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

psychobunny

When I enter "/", custom homepage appeared , then "/forum/, it work ok, then to topics list page, then click browser's "back" button , it can't back to "/forum".

I don't know how to make it ok, need help

Don't think I follow 100%, are you building your own plugin and using this one as a base?

Makes for a bit of a jolt in the flow in the forums, is this a possible fix?

Yeah I think I fixed it a while ago tbh, but it might have broken again after some changes in core. I'll have a look: https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-custom-homepage/issues/5

Yes, I'm building my own plugin, but I only adopt the idea of the route rules. I had try to just install the custom homepage plugin to see if it is ok, but seems also the problem. I did need a hompage before enter forum home. Some good idea please?

Looking at this and wondering about the photo in the first post. What is the sample blog post? Is that just another forum post but styled differently or something else altogether. If it works like wordpress, one less software to install and make it 100% nodebb. Anyone with experience care to give examples of how this works?

@peter pretty confident they just hand coded that to look like a blog entry.

Also @ the downvotes at the start of this topic. Maybe it didn't work for someone.

Not sure why that person downvoted all the posts, anyways I increased the minimum reputation required to downvote posts from 0 to 10.

I really love this plugin! But to be honest, I was fooled by the screenshot in the OP.
It would be great if we could pull topics from a specified forum category as blog posts and see topic posts as blog comments.

AFAIK this is broken on 0.5.3, any chance that it could get some love?

Or let me know if it's supposed to be working and that I'm just doing something wrong here.

a_5mith

@Tanner Yeah, looks it, still links to api/home in the plugin, and /forum.

Can you help me ?
My nodebb version 0.5.7

@nette18 did you see the source code in 'src/plugins.js' at v0.5.7

		Plugins.fireHook('static:app.load', router, middleware, controllers, function() {
			hotswap.replace('plugins', router);
			winston.info('[plugins] All plugins reloaded and rerouted');
			callback();
		});

In this version: there used old way to call the plugins hook.

SO, please check your plugins version. The 'HEAD' one is support the V0.6.x version. It does not work for V0.5.7

Did this plugin for your error.
you can remove the old one, and install this.

npm

(www.npmjs.com)

when you need upgrade your nodded to v0.6.x :
you can remove it and reinstall nodebb-plugin-custom-homepage

.eg
But the same error needs change core of nodebb in 'src/router/index.js'

Seems like a plugin request. Plugins should ideally do one central task. Unless someone fancied making the equivalent of the one SMF uses. Can't remember the name of it.
