    Chat and follow options are not working in my nodebb forum. First, I thought its a problem with websocket as i got some errors when connecting to ws. But i fixed it. But i still nothing happens when i click chat or follow option even though there are no errors in the console. Can it be a issue with the theme i am using? I am using lavender theme.

    Thanks for reading 😃 . The app is hosted in openshift with mongodb as database.

    Ok. Looks like it was because of a incompatible plugin. The plugin in my case was nodebb-plugin-reddcoin . Its fixed now. Though i can't use the reddcoin plugin. Was a nice plugin 👍

    For my original problem, I think I found a bug.
    For some reason the user password length was set to 0 (I didn't set it that way, it's not possible). When I set up my forum, my password was 7 characters long (before launching the site, I change the password to a complex and unique one, but during the development process I use a simple one that I remember). When I transferred the forum to the server and edited Users -> Settings, I set the minimum password to 8 characters, because it was impossible to leave the field with a default value of 0. And here I see a bug, because no one expects this behavior. Once the minimum password is set, NodeBB simply stops accepting any passwords that are shorter. This is completely non-obvious and as an admin I fell into a trap. I would expect two behaviors:

    Continue to accept set passwords even of shorter length until a password change is required Display a warning and reset passwords of shorter length if the administrator confirms this action.

    Short of using OAuth2, you could write your own app component to tie NodeBB into MySQL. One of the issues is that MySQL is a generic database so the format of your authentication easily won't match in some obvious way, so needs a customer connectors no matter what. Just adding another DB source for authentication would not solve your problem. It would have to be something that connects to your database and has the ability to understand your schema and has the ability to store all necessary additional schema changes there.

    It seems to be working fine now and the domain had changed, however now if I access the forum via the old url (http://maguss.nodebb.com) there is that message about trying to reconnect.
