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!

JaredBusch

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?

cfrancois

@omega I tried and tried... the problem wasn't the plugin at all, but just my browser security that blocked the twitter's widget tracker.

I'm ashamed to fall in this trap during days. So I reduce my security level and everything is fine now.

Thanks.

I've installed and activated nodebb-plugin-ns-embed in a clean 1.12.2 installation but doesn't seem to work.

Also I can't find the plugin configuration to change the options...

The plugin appears to be active correctly.--

Can you help me? Thanks.

PS: I have another nodebb 1.10 forum with nodebb-plugin-youtube-embed and nodebb-plugin-embed-combo and works well. But I've tried to upgrade to 1.12 and nodebb-plugin-embed-combo doesn't works with this version.

Lenko

Ok, I've tried the ./nodebb dev command and appears the same error than the previous messeges. I've installed the plugin via npm and now works ok.

Somebody know how to do this for Bandcamp?

Just a moment...
