@Dehbuff If you have access to the shell, you can install NodeBB (as long as the dependent software is installed: MongoDB, Node.js)
On which folder should I install plug ins ?
-
Currently the terminal in Ubuntu shows : root@techiewiz:~#
all my npm installs including search, smilies were not visible in the plugin listing in Admin CP. Can anyone guide me with commands to go to proper path and install these plugins + kitchen sink & youtube embed ?
-
cd path/to/nodebb/folderthen do the npm install command in there. (assuming you followed the install instructions and have npm installed) -
How can I find the the path to corresponding folder ? Normally, under which name/path does it appear ?
-
Which guide did you follow to install? In the root folder you're currently in, type
ls, do you seenodebbormynodebbsomething like that? -

ls
I see this
root@techiewiz:~# ls
dotdeb.gpg nginx_signing.key node_modules tmp webmin_1.680_all.deb -
@a_5mith Are you on Ubuntu ? Shall I give you remote access ? Will be nice if you can help.

@julian Help please.
-
@a_5mith I could get kitchen-sink installed and activated from plug in. But the editor remains the same. Any idea why ?
-
Do you remember on what folder you installed nodebb? The folder were you install nodebb is the folder were you will install the plugins and every other stuff.
-
npm install nodebb-plugin-dbsearch
After running above command, the site is not loading at all. I used home/nodebb/nodebb . Kitchen sink got installed and I activated it from ACP. Nothing happened though. Then I tried above command now I cannot access neither front end nor ACP.

What happens when you do
cd home/nodebb/nodebb? -

My board is back online. Thanks a lot @kimikelku and others who helped.

./nodebb startAlternatively, you may use npm start and npm stop to do the same.

I am still at bay on installing the search add on. It is in my plugin list. But afraid whether it will kill my forum again. Any suggestions are always welcome.
