Baris for president! 4 more years!

But in all seriousness, this actually makes the plugin viable. Can't have EVE API's public, even to other users. We're a paranoid bunch, you know

Now this:

Ability to Link Remote Pictures for User Image · Issue #1935 · NodeBB/NodeBB

Currently there is no way for one to use remote pictures for user images: when a user image is not uploaded, it defauts to gravatar. Would definitely like the ability to use remote images instead of gravatar. Could be solved by adding th...

is the only thing standing between us and a fully functioning plugin.

I remember asking @julian about this for a plugin before

@tanner #whatalliance

[Tanner]

@xCausxn Are you the N3 guy I've been hearing about?

Just published 0.0.4 to npm. It does some things I don't remember because I did it a month ago, but it also hides the API information from the user data

[Tanner]

Nice, that's pretty needed for this plugin so thanks, @Schamper!

Now all that we need to do is to have NodeBB allow remote images so that we can use the EVE API to replace Gravatar as the default user imaging source.

After that, it will be definitely ready to use!

Kings of lowsec!

Niceeee, other EVE players and a plugin!

[Silvina]

Can i Request something similar for Star Citizen ?

[luke]

@Silvina I doubt Star Citizen has an API yet.

23 seconds on Google I came across this: http://api.starcitizenworld.com/

[luke]

@a_5mith It's not an official API but if it works, it works.

@Tanner @Schamper

This plugin can be taken so much further i feel haha. i can sense @Tanner probably already knows them

[Tanner]

@Schamper the plugin seems to be broken, where the JS isn't firing to call the characters, so the character dropdown isn't populating with names and is instead blank. Looking at the plugin now, can you give me a hand and help quickfix this with me?

Edit: I'm also running on 0.4.3 and it seems that the plugin is also broken there, where the plugin doesn't load and the admin page goes to a 404.

[Schamper]

Current version is up to 0.0.8.

Changelog:

• Fixed registration
• Fixed corporation check
• Fixed a bug that might cause NodeBB to fail loading
• Compatibility with NodeBB's latest hooks
• Fixed a bug where you couldn't register if you weren't in an alliance/corporation
• Your NodeBB avatar will now reflect the avatar of the selected character

Yes, I did it. The avatar thing is real. It's a hack, I'm not especially proud of it, but most of my plugins are built upon NodeBB hacks Pretty much the reason why they break so often..

[Tanner]

Simply epic. Great work @schamper!
