chown -R omega:omega ~/nodebb_path

Setup was done under root user afaik.

Hmmm after running chown I saw this internal error.

npm remove nodebb-plugin-ns-embed

And

npm install nodebb-plugin-ns-embed

commands like git and ./nodebb should not be used with root access (sudo or elevated privileges). It will cause problems with different ownership of files NodeBB needs access to

Ok thank you - I'll create a sudo user and then re-run the installation from scratch.

I've forked and replied to this here - https://community.nodebb.org/topic/13685/trouble-shooting-new-plugins-installed-not-working-what-gives

I didn't want to derail this topic further with my issues.

Due to all the fantastic help available from this great nodeBB community - the above original solution as posted by @The-Worms to my problem, I can now confirm works beautifully!

@The-Worms Thanks, works fine!

We've installed this plugin and it works fine (thank you !!!). However, we've noticed that users can't post a youtube/instagram/etc. link without it being automatically embedded, even if they use the "link" option on the composer. (This option is useful when you want to post a list of youtube links but don't want embedded videos taking up the whole page.) Is there any way to prevent that from happening ?

@shinyidol I think you install the older version of the plugin.

shinyidol

@Nicolas strange. I installed it via the plugin manager

omega

@shinyidol I'm getting the identical output as your posted log.

I upgraded a clean 1.12.1 nodeBB to 1.12.2 and tried to install this plugin, and it's not appearing. Used plugin manager too.

Got this error

@Nicolas can you provide any help?

omega

@Nicolas Purely a Bump and to add my @ to the mix - Is there any sight of a fix or declaration of any kind on this issue?

Tx!

I had to install it from command line. It was not working from the GUI.

I haven't installed plugin via cmd line yet, is this the exact method you used?

Plugins - NodeBB Documentation

Documentation portal for NodeBB Forum Software

(docs.nodebb.org)

omega

I tried plugin install via cmd line as per doc.nodebb guide linked above does not seem to have worked.

Terminal spit this out (removed code)

UPDATE: Tried it again, using historical advice from @The-Worms (back up the thread - click here) this time using

sudo npm remove nodebb-plugin-ns-embed

npm install nodebb-plugin-ns-embed

Now I can see the plugin with nBB v1.12.2 and it works too + to have everything in one place next time I forget what I did or anyone else, here is the Twitter code that works for custom embed.

Watch:

(?:<a.*?)?(?:https?:\/\/)?(?:twitter\.com)\/([^\/\"\s]*)\/status\/([^\/\"\s]*)(\/photo\/\d|)(?:.*?\/a>)?

Replace: 

<div class='embed-wrapper'>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><a href="https://twitter.com/$1/status/$2?ref_src=twsrc^tfw"></a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> 
</div>

Hello I copied this code, but no message appeared for a tweet.
I managed to make work youtube, peertube, vimeo etc... without a problem, even slideshare. But for twitter, I'm wondering if I'm not missing something.

As suggested to me. Did you restart and rebuild or run via cod line - ./nodebb build

After you installed the plugin?
