NodeBB's topic list layout is great for written and media-light content, although it is less ideal for categories which predominately feature pictures. I recently ran into this issue with the Pics and Trips category on the OpenBeta Community. While we've made some much-needed TLC and improvements so that topic thumbnails are better handled and displayed, I did not feel they were adequately prioritised for this particular category. So I wrote the Category Masonry plugin for NodeBB!

@[email protected] that's a good point. Both Lemmy and NodeBB implemented FEP 1b12, which is why those category/community actors share content. So yes, NodeBB's category actors also only share content, and don't produce any of their own.

@codenamejessica no problems. It's standard GET and POST variable passing which works fine with same-origin

@[email protected] You can start a new thread by mentioning the category directly in a new topic. NodeBB sends Create(Note) from the author, and then five seconds later sends Announce(Create(Note)), Announce(Note), and Add(Note). Hubzilla may be misinterpreting the last three.

Additional pages have been added to the NodeBB documentation regarding the following items: Post visibility — how NodeBB handles incoming activities with public and non-public visibility, and how they are represented in NodeBB. Conversational Contexts — how NodeBB builds out a conversational context when parsing incoming content.

Hello, I am working on integrating SAML in my nodebb forum with my paradiso server. they have done from their side and provide me an xml file that has this fields:- <?xml version="1.0"?> <md:EntityDescriptor xmlns:md="Some confidential details" xmlns:ds="Some confidential details" entityID="Some confidential details">   <md:IDPSSODescriptor protocolSupportEnumeration="Some confidential details">     <md:KeyDescriptor use="Some confidential details">       <ds:KeyInfo xmlns:ds="Some confidential details">         <ds:X509Data>           <ds:X509Certificate>"Some confidential details"</ds:X509Certificate>         </ds:X509Data>       </ds:KeyInfo>     </md:KeyDescriptor>     <md:KeyDescriptor use="Some confidential details">       <ds:KeyInfo xmlns:ds="Some confidential details">         <ds:X509Data>           <ds:X509Certificate>"Some confidential details"</ds:X509Certificate>         </ds:X509Data>       </ds:KeyInfo>     </md:KeyDescriptor>     <md:SingleLogoutService Binding="Some confidential details" Location="Some confidential details"/>     <md:NameIDFormat>"Some confidential details"</md:NameIDFormat>     <md:SingleSignOnService Binding="Some confidential details" Location="Some confidential details"/>   </md:IDPSSODescriptor> </md:EntityDescriptor> and i am doing it with the nodebb-plugin-sso-saml and Passport-SAML but stuck as i am not getting the response please guide us. how can i integrate SAML as a sp

What about Design v4, is the same like 3.11.0? Is there Grid categories Options with images? Invision Community tests v5 Beta 6. Here some Forums https://www.fanclubs.org/ https://jimiwikman.se/ https://www.internazionale.fr/ https://krscanski.chat/

@julian yes

No idea... someone? anyone?

The following categories are now federating: NodeBB Blog (@blog) — I'm not sure why I only just federated this one now, it makes so much sense to! Technical Support (@support) Developer FAQ (@developer-faq)

Adding the menu item into the template doesn't create a express route, you have to do that separately. https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-quickstart/blob/master/library.js#L37 I suggest writing a plugin for that instead of ovewriting the core js files.

Here is my NodeBB instance: https://locationforums.com. It's still new and lacking content. I'm working on it. I'm hoping to one day plug it into the fediverse so it can work as local groups for people on other platforms. Looking forward to all the new fediverse developments on NodeBB. It's a great software.

@[email protected] it was actually because of @ in actor IDs - the codepath for choosing a webfinger lookup over just accepting the URL as the ID only checked for its presence, and the code for webfinger lookups was only meant to run for the acct: protocol. So yeah, not WP fault at all, just a combination of a bug and missing feature Now both should be fixed.

Thanks @crazycells . I I'm pretty sure it will become important to do that sooner or later. probably sooner

@julian digesting this. The potential is every bit as exciting as I thought it would be 6 months ago. I feel like my life has come full circle. I have always been a fan of forums, and always felt they were completely underdeveloped. It’s like everybody cloned the phpbb model and that was as far as it ever went. You’re reawakening a real beast potential.

@julian @JP_Bennett @FLOSS_Weekly @[email protected] @[email protected] listening too it now while updating @[email protected] @[email protected] need something to listen too while still working for another 1,5 hour

Quick update: you are now able to mention individual users in your posts, and if you are mentioned in return, you will now be notified. There was also a bug where remote user avatars were not showing up in your notification inbox. That has now been rectified. [image: 1709668985075-eef805e8-3ccf-47d6-b7b9-c7d96e5df9e6-image.png]

The second question as an update for this topic is: how do I add a trailing slash to the URI of an arbitrary topic? Raw nginx rewrite as follows doesn't do the trick rewrite ^([^.]*[^/])$ $1/ permanent; Update: I need trailing slash in order to eliminate page_with_redirect issue.

@omega yes, I totally agree It should only be at the top to show the trail of the page... And tag row needs to be for hashtags not for the sub-category name...

@omega said in NodeBB made it on to AdminZone "Best Forum Software" poll: Back in 2014... but I'm sure it can do better in 2024!
