@pitaj Having a branch for the production version with a similar dump output is actually a great idea. You can solve the conflicts during git merge (or PRs if there would be a tea working on this) and there should be no problem.

thanks @yariplus . how to customize node bb source code totally?
-
@pawan-patil Can you explain what you mean by totally?
-
@pawan-patil You are able to modify the source code and use it on your own site. You are only limited if you are intending to redistribute the code. If you intend to, then you must also open-source your changed code.
If in doubt, you'll want to contact a lawyer to review the GPLv3 license that comes with NodeBB.
