I would like to think NodeBB as just any other forum system. Where you have database , files and an environment. Given that in place, it should work

@baris said in Multiple reply buttons on newest nodebb:

The reply button under each post is used to make a direct reply to the post. The blue reply button makes a reply to the topic itself.

It is also not new.

Hello,

I am trying to setup nodebb with haproxy instead of nginx as frontend. Everything seam to be working however I am getting lots of 403 on /socket.io/ requests.
frontend http-in mode http bind 0.0.0.0:80 redirect scheme https code 301 if !{ ssl_fc } frontend https-in bind 0.0.0.0:443 ssl crt /etc/letsencrypt/live/test/test.pem http-response set-header strict-transport-security "max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains" http-response set-header Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self' wss: https: *.startech-rd.tk/*; script-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval' https://code.jquery.com; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline' https:; img-src 'self' https://casper.ghost.org/ https://www.gravatar.com/ data:; font-src 'self' https:" http-response set-header X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block" http-response set-header X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff" http-response set-header Referrer-Policy "no-referrer" reqadd X-Forwarded-Proto:\ https acl is_websocket hdr(Upgrade) -i WebSocket acl is_websocket path_sub -i /socket.io/ use_backend bk_ws if is_websocket acl acl_comments path_beg -i /comments use_backend comments if acl_comments backend comments mode http balance leastconn timeout connect 1s timeout server 600s timeout queue 600s option redispatch retries 3 acl is_woff capture.req.uri -m sub .woff acl is_ttf capture.req.uri -m sub .ttf acl is_eot capture.req.uri -m sub .eot http-response set-header Cache-Control public if is_eot or is_woff or is_ttf http-response set-header Expires -1 if is_eot or is_woff or is_ttf http-response set-header Pragma cache if is_eot or is_woff or is_ttf cookie nodebb insert indirect nocache secure server node1 10.160.125.81:4567 cookie nodebb_node1 check inter 1000 fastinter 500 rise 2 fall 1 server node2 10.160.125.82:4567 cookie nodebb_node2 check inter 1000 fastinter 500 rise 2 fall 1 backend bk_ws option redispatch balance roundrobin option forwardfor option httpclose server node1 10.160.125.81:4567 maxconn 30000 weight 10 cookie ws_node1 check server node2 10.160.125.82:4567 maxconn 30000 weight 10 cookie ws_node2 check```
I have tried to connect directly without haproxy and the websockets are connecting correctly. However I've seen that using the haproxy the websocket protocol changed from wss to https.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

@baris Ok thanks, I will take a closer look.

Could you show me a quick screenshot of what it looks like when the leaderboard succesfully loads? And where would I find the template file in the leaderboard plugin/greater nodeBB app for what should be loading the html for the leaderboard?

Thank you!

Would recommend this: https://github.com/lucadegasperi/oauth2-server-laravel

Plus:

The recommended method of sharing sessions between two separate and distinct applications is through OAuth2. We recommend this approach because NodeBB maintains its own user records, so that we can keep track of user-related metrics and other data. Relying on another database would be tricky, prone to breaking, and quite possibly dangerous.

Luckily, it's quite straightforward to get things working with OAuth2!

The first step is getting your application to expose an OAuth2 endpoint. If you're running a Node.js based app, you can use a module called OAuth2orize.

Once that is set up, you'll want to take a look at the SSO plugin skeleton for customised OAuth deployments -- nodebb-plugin-sso-oauth. You'll take this plugin, fork it, and modify it to communicate with your OAuth endpoint.

Once everything is working properly, you should be able to register and log in/out via your web app.
