Woooow - that's a neat plugin. Why 42, btw?

bentael

Yeah, I figured that was why...

How about nodebb-plugin-that-does-all-the-stuff-the-nodebb-devs-were-too-lazy-to-do?

bentael

@julian hahahaha
to be fair, I'm greedy.

Note to self drink first coffee of the day before posting on forums, and read all posts before replying.

@bentael I have 42 installed but after I save some code the box goes blank and no changes are taking affect I copied and pasted, and typed in manually I am assuming the code stays in the input area for future editing.

It doesn't support NodeBB edge yet, are u on 0.2.1?
Regardless I'm planning a rewrite this weekend. I will support the latest. And fix that stuff.

bentael

@StuartH
I re-wrote most of this nodebb-plugin-42 today, I also added append to <head> config but keep in mind that this append occurs on document.ready, and made it compatible with NodeBB latest master.

give it a shot, let me know if it still sucks.

Yea thanks Bentael I will give it a try?

StuartH

It briefly worked but now the "42" has disappeared from the side bar so I can not use it, did do a empty cache and restart but it wont come back

bentael

@StuartH lol that's weird, are on NodeBB edge?

julian

@bentael he is, yep.

bentael

I can't reproduce the problem. any error logs? on both server and client sides?

do you have a demo public link I can use to login and check?

are you on Mongo or Redis, (not that it should make a difference, but just the new code used another way to save configs)

StuartH

Well this is strange I just went back on to the admin page and there it is "42" is back are you guys messing with my head that or I need a lie down in a dark corner

finid

@StuartH

Knowing that the devs are a nice bunch, finding the nearest dark corner might not be such a bad idea. Just stay away from a connected device while you are there

StuartH

It gets better @planner I thought I would test it out by copy/past some html from my MOTD to the footer, nothing happened so did the same for some text again nothing so I deleted the code went back on to the front end and there it is (doh)

StuartH

Now I do not know how to get rid of the text as it's not need there, think I will leave it a while then through salt over shoulder and look again to see what i get this time
