nodebb_theme_vanilla out of date on fresh nodebb install
-
Greetings.
I'm attempting to install nodeBB on a Webfaction node and is slowly making headway. I have never been a "web person" and the transition from typical LAMP based setup is a lot to take in, but the rewards look promising.
Now to the problem:
I installed nodeBB 0.7.0 via npm and slowly but surely gotten things to spin up. However, when I started nodeBB a lot of the plugins that came with the install seem to conflict with the forum. I followed the various tips and hints and ended up removing the lot. Now I'm stuck with nodebb-theme-vanilla not playing nice:25/9 12:11 [19625] - info: [themes] Using theme nodebb-theme-vanilla 25/9 12:11 [19625] - verbose: [plugins] Initializing plugins system 25/9 12:11 [19625] - warn: [plugins/nodebb-theme-vanilla] This plugin may not be compatible with your version of NodeBB. This may cause unintended behaviour or crashing. 25/9 12:11 [19625] - warn: [plugins/nodebb-theme-vanilla] In the event of an unresponsive NodeBB caused by this plugin, run ./nodebb reset plugin="nodebb-theme-vanilla". 25/9 12:11 [19625] - verbose: [plugins] Found 1 js file(s) for plugin nodebb-theme-vanilla 25/9 12:11 [19625] - verbose: [plugins] Loaded plugin: nodebb-theme-vanilla 25/9 12:11 [19625] - info: [plugins] Plugins OK
nodebb-theme-vanilla:
$ grep version node_modules/nodebb-theme-vanilla/package.json "version": "1.0.130",
Any atempt to grab the latest release from github breaks horribly and nodeBB refuses to start. I take it that's due to the theme being developed for a more recent version of nodeBB.
I have updated everything Node related by npm and 'nodebb upgrade'. I have noticed that I suddenly have a node_modules_0.6.x directory alongside the regular node_modules in nodebb/. No idea where that came from and I haven't touched it.
Any pointers?

Why you want to use v0.7.x though?
Is there any special plugin you want to use?Otherwise I would go for the stable v0.8.x branch.
