@gaasg No problem, you can click their name in users of the ACP and it takes you to the same place, do bear in mind that they can change their name back if they wish to.

When "community.nodebb.org" was updating, nginx servered a "502 Bad Gateway" text error page instead of a custom page displaying something like: "We will be back soon". I recommend that NodeBB creates a static page that is directly servered by nginx when NodeBB is down. This page should use the exact same theme as you currently have selected for your site. I think the link to nginx should be automated as much as possible (maybe ask [yes]/no permission in setup). But if it can't be there needs to be an easy tutorial on how to link nginx to this static page. The static page should be able to be overridden. It should be updated every time the theme changes. Thoughts?

You can explicitly follow a topic, perhaps you should also be able to explicitly mute one?

@hek What is the problem, the jumping doesn't actually take you to the bottom?

Nope. It loads jumps around and I end up at the top post. But it is intermittent. Sometimes it works.

I'll try clearing the bookmark (is it stored locally?) to see if it helps.

@Gateman said:

How to do that?

Not implemented, but if it is, it should be optional, a simple on or off.

http://pastie.org/private/m5rujypbiwdf9xj55ysa6w Not sure if this is useful but I found it in the nginx error log

Third-party email server is still encouraged (e.g. Mandrill, PostageApp). I don't believe anybody uses the local email plugin, but I could be wrong!

I suppose it would be very much like downtime you'd see if you were upgrading any large CMS.

Have you tried using nginx to automatically send users to a pre-determined, statically-hosted error page if the connection to NodeBB 502s?

@psychobunny sounds good, I've finally got around to looking at theming, got a great (probably) idea for a theme. 😆

Oy, topic permissions are a huge undertaking... I'm out sure how nicely it'll play with the Frontend either...

Forgot the css in my pull request, not 100% on where to put it, but

div.content hr { margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 5px; }

@scottalanmiller #2 I have solved through jquery. I added a button to my forum which changes the body class. So my forum goes from

to

Thanks a bunch!

@ffmad You can modify the HTML by customising the template in the theme. The theme files are located in node_modules/nodebb-theme-vanilla and node_modules/nodebb-theme-lavender

Best bet would be to fork the lavender theme and make your changes in a new theme for your site 🙂

that's what i've done ^^

what i said is that it lacks the 'topic title' in lavender theme

Is there a simple way to make a simple recent posts ticker?
Something maybe like this?

@julian

@psychobunny Well, since you mentioned it 😉

@julian @psychobunny anyone? 🙂

@Schamper How would one customize say, the custom-homepage widget to show only to users who are not logged in then?

Edit: Figured it out 🙂

Like this?

Before we can do this, we have to actually implement topic title searching properly 😄

Bingo.

As plugin I'd like to be able to either get a list of activated plugins (maybe also version) or to send a request whether there is an activated plugin of given name (If you're aware of security issues 😛 )

I think you can call Plugins.isActive to see if a specific plugin is activated. Otherwise you can query db.getSetMembers('plugins:active', callback) for the actual list
