Well, @OutlawedOffroad, that's the general idea

[StuartH]

When will the hosted instances be updated?

[dove]

Did you even know it was there?

I noticed this button immediately, but I didn't really understand what it means, I tried clicking it, but nothing changed. Now after your post, as you said we can resize I tried to move it
Wasn't very obvious at least for me

The buttons not works ... ON mobile.

You will have to clear your cache I had the same problem a few days back.

How do I upgrade to the latest version on NodeBB v0.1.1, there is no upgrade button on the control panel?

Merry Christmas from the NodeBB team!

If boxing week sales aren't enough, here's a brand new version of NodeBB for you -- production-ready as always!

In a nutshell, v0.2.0 contains many new features and bugfixes, including:

• New post composer
• Support for German, French, and Spanish
• Ability to use MongoDB instead of Redis (optional)
• NodeBB is now truly "refresh-free". Notification and Unread counters now update automatically, even if the server stops and starts in between.
• Support for Private Categories (selectable via user or group)
• Many bug fixes!

thanx..

@StuartH yeahh

@StuartH Please make a support ticket and we will upgrade it. Thanks.

I've tried git pull, says its up to date, I've even tried resetting it. Any advice on what to do while maintaining my config/posts would be great.

@theepiphany -- you forgot to run npm install

@theepiphany -- you forgot to run npm install

I did run npm install as well as npm update.

[Chris]

Managed to get it, just manually replaced the files and npm install npm update and good to go.

Thanks

[trevor]

npm install and npm update worked for me. i had the same string error Error: Cannot find module 'string' when updating.
