Moved things by my managements request to be externally managed users only. But there are a large number of postings for a few local users that would like to be moved. I tried doing some database edits with mongodb, but was not successful in changing the UID of a posting. Anyone have a method for this? Thank you from a Nodebb nuwbie.

Hi, I am a relatively new web developer, and wanted to know whether this was a good enough approach to my problem. I have nodebb forums running on a subdomain, and want some of the details of the logged in user to be available to my main domain. I do not want a full fledged sso system or something like that, as I want minimum hassle. I was thinking of the following method, and wanted whether this is feasible from a technical and security point of view. I was thinking of setting '.example.com' for my express cookie session so it is available on my main domain. From there, I can use this cookie to make a cURL request to a custom api endpoint on my forums, which basically returns the users details if the cookie can be authenticated. I hope someone can help me, as I am unsure from a security point of view whether it is feasible. Thanks

@thanhtantran you might just want to copy the mongo database directly. Using nodebb-backup is probably missing some of the newer db keys. Look at the docs for backup in the upgrades to get an idea as to how to do the mongodump
