to either speak on the phone, use other apps or meet in person.

For new forums or for forums with small user base, a cross-forum chat room would be very engaging.
For the UI I'm imagining something like DC++ looked like in the old days.

This idea fits in different scenarios. At least in mine it does. The chat room would be an extension of the forum.

How do you find the idea?

This is important.
Export logs from the forum in csv format or anything else.
(admin panel / advanced tab)

@PitaJ said in Followers - require my permission before users start following me:

....... as it won't stop anything.

Exactly. Besides threads/posts submitted on our private categories are not displayed on my profile.

Cheers

This can be useful

Pls add One-Click Upgrade option like Discourse

I think adding a user style change settings in nodebb would be a good option. Especially that other forum engines like discourse have this feature for a long time.

@baris Yeah, I saw that. Check it out in action here: https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/703/join-the-triplea-team

If you hover on the avatar, that card appears but if you click the avatar, the old one shows up too.

Is there a way we can turn off the default card system?

I've been struggling with this and I've posted before and the solution was to run a script and a plugin to have all users Ignore a category. That causes a whole other set of issues.

The situation is that we have categories that are very noisy and of very low value to anybody but the (usually only 2) participants. For these categories I would like the following "Quiet Mode":

Topics do not appear in All Unread, All Recent, nor All Popular Topics do not appear in Suggested Topics nor any other widget list Topics do not appear in the email digest Topics would not be considered "Ignored" so they would still show up in pick lists so that you can filter on them.

If you're good with this, I can file something in Github. I wanted to post here first before.

This would be in lieu of https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/7008 or 7008 would be in lieu of this.

Currently, restriction on email verification will stop a user from posting replies, but not reading.

@PitaJ Yeah, I know. I came across the resize mechanism in the code last night so, there is some dimension handling already but yeah, this ain't easy.

However, what could be easy is a placeholder image, like a 50x50 generic image that's used for everything. Then you at least know something is there.

I would love to move it. But I'm not sure if it is possible.

Disabling it for global moderator should be possible. I'll have a look at it. There is still several things I'd want to do with this plugin. The name is actually really the target. I just really wanted the mod badges in for the maintenance window I had to upgrade to 1.10.2 🙂
