I want to use NodeBB user sessions on another site

    Another site is custom made, hosted on the same host but different subdomain. Are there any plugins that could help me using user sessions from NodeBB on another site?

    Looking for solutions for this problem I tried nodebb-plugin-session-sharing plugin, which is supposed to generate JWT token if I understand correctly, I didn't manage yet to generate it although I think I correctly configured it.

    Anyways, what I see in the cookie storage is cookie named express.sid which itself seems that it's not JWT cookie, but of some other kind, what I would want to know is it possible to decode that cookie on different subdoman of the same site, what I have is (where NodeBB is installed) and app.domain.com which is running Node.js application.

    I need a simplest solution I can get, I don't want to mess with SSO systems like FusionAuth of Keycloak, I want to use NodeBB's user registration system.

    Try the Ubuntu docs instead of the Debian docs. They're more up to date.

    Problem solved. For this topic to be any usefull at all:

    Run into first problem trying to point and click install 2 nodebb instances( test and the actual) on the same server and obviously, both couldn't listen on the same 4567 port.

    Second, did the second install from the old docs on readthedocs instead of the official ones from nodebb.

    Third, forgot to also add php-fpm directives to my Nginx config. And start Mongodb.

    @zipang yes of course we'll support Node 8 but to do so we have to drop support for all Node versions prior to v6. You can understand why we'd be hesitant to do so so quickly after our last major version release.

    Merging nodebb forums

    Hi,

    I would like to know if there is a recommended way to merge two nodebb forums ?

    I converted some threads using the mybb import plugin but the original db was so big I ran into issues (plugin crashing) and couldn't convert the whole forum. I limited my import to the most popular threads, keeping only posts less than 1y old and it worked. But it was so time consuming that I decided to upgrade nodebb instance and made it available to users. Since the import plugin requires nodebb v1.0.0 my idea would be to create a new nodebb instance with its own mongodb and import the remaining threads/posts, then upgrade it to the same level as our "production" one and try to merge the imported threads to the "live" nodebb.

    Has any nodebb merge been done before ? Suggestions ?

    Thanks
    Thomas
