I have 2 projects one WordPress and the other nodebb are currently stored on different servers, I want both to be on the same domain example.com example.com/forum Is this possible? This is very important to me because of Google promotion, thanks!

yes, you can install NodeBB as subfolder... we use .com/forum as our forum location, and .com is our WP site...

How do you install nodebb in a subfolder? (I realized it is not possible in ftp)

I am not the back-end person but I know we created a "forum" sub-folder first and installed the NodeBB there, and then did the nginx settings according to NodeBB documentation. I believe nginx setting is the key here...

Please check this documentation out:

@exobucks Best bet is to integrate the js code in your plugin itself, so all admins have to do is enable your plugin and that's that.

In your plugin you can execute your code in a client-side js file, and read the value of a configured ID from the plugin settings (if needed). You can see how this is done by inspecting how the Google Analytics plugin handles it:

What's the best strategy to integrate nodeBB with another account system?

@Samson-Liu to expand on @PitaJ's reply:

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.
