Hello, I have the lastest ghost installed as a blogging engine and I have installed the latest stable version of nodebb and installed this plugin and integrated in into the ghost. It works as a champ however the styles are not OK. Is there a way to style the plugin? Basically it does stretch on the full width of the window and it does not keep the ghost post width.

Hello, I have added this plugin to my freshly installed nodebb and also added the widget to ghost. I was able to enable comments successfully a couple of blog comments but then I suddenly got this error:

{"error":"Unable to post topic"}

in the nodebb log I see the following:

25/11 04:25 [11857] - warn: [nodebb-plugin-blog-comments] Origin (undefined) does not match hostUrls: http://example.com

Anyone can help me with this?
By the way the two posts which I was able to enable are having the comment engine working all this time.

Hi, We have a site in php and have many pages that do not use any CMS.

To comment on this site, JavaScript code Disqus system is placed at the end of each page.

Now we want a forum with "nodebb" be added to the site (as a sub-domain), which is our forum and cover site commenting systems, so we can eliminate Disqus!

I'm wondering if we can add nodeBB to php site, something like disqus.

Best regards,

julian

Yes, you can do this with the blog-comments plugin. Instructions are in that plugin's readme.

@julian thanks, in plugin's readme file, just tell about wordpress and ghost cms, we don't use any cms.

Are you talking about the same plugin? The psychobunny plugin?
Or is there another generic comments plugin elsewhere?
Because this one is for Wordpress and Ghost ..
Or, do you mean that the instructions for Ghost will work for everything?

julian

@sanatisharif @Jacob-Moen The plugin did support generic websites before, although perhaps I am mistaken.

Please wait for @psychobunny to return and answer

I'm also interested in a more generic integration with our sites for commenting-part.

Guess I could use the rest-plugin but that only takes me half of the way (publishing).

@hek @Jacob-Moen @julian please look at this :
https://github.com/psychobunny/nodebb-plugin-blog-comments/pull/36

With a little copy and paste the code Mr. Sohrab, this feature was added to the plugin.

The plugin, by sending a xhs request received information from Wordpress or ghost as json file, now we have our information directly from the server initialization.

A couple of things I don't get.

Will the post/tags/etc be updated in NodeBB every time someone views the commenting sections on the external site?
Who will be the author of the post in NodeBB?

sanatisharif

@hek we can test it, in some minute i will add this plugin to our site, then post a comment and will see what happen!

sanatisharif

@hek author of topic is admin!

Hello,

As I posted almost a month a go I have a blog running on ghost and I am trying to use this plugin as a commenting engine on it. I can enable the plugin on few of the posts but not all of them. When is not working I am getting on the browser side the following:

0_1450297996766_Screen Shot 2015-12-16 at 22.32.53.png

and on the logs I can see the following message:

16/12 15:28 [1593] - warn: [nodebb-plugin-blog-comments] Origin (undefined) does not match hostUrls: http://z0z0.me

Is there anything I can do to get this work?

Regards and thanks in advance.
Peter

@Peter-Zoltan-Keresztes yes you should set resp.http.Access-Control-Allow-Origin = "http://z0z0.me"; in your web server ( Nginx or ht-access of Apache ) or vcl_backed of varnish

sanatisharif

set resp.http.Access-Control-Allow-Origin = "http://z0z0.me";
That is syntax in varnish vcl for others google how set Access Control Allow Origin

nginx does not seam to like it.

@Peter-Zoltan-Keresztes in Nginx you should use different syntax for setting allow origin.

Peter-Zoltan Keresztes

My nginx config looks like this:

 server {
     listen       80;
     server_name  z0z0.me;

     #charset koi8-r;
     access_log  /var/log/nginx/z0z0/access.log  main;
     error_log  /var/log/nginx/z0z0/error_log;
 
     location / {
         add_header 'Acces-Control-Allow-Origin' '*';
         proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
         proxy_set_header HOST $http_host;
         proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;

         proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:2369;
         proxy_redirect off;
     }

     location /comments {
         proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
         proxy_set_header HOST $http_host;
         proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;

         proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4567;
         proxy_redirect off;
    }
 }

I am still getting the same error message.

change this

 add_header 'Acces-Control-Allow-Origin' '*';

to

add_header 'Acces-Control-Allow-Origin' 'http://z0z0.me';
