How can I get the user's locale. If possible, can I get it on the client side? If not, what is the user field?

@pitaj on the client side, there is a global variable config, there are some useful things there
config.userLang is what you asked for.

As for server-side, you'll want language, I believe, from inside the user set. This is what we use:

user.settings.language || meta.config.defaultLang || 'en_GB'

NPM page shows me that the latest version is 0.4.0, but on ACP plugins page and even with npm install the latest version is 0.3.4.

I have noticed since some time ago that there is always a delayed version with this plugin.
How to fix this?

I may have found it. node_modules/nodebb-plugin-google-analytics/lib/client.js looks promising. But ohhzzmyyygeez wtf. I don't know how all of that constructs the js call for GA.

@julian Thanks this did the trick!

I used it like this in my client side code:
<input id="csrfToken" type="hidden" name="_csrf" value="" /> ... $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) { require(['csrf'], function(csrf) { var csrfToken = csrf.get(); console.log('obtained csrfToken: ' + csrfToken); $('#csrfToken').val(csrfToken); }); });
@yariplus I'm not really sure about your specific question. I have a feeling that the csrf tokens are generated based on a csrfSecret that is stored in the user's session. You could check that the session has this loaded on the server side with this:
var util = require('util'); console.log('user session' + util.inspect(req));
For me, this results in:

user session: { cookie:
{ path: '/',
_expires: Sun Nov 22 2015 09:52:23 GMT-0800 (PST),
originalMaxAge: 1209599988,
httpOnly: true },
csrfSecret: '70lFS_InV_56D1gvV9TDKgJX',
flash: {},
passport: { user: 1 } }

meta.config contains settings from NodeBB itself. Plugins retrieve their own settings via the settings module on the client side.
