[nodebb-plugin-blog-comments] Blog Commenting Engine (Ghost, Wordpress widget)

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.

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

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?

@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!

@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.

@Peter-Zoltan-Keresztes said:

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

change this

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

to

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

Peter-Zoltan Keresztes

@sanatisharif I did that. the Access-Control has to be on the location / which is the blog or /comments which is the nodebb?

sanatisharif

@sanatisharif because developer of plugin set a filed true to use cookie of forum for user authentication so you can't set * as Allow grigin.

sanatisharif

@Peter-Zoltan-Keresztes blog because blog send a request to forum!

Peter-Zoltan Keresztes

I did the change to:

    location / {
        add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' "http://z0z0.me";

        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;
    }

But still not able to get it working.
