Thanks @Schamper that fixed it, but now

user Gravatars are too big in the shoutbox http://tilg.in/2410_05_12.png

on page refresh, scrollbar goes to top (not the latest post) http://tilg.in/2410_25_11.png

Schamper

@chas Clear cache.

chas

@Schamper Cheers, fixed it

When people post images in the shoutbox, it scrolls to the bottom before the images have been loaded, so when they have the shoutbox is scrolled somewhere halfway.
Or has this been fixed in master already?

Schamper

@Xiph No, and I currently don't have a fix for this.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/280049/javascript-callback-for-knowing-when-an-image-is-loaded could be of some use to you.

The .complete callback looks like what I'd try for your situation.

Schamper

@Shaun checking if every shout contains an image isn't really the optimal solution though $:\$ does look like it's the only solution for now.

Shaun

@Schamper It's definitely going to add some client-side load. I think you might be able to put the check on each image and then put it on a toggled timer to re-fire the scroll, so you don't end up re-scrolling the shoutbox 20 times. I can't really think of another way to accomplish it.

Schamper

@Shaun What about stuff like Youtube embeds though, same problem.

Shaun

I think you could do something similar with those, but I'm not sure it would be something with full browser support (like putting an onload in the embed elements).

Hey @Schamper , is there a (pre)release planned for NodeBB 0.6.0?
I'm missing it since I can't go back to 0.5.x.

Schamper

@tedr56 I'll try to get some work done next week. It'll only be 0.6.0 compatibility so no new features.

Ted

Glad to hear that.

Could you post an annoucement when you plublish? Thanks.

LtRice

Any update for Lavender? Whenever I try to add it to my global header it just makes all of my plugins not work.
Actually scratch that, it's not working on any themes I'm using

Mandosis

@LtRice What version of NodeBB are you running?

LtRice

@Mandosis 0.6.0 Tried on a new install and still no luck. Using OVH as my host running a VPS with Ubuntu 14.04.

Also when going to Installed Plguins > Shoutbox I get this page.

0.2.2 released with 0.6.x compatibility!

This also comes with a pretty large refactor of the server code. Client side is still the same but will also be pretty much remade soon.

There's a small database change necessary for this version, so be sure to backup your database before updating!

If you run into any issues, let me know!

Pinging @LtRice @tedr56

Thanks @Schamper

Here are some bugs
disabling Gist and Bugs doesn't work (the animation shows its disabled) but when you go back on the page it is enabled, even after hitting "save". Also not sure if Show navigation link works, unticked or ticked, any navigation link is clickable? xD

update
looks like anonymous users see no chat content and all forums disappear and recieve "invalid data" error, even if its not hidden within the widget settings -> http://tilg.in/3001_29_72.png

I've temporarily fixed this by disabling shoutbox 0.2.2 and restarting my nodebb and anonymous users see forums again.

Running latest master.
