nodebb-plugin-custom-homepage does not work with nodebb v1.6.0

frgilb

I am using nodebb-plugin-custom-homepage on my board, which currently runs nodebb v1.5.2. I tried to update to v1.6.0 but the homepage is empty. Only the global footer is shown.

In the nodebb log I can see, that the widgets on the homepage are rendered. But neither in the nodebb log nor in the browser I see an error message.

Is this a known issue?

I believe that plugin has been superceded by nodebb-plugin-custom-pages, can you try that one?

Ah! Thank you for this hint. I am already using nodebb-plugin-custom-pages for other static pages on my board. I did not realize that it can be used for homepage as well .

Sure, I will gives this a try. But I am confident that it will solve it.

Many thanks for this excellent board SW you have created, it is really awesome! And the same holds for your support!

Thanks for the kind words

Yes -- with the custom pages plugin, you can create your home page... and then under "General -> Home Page" you can set your home page to that page (or a custom route, probably)
