Use grunt: https://docs.nodebb.org/configuring/running/#grunt-development

It will automatically rebuild what is necessary and restart when you make a change.

oof... maybe, but not yet, I don't think.

We can use LESS insomuch that what is entered is parsed back out into CSS, but because we don't rerun "variables.less" from bootstrap, then you can't really use variables.

I'd recommend opening up an issue in our bug tracker so we can get this in if it's something you want

I will answer myself on question.

You need to remove these documents (_key pattern) from objects collection:
message:8 messages:uid:8:to:16 uid:1:chats
* where numbers are identifiers

Or if you don't want to do it manually, you could wait for future NodeBB Utils plugin:

Will there be a new theme for version .5?

Just curious (from an excitement for the next version standpoint). The current themes are already leaps and bounds better than other forum scripts.

@jiangcaiyang you can report an issue to request/discuss that option on the github repo. I'm pretty sure @administrators woul not mind to modify the behaviour if it doesn't break anything.

Edit: update with the github issue for easier tracking in the forum.
