[nodebb-plugin-custom-pages] Custom Static pages for NodeBB

Дмитрий Хороший

Hi, i have same problem @JonDoe12
Routing works fine but Nodebb doesn't see my tpl files.
I tried to place tpl files into "/NodeBB/node_modules/nodebb-plugin-custom-pages/templates" and "/NodeBB/public/templates" but nothing happens.
Reboot nodebb does n't helps

Updated for NodeBB 0.7.0

New in 0.7x: Routes are no longer automatically added to the header. If you want to add an icon/text link to the header to your new route, visit General -> Navigation and use the drag and drop interface to do so.

Thanks @psychobunny !
However I just looked on github and have the same problem.

When i refresh the page here is what i got :

Internal error.
Oops! Looks like something went wrong!
/plante
Failed to lookup view "plante" in views directory "/root/mynodebb/public/templates"

The issue you linked is slightly different from what you're experiencing. He has a problem with ajaxify'ing into the page, but you're having a problem with cold load refreshes.

1 - Are you on latest NodeBB
2 - Did you restart? Routes and templates are regenerated on initialization

@psychobunny said:

NodeBB 0.7.0

Thanks for your answer,

yep, i got the last one.
In fact, i can see that the page is loading just as the guy say it in the link and then stop loading, and nothing display.
Then when i try to refresh, this is the message that i had ^^.

Figured out how to repro that bug and fixed it in latest version

Awesome, it's working indeed

@psychobunny, can you fix this issue Internal server error on opening page #10?

leksar

AFAIK this problem appears because the plugin doesn't creates the .tpl file in your theme templates. So you can copy homepage.tpl from nodebb-plugin-custom-pages/templates to [yourtheme]/templates directory and name it like you named your page in ACP (mypage.tpl) as temporary solution.

@psychobunny when I install the plugin, I get the same internal error as reported in issue #10. For example:

error

Henry Wright

@psychobunny which version are you referring to?

npm install nodebb-plugin-custom-pages still produces this error. Is there a more recent version of the plugin available?

Guiri

@henrywright Try this:

cd ~/NodeBB/node_modules
npm remove nodebb-plugin-custom-pages && rm -rf nodebb-plugin-custom-pages
git clone https://github.com/rbeer/nodebb-plugin-custom-pages
git checkout tplCopyIssue

Henry Wright

@Guiri doesn't the clone URL need a .git on the end?

Henry Wright

@leksar I tested this (copying the template file to the location where it's missing) and it worked. Thanks for sharing

Henry Wright

@leksar Actually, I found a problem with that. After a forum restart, mypage.tpl is automatically deleted which results in the error appearing again.

Guiri

Yes, I forgot the .git extension. You might need to manually delete and re-create the template in the system with the new branch. I don't remember, unfortunately, but it's been stable for a week now without a hiccup.

Anybody know if there's a clever way to override the global sidebar using bootstrap or CSS? Since there's no longer a homepage route, my sidebar is in the global tpl. But for the custom page, I'd really like to be able to replace those.
