Problems with nodebb-plugin-blog-comments

psychobunny

I might just go and update that guide at some point We just finished updating almost all of our plugins to 0.4x, and I don't see ourselves having to do that again (because there was a pretty massive overhaul in the codebase en route). So you should be relatively safe with Edge right now (or just wait for 0.4x to be released... very soon)

Sigh, no joy. I'm not getting the Blog Comments section in the ACP.

Not sure if this is related but I'm getting a message in the Dashboard "A new version (v0.4.0) has been released. Consider upgrading your NodeBB." But after doing a ./nodebb/upgrade, I'm still on v 0.3.2.

psychobunny

You would have to git pull to the latest before upgrading. If you're on the 0.3x branch you'll also have to switch to 0.4x or master first

edit: actually hold the boat, think I found an issue with my latest update of blog comments

jdp23

OK, the boat is held -- thanks for letting me know!

psychobunny

Okay, I found the issue causing it to not show up on the previous version. Update to blog comments 0.0.21, and you'd need to be fairly latest on NodeBB as well (or just switch over to 0.4x/master and pull latest)

The Blog Comments Plugin on Launch Day

psychobunny

rofl! yeah that would be twice that my plugin's been screwed on launch

jdp23

Major progress! I'm now able to configure the Blog Comments plugin, and I see the "Publish" button on my blog. Yay! But, when I click on it I get a 404. Looking at the http log on the server side, it seems to be in response to POST /comments/publish ...

jdp23

Aha, but if I add

app.post('/comments/publish', Comments.publishArticle);

to Comments.init, it works! Reply is still getting a 404, probably the same deal ...

Still, I would say the boat is now floating!

psychobunny

Ah, please update to 0.0.22

Edit: Looks like you figured out the problem yourself

Edit2: Sorry for making you my guinea pig, I was waiting for us to publish the 0.4x release blog post before actually testing my changes

jdp23

Yepper, 0.22 solves it. Thanks!

And no worries, I really appreciate you taking the time to look at it while you're in the midst of launching! Plus I get to feel good about my node sk1!!z

psychobunny

haha yup. Next time I'm just going to let you handle it yourself
