How can I replace the icon by an image?

awesome would be pretty cool to see a lot of gaming related forums powered by NodeBB, all thanks to you

This is exactly what brought me to NodeBB. I am working on a project to create a new gaming site because I became completely disenfranchised with most forum based game sites out there. I find the technologies too static for today's web.

I have been doing great deal of research to find out more about nodebb and all the dependencies and I am somewhat confident of creating a platform to bring forum interaction to modern standard.

Has anyone got this working on 0.43? Running into the 404 issue when attempting to go to admin/steam

julian

This plugin might need to be upgraded to work with 0.4.x...

shinyidol

@julian What does that mean? This is something I'm REALLY looking at and almost a make or break feature.

@shinyidol just meas the plugin dev needs to change something in the plugin for it to work with the latest version of nodebb, raise an issue over on github to update it.

shinyidol

@a_5mith Thanks

Jurjee

Any updates on this? I really want to use NodeDB but this makes it pretty much useless for me. :l

julian

@Jurjee Hey, I have time to kill, I'll take a look.

Edit: Ready.

Jurjee

Wow, that was fast! Thank you very much!

shinyidol

@julian tried updating to this and causing my nodebb instance to stop. ideas?

a_5mith

@shinyidol the pull request Julian submitted hasn't been committed yet, so it's technically not fixed yet. You've got two options, you can either wait until the plugin developer accepts the changes, or you can fork the plugin and make the changes manually to your forked version. I'm not sure if there's an unwritten rule when it comes to taking over inactive plugins. As the old plugin would still exist.

shinyidol

@a_5mith yeah. i did a fork and manually updated and it didn't work

Jurjee

I haven't tried it myself but will check it out later today to see if it does work for me.

julian

Only the first one (#6) is required, #7 is just a renaming of the module for cosmetic purposes.

You can try to install my fork by running the following:

$ npm install git+https://github.com/julianlam/nodebb-plugin-openid-steam.git

If at a late date you want to uninstall it: npm unl nodebb-plugin-openid-steam, or just remove it from the ACP.

shinyidol

@julian appreciate the help, but not working. Running 0.43. Removed all previous versions. Then ran the npm command above. Clicking on Steam still takes to 404 error.

julian

@shinyidol Just want to confirm it is installed: npm ls nodebb-plugin-openid-steam?

shinyidol

@julian i think so.

root@blog:~/nodebb# npm ls nodebb-plugin-openid-steam
[email protected] /root/nodebb

@shinyidol Ugh, sorry about that, silly mistake. Please re-install.

When you re-install and run npm ls on that package again, the git hash should be: ca32b1a6e87b0682572c2cbf4400a17e42e1f4a4

shinyidol

@julian Well that got the 404 resolved. i was able to add my steam key and save it. but no additional login option becomes available.
