    also in nodebb-plugin-sso-oauth there is a comment that says nodebb requires email for creating a user, but I have been able to create one with an empty string for email.
    does something goes wrong later if some users don't have an email?

    Is it possible to have admin or mods approval for user created groups?

    Please try now.

    I'm not sure if this is exactly what OP needs though. It adds a permission for a user to create a group and assign it to a category. Not exactly the same thing as approval.

    Is it possible to add extended fields to the post composer without replacing the composer?

    Is there any built in extensibility to the NodeBB composer that would allow you to submit additional data along with a submitted topic or post?

    So for example, say you want the users to submit some data to describe their post in a way that is useful for your system, is there a built in extension point that would allow you to add a field (text, select, whatever) to the composer and have that data stored alongside the post?

    I was able to achieve something like this by hacking the extended data by using tags that are automatically created when the user fills in my custom fields. It works for this scenario, but it would be great if there was a better way to do this.

    In addition to being able to add custom data to posts, it would be great if you could specify that the custom extended fields only apply to some categories in your system.

    nodebb-plugin-sso-oauth: Which User Fields Can Be Filled From OAuth Resource?

    I am new to NodeBB and nodebb-plugin-sso-oauth authenticates users from oauth2-server-php with an Active Directory (Samba 4) backend. "So far so good" - this plug in obviously works in that configuration, but I was not able to include more than id, displayName and email from OAuth into user NodeBB account. My OAuth solution offers a big JSON object with many data which are usable for NodeBB.

    My library.js was patched to

    OAuth.parseUserReturn = function(data, callback) { // Alter this section to include whatever data is necessary // NodeBB *requires* the following: id, displayName, emails. // Everything else is optional. // Find out what is available by uncommenting this line: console.log(data); var profile = {}; profile.id = data.id; profile.displayName = data.display_name; profile.fullname = data.user_nicename; profile.emails = data.emails; console.log(profile); // Do you want to automatically make somebody an admin? This line might help you do that... // profile.isAdmin = data.isAdmin ? true : false; // Delete or comment out the next TWO (2) lines when you are ready to proceed //process.stdout.write('===\nAt this point, you\'ll need to customise the above section to id, displayName, and emails into the "profile" object.\n==='); //return callback(new Error('Congrats! So far so good -- please see server log for details')); callback(null, profile); }

    this console log show all data as expected, so oauth module got everything, but profile.fullname is ignored by NodBB. It seems it is not enough to patch that section to get more than minimum required data for a NodeBB user.

    Any hints?
