NodeBB on top coder

[Scuzz]

@sky

I had a similar issue when i installed it on windows. All i did was copy the files from the actual path into the one NodeBB wants. Had no problems since then but it might be worth raising an issue on Github.

I had to create

\static\plugins\nodebb-plugin-mentions\     

and copy everything from

nodebb\node_modules\nodebb-plugin-mentions\static\    

into there. I can get the exact files for you when I get home, if you want?

@Scuzz

Yes, I did that and it worked. Anyway someone should fixed it

[Schamper]

Weird... I'm on Windows and I'm not getting that.

Anyway someone should fixed it

(chuckle)

That style of script injection doesn't seem ideal anyhow -- may refactor it so that they can be defined straight in plugin.json

@Mr_Waffle I think this was in a fresh install with a

npm install

It happened when i deleted nodebb and re-installed it.

How to create custom icon in alternative login?

Currently there is something like this in css files

content: "\f082";
}```
Could someone explain how it works or provide some link?

Another question.

in plugin I have settings something like meta.config['social:auth0:app_id']
How to output settings to js in client side? I solved this by making custom route, which returns JSON with settings, in client side I make Ajax call. Settings are static and how to do it without ajax?

• This adds the button in the /login page
• This adds the menu item in the ACP
• This adds the actual route for the ACP

@julian I did my own oauth plugin, I have button, menu, route etc, but I would like to have some different icon in alternative login list
For example how to define my own css class .fa-topcoder-square:before { content: "\f082"; } What is that \f082 here? How can I define new values?

Also my second question is not answered. Facebook, google oauth don't pass appId or other settings to client .js directly, but my plugin must do it. Is there some proper way to do that?

.fa- is a font-awesome class all available ones are here: http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons/

@xCausxn ok, thanks. I see it's not possible to create custom icon, right?

[xCausxn]

You could make a custom icon just by making a new class in the css file something like
.icon-topcoder {
background-image: url("http://cdn5.iconfinder.com/data/icons/Symbolicons_Transportation/24/Car.png");
background-position: center center;
width: whatever maybe 16px or 32px
height: same as what you put above
}

Or you could make a custom font file
