NodeBB Plugin-Mentions out of date?

Technical Support
  • I tried updating the nodebb-plugin-mention to v1.0.0. However upon upgrading my entire site crashed.

    The logs said this

    [outdated] nodebb-plugin-mentions v1.0.0, requires ^0.11.7
    

    Is there a way to update my requirements for these plugins? I have a couple other plugins that I haven't been able to upgrade as well

  • Same thing happened to my site. The requirement is ^0.11.7, which means it wants a version that is equal to or greater than 0.11.7 but less than 1.0.0

    So it considers 1.0.0 too new.

    Either there is a change in 1.0.0 that breaks your version of NodeBB, or they forgot to change the version dependency.

    Just installing the older version should work until they fix it.

    Yep. It's 1.0.0 because it contains a breaking change that v0.7.2 cannot handle. I know the upgrade button is awfully enticing, but hold off until v0.7.3 is released 😄

    Yes I do also realise that we shouldn't show the upgrade button if the compatibility check fails...

  • Thanks @julian and @yariplus I will hold off from clicking that upgrade button for now. 🙂
