[solved] Can't save settings

[Giorgio Chiodi]

I'm running a new install of NODEBB 0.4.3

Also the upload buttons don't work.

And I can't edit category titles! What's going on?

Are you getting any errors in your console when you attempt to save? Also, if you click on the title / description it should pop open an input box.

I wonder if you're running the latest version of the theme, but an older version of NodeBB. Are you on latest core too?

@psychobunny

I followed this tutorial, and just installed on a cloud and a local server - same issue.
Nothing in the console, and no popups, no.
The theme is vanilla.
It's the latest core, yes.
Clean install.

what do you get when you run git rev-parse HEAD?

I don't know if it's related, by also can't seem to see the changes I've made to the templates anymore.
I'm using a copy of the vanilla theme and modifing it - I don't know if it's canon.

If you select the original vanilla theme, does the above problem get fixed?

[Giorgio Chiodi]

@psychobunny nope

[Giorgio Chiodi]

@psychobunny But do you confirm that there actually isn't any problem with duplicating the vanilla theme and editing that?

[psychobunny]

I could see it being a problem if you duplicated an outdated version of the theme, and then forgot to update your package.json name field. The duplicated theme is completely up to date?

[Giorgio Chiodi]

Where can I check that?

[psychobunny]

In node_modules/your-theme-name/package.json

Make sure the theme's name matches the directory that you have it in. If it's set to nodebb-theme-vanilla, I could see there being a problem

Still can't do anything. I have the same problem on this install http://54.187.193.155:4567/
Everything is default, all plugins are disabled (reset).
I forwarded the admin account codes to @julian

@Giorgio-Chiodi I also gave @julian access to my board. Let's hope he'll find a solution quickly

[julian]

@Marco Please try and disable all plugins -- does this still happen?

./nodebb reset plugins

[Giorgio Chiodi]

@julian They're already disabled.

[Giorgio Chiodi]

@julian

Jesus christ it just started working again on our local install. Just made another stop / restart.
It is still stuck on our other install, at http://54.187.193.155:4567/
I won't restart the engine, so you guys can take a look at it.

[Marco]

@julian I already tried that. No changes. I disabled them on my installation for you to further investigate.

@Giorgio-Chiodi That's interesting. I stopped/started my nodebb countless times.

[julian]

If your NodeBB is already running (via ./nodebb start), ./nodebb reset plugins won't magically disable plugins on an already running install, you do need to ./nodebb restart to see the effect
