NodeBB Plugin & Theme Contest Bonanza 2014
-
Awesome!
Is the plugin category the best place to see the list of existing plugins? It is a bit hard to find what is already implemented and what plugins are in demand.
Are there any other place I should look at to get a good sense of the current plugin scene?I am very excited. Will start hacking on my first plugin this weekend
-
There is a plugin request thread as well as this
Plugin contest Requests
May be we should use this thread to help ourselves make use of this plugin contest as well as let the developers know what we would be interested to have as ...
NodeBB Community (community.nodebb.org)
If you want to take a good look at available plugins, install NodeBB and check the plugin list through ACP.
-
@arasbm For published plugins the npmjs.org search would be best.
But most published plugins also have a topic within the plugin category.
If you're interested in what's on demand you most likely find it in the plugin category if the author wants you to know -
There's also this which is the API powering the plugin list in the ACP. It still has a lot of work to go, we put it on the back burner atm to focus on more important things. Eventually it will be located at
http://plugins.nodebb.org
and will be linked to this community for comments ala blog comment plugin. -
I just wanted to add that if you win the premium hosting packages, we will be more than happy to export data back to you to host on your own server after the year is up. Just let us know

@psychobunny I've updated Chinese version. https://nodebb.org.cn/topic/60/
-
Hmm hopefully I can get a decent plugin together by the end of the month. Some NBB gear would be neat to have. Shame I already released a "plugin" (to call it that is being generous), I'd prefer the odds of being in the newbie category
-
How can we participate ?
Lets try mine own plugin 0.0.1 release: https://github.com/svandecappelle/nodebb-plugin-charts
-
@svandecappelle, I think plugins only qualify if they are released for the first time this month.
So, other than myself, is anyone working on a last-minute submission?
-
@Ted yeah I am almost done with my first plugin, going to submit it later tonight or tomorrow. There is still a whole day and some left in October
-
Going to drop my submissions here, makes it easier for you guys I guess.
nodebb-plugin-reddit
nodebb-plugin-botler (kind of submission I suppose ;)) -
@Ted The first release was created on Oct 19, 2014
-
My submission is the Tron theme, which is semi-quasi-almost-pretty-much-finished as it stands now.
[nodebb-theme-tron] Tron Theme for NodeBB
I'll take a look into a few of your todos now bud, the sidebar doesn't work on an iPad for example. Looks good though, may fork this to work on a template I'...

Polling begins shortly! (~24 hours)
Edit: Considering adding @Almost from BitBangers for http://bitbangers.co.uk/topic/132/nodebb-plugin-anchors
Edit:
nodebb-plugin-Charts (@svandecappelle) had a number of upgrades made to it the month of October, but it was technically started in May True to his word, the plugin was not released until October 19th, so it gets a bit grey there
nodebb-plugin-Teamspeak (@pitaj) was removed as it was started in late September, but was included initially as @pitaj is considered a new dev. We'll let the public decide (same with the teamspeak-widget plugin)
nodebb-plugin-codepen (@a_5mith) is still included as the npm registry lists its publish date as:
"0.1.0": "2014-10-02T18:49:29.226Z
, so again, grey, like the charts plugin
