Hi Community,

I've recently upgraded from 1.12.x to 1.16.x and I've done it first on a testing environment and, upon success, on production environment.

Today, after a few days from the upgrade, I've realized that on the production instance the list of categories from category-drop down menu, is completely missing either on front-end (typical case when you want to move a thread) and on back-end (typical case when you want to set privileges).

I've no clue what could be the case and how to get it fixed.

Thanks, Riccardo

A small plugin that allows you to join a group with the same name as a category directly from the category view.

Manual installation:

$ npm install nodebb-plugin-category-join-group

The data for the menu isn't present in the categories route, that's why nothing shows... seems odd to put menu in that route, any particular reason? People here can likely find some alternative...

There are not hierarchical permissions in NodeBB. If you would like to see hierarchical permissions, you could open an issue on our Github page and request such a feature.

I do believe we have a way of copying permissions between groups, so that could help you out in doing what you want.

@pichalite

hadnt noticed it... dang it lol i was thinking about group mods.

Ability to collapse trees in ACP preview for Categories.

@julian said:

Pagination may be a bad idea because we make the categories sortable on this list.

I not understand, but thanks, you everytime help for me. I created issue.

An issue detailing this bug should probably be submitted on Github.

Category data is not avaiable in the header, if you want to use it you will have to use the hook filter:middleware.renderHeader and add the data.

Hi,

I noticed that in the unread page, if i have some "legacy" posts that is unread, and subsequently the category is disabled, it will still remain in the unread page.

However, when one clicks on the post, it will show a 404 error.

This should do it I think.

@Guiri I use 450px x 450px and set them to cover.

@psychobunny sounds good, I've finally got around to looking at theming, got a great (probably) idea for a theme. 😆

Next theme may have a more classic homepage as well.

@a_5mith no problem 🙂 this is just an idea for a feature...
