Hosted NodeBBs now backed up using Tarsnap

julian Admin last edited by
Glad to report that as of today, April 25th, all instances of our Premium Hosted platform benefit from backups stored via the Tarsnap backup service.

Our previous backup solution consisted of local file system backups of each instance's database contents, persisted to the local file system. This had two shortcomings:
- Backups were not hosted off-site (a big no-no! )
- Uploaded files in /public/uploads were not backed up
I'm glad to say that both of these shortcomings have now been addressed. Luckily, we have never had to restore a NodeBB instance from back up, thanks to our reliable hosting from DigitalOcean. Hopefully, we'll never have to

Interested in having us host a NodeBB for you? Check us out at http://nodebb.org!

On iPad I can scroll freely. On desktop with Firefox and Chrome I can't: I can only go to specific "screen", not in-between them. Wheel moves with slow transition to the next screen. I can scroll the wheel super fast and it only does one scroll event at a time, so if I wanted to go quickly from top to bottom with wheel I can't do that. I have to wait for the transition. I can't middle click (wheel click) to get into free scrolling mode. There is no scrollbar, only small buttons that I'm supposed to click. Every convenient way to scroll the page has been disabled on desktop. JavaScript for the sake of JavaScript. Also, iPad seems broken when I go from vertical to horizontal: suddenly I can only scroll from first screen to the fourth one, and back again.

Hey all: so this is a slightly smarmy, self-serving request but hey, I am the marketing guy. We are working with the Capterra directory to get some NodeBB reviews posted on their site. They have a program where they will give you a $20 gift card (I think you get a choice of Amazon, Starbucks or pre-paid Visa) if you are one of the first 25 people to click an emailed link and post a review. It doesn't matter if you say nice things or if you bash us, although of course we hope you'll be nice! If you're interested and are running NodeBB yourself or using our hosting service, please DM me or email sales@nodebb.org with your name and email address. There is a time limit, I need your response before Monday August 20 at 3 pm Eastern (Toronto/New York) time. A few days after that you'll get a separate email with the details for posting the review. Thanks!
