Hello there,

after some time i want to take a second attempt to start a successful forum.
My idea was the following: A forum that allows for uncomplicated communication of ideas and allows users to sell their ideas to other foum users.

I set up my page with the help of a friend: my forum

I didnt take into account the problems to get the ball rolling; means I have no users

Note that there is no payment method right now, it is prettmuch only a normal forum.

Now to what i have planned to be the "second attempt" version:

In the region where i want to start, there is a company called Tobit that developed a software named "chanys".
One reason for me to use it is the adaption in my region, id guess atleast 70% of the people in a distance of 20 km have this app on their smartphone.
It is also adapted further i think they have serveral million downloads of their app.
It has imo also alot of features that will be helpful to my project for example:

-Accounting
-verification

payment

Note: the "cayns" project is also open source.

"Cayns" offers also a website building tool to easily implement their features "chanys".
My easy hack (that describes my lvl of programming skills) would be to do an iframe onto my forum ^^.
I know thats really bad (and it doesnt work without changing settings).

What are other ways to make a better MVP?
Thank you!

Is anyone using WeChat to scan and log in? The plugin seems to be malfunctioning. Does anyone have a solution? Thx.

My scene description:
If I copy content from other web pages into the editor, it is usually a mixture of text and images on the web page, and I find that images cannot be uploaded, only text can be pasted. I need to upload pictures one by one, which is very troublesome.

The help I need:
How to automatically upload pasted images after pasting content into the editor? Thx.

Some interesting feature requests can be found here:

In short:

proposal to move all language files to Transifex and allow translators to work on translating plug-ins (pre-installed/default/bundled plug-ins were mentioned), 123456 vs. 123 456 as common i18n problem not only for Korea and Japan, some other shortcomings from Korean user point of view. Link Preview Image Korean translation by NavyStack · Pull Request #93 · NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-2factor

First and foremost, I wish to express my sincere appreciation for the development of such an outstanding plugin. In my role as the coordinator for NodeBB's Korean and Japanese translations, I have strived to maintain consistency in wording with the primary translation project. At present, numerous default plugins of NodeBB come pre-installed. However, it appears that this applies not only to administrators but also to end-users. Therefore, it would be advantageous to enable the management of built-in plugin translations on Transifex as well. While I currently utilize NodeBB in production, there are instances where certain strings or plugins remain untranslatable, often exposing my users, who are not proficient in English, to such content. Hence, I would kindly request your consideration on this matter. Below, I have outlined several queries regarding the plugin, along with suggestions for enhancement: Some applications use a space character when presenting a 6-digit number. For instance, 123456 may appear as 123 456 when copied to the clipboard. Given the increasing prevalence of users utilizing this feature via a browser extension plugin, I believe enhancing the user experience by disregarding space characters and accepting numbers solely would be beneficial. There are instances where 2FA (Two-Factor Authentication) needs to be input more than once due to specific circumstances. For instance, upon pasting it into a browser or application, users are prompted to re-enter their username and password, even if the values are accurate. This could be due to either rapid typing or previous input. Personally, I circumvent this inconvenience by pressing and holding the CTRL key while performing CTRL + V. (But... sometimes I face Username and Password form page.)However, this workaround may prove inconvenient for the average user. While acknowledging the inherent trade-off between security and convenience, I believe there is room for improvement in this regard, particularly concerning 2FA. Occasionally, upon entering my username, password, and 2FA code, I find myself logged in as a non-member pop-up. This issue warrants attention for resolution. Your attention to these matters would be greatly appreciated, and I am confident that addressing these concerns would significantly enhance the usability and functionality of the plugin. I am currently using NodeBB in a production environment. Hence, updating without translations results in English displaying as is, akin to a bleeding edge situation. I kindly request measures to improve this. You can verify my commit timestamps, which reflect my working pace. There's ample time to pre-translate adequately for any additions. Your cooperation in presenting translation sentences prior to adding new strings would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your support.

I am continually frustrated that the "Chat" link in right sidebar shows me only latest chats, when I actually want the full chat interface page. An "all" link would fix this easily enough.!2024-04-05_11h13_07.png

I suggested this a long time ago, eh persona times, and thought I posted it here but maybe not so posting now / again.

I want to see the post Edit button brought up to post-actions top level as a UI default, this will mean a user no longer has to make two clicks

3dots > select from drop down, edit

Making a post edit a single click action

I would also propose rebuilding the vote button so that to vote it becomes a simpel

click to vote on | click to vote off

So it only need one element, not three. This cleans up two really unnecessary buttons, and come on, let's think about it, which gets used more Edit or Vote?

Obviously it's edit, so why hide it? Let's reduce the click overhead here, reduce it to one click instead of two. Now while this totally suits my workflow, I often hit this button 2/3 times after a post, I'm a heavy editor of posts, the reality is voting is often a fire and forget action, most probably done once.

In the ACP on the widget page, to the left of Save changes it would be highly convenient to have a Disable/Enable Widgets option.

Unless I've missed another way to do that, this would be useful to avoid having to remove you widget configuration to test things in an on/off manner.

Possible to add forum topic prefix like this image.

I need this so that I can test my Helm chart

There are more than 8000 users at present. Does nodeBB have a plugin to create users in bulk or tell me how to do it

The Persona and Harmony themes support a feature where previews and links to all replies to a given post are accessible in the post itself, in a dropdown element. Will this by chance be available in the Lavender and Peace themes as well? This is what the feature looks like:

I don't know how long NodeBB has had it, but it is a very cool feature. It's something I've always hoped for in discussion forums.

Thanks

How can I implement a function that some content is visible only when users logined and replied to this post?
The env is that some users uploads files but just want the one who replied to see,not every user or even verified user,but reply to this post .This is important in some scene.

I use different logos for each version of my site, so it would be great to have the ability to do this within nodebb without coding hacks.

What is <details> <summary>?

The HTML Details Element (<details>) creates a disclosure widget in which information is visible only when the widget is toggled into an "open" state. A summary or label can be provided using the <summary> element. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/details.

This is a feature I enjoy in Github, see this informative and succinct post about using this feature when writing GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM): Using <details> <summary> expandable content on GitHub with Markdown

I would like to be able to use this or a similar feature while authoring nodebb posts.

Hello, is it possible to integrate this into NodeBB? Or is there a plugin for something like this?

When creating a multilingual forum, I faced the problem of distributing content in different languages.
I liked how this problem was solved in invision power board.
To create a multilingual forum, I need to develop a plugin that disables unnecessary languages and adds additional fields to the platform settings for adding content in the required languages. To begin with, I need to have additional fields for the names and descriptions of categories, as is done in invision power board. Who can do it, send your suggestions in the chat

Hey,

Not sure if that's the right category, but here goes.

I want to implement a plugin which makes it so the email addresses of registered users are stored hashed for privacy reasons.

I think I can use action:user.email.confirmed to overwrite the email with its hashed version.
I want to still support password reset and to that end I want to use the hashed provided email to get the uid of the user.

Would it be possible to add a hook for filtering the email provided to getUidByEmail here?

Additionally, in order to use the non-hashed email as the address, it would also require passing the user provided email in params here.

Wdyt?

See here for more details.

Thanks!

It'd be awesome to have the 2FA plugin support FIDO2 devices for 2FA authentication. Like yubikeys, solos etc.

Is there such a possibility? Can it be developed?

Hi everyone,
Hi how we can postbit like xf or vbulletin ?

Is it possible to do this?
