[nodebb-plugin-custom-homepage] Basic CMS plugin - custom homepage

My NodeBB also crashed after installing that plugin. How do you manually remove (all?) plugins so that NodeBB can restart safely?
-
@Kamal-Patel In my case the plugin only crashed the instance of NodeBB running and I could just restart it - the plugin was still disabled though, and trying to activate it just results in the same crash.
If restarting doesn't work for you, you can try running./nodebb reset plugins. That should just disable all plugins. -

Instead of disabling all plugins, might be better to remove the plugin that caused the problem.
npm remove <insert-plugin-name-here>should do it. -
A small, trivial issue, but driving me nuts....
Where oh where do i fix this title....
and, i'm a nodebb noob... somewhat....

Hey @nexed, I fixed the broken tooltip, update to 0.0.2
-
@psychobunny thanks!
-
@lin It took me a while to figure out this plugin too...
So go to Themes -> Widgets in your admin panel. You will see new template areas starting with the name "Custom HP". Drag and drop your widget elements in there to get started.
Also, this plugin creates a navigation link at the top. "Chat Bubble" icon... click that and it will bring you to your regular nodebb category listing.
-
As @nexed says, this plugin overrides your existing homepage and introduces new widget areas which you can use to populate with... you guess it, widgets!
You can combine this with the
-featured-threadsplugin, to show a specific set of topics on the home page. -

Question @psychobunny : The custom sidebar widgets only show up to logged-in users. Is there a way to make them show up to everyone? I left "hide from anonymous users" unchecked in the widgets.

- None of the topic lists have a "New Topic" button (hence the widgetized homepage also doesn't have one with the recent view list). Is it possible to add the "New Topic" button to each page (recent posts and popular posts), or manually add it to the custom home page?
Great plugin, very useful, however I get the same issue above. Is there a work around/fix for this? How to get the New Topic button's back?
To be clear, there are no New Topic buttons on any category pages. Tried playing with the AccessControl, and that did not change anything...EDIT:
Did a fresh install with 0.4.x and seems to be working ok. -
I too had to remove

I have installed Custom Home page on my forum www.techiewiz.in. As mentioned before, I am still not able to set any thread as featured. Let that rest for lat...

I installed this plugin and put the widgets in their respective places, however none of them show up. Am I missing something after installing, activating, and moving in the widgets?
I removed the class="hidden" variable and it now shows up. What are they there for??
Also, there's a bug when you load the homepage by clicking on the home link, the widgets will not show up, but will only show up when you refresh.
Edit: this bug was solved by updating to the latest version of NodeBB

Also was curious if a forum.tpl section could be added to display sidebars just on the forums and not anywhere else. The category nor the homepage .tpl's or widget sections do not show up on the forums page - only global widgets, which is not what I'm after.
