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

[Peter-Zoltan Keresztes]

Does this plugin works with the latest version of nodebb? After I have upgraded the nodebb to 1.1.0 I can no longer see the comments on my blog. However they are still there in the nodebb.

[psychobunny]

Yes, it's working on this site: https://blog.nodebb.org/nodebb-v1-1-0-release/

AFAIK no hooks or anything related to publishing and commenting have changed since the last minor version

[Peter-Zoltan Keresztes]

@psychobunny Interesting. Any idea why suddenly after updating the nodebb all the comments from my ghost ware gone? I mean on the Ghost site cause I can still see them in the nodebb.

Any suggestion on how to debug it to eventually make it show up on the ghost posts?

[Peter-Zoltan Keresztes]

Can I have any help on making this working again? I have done everything what it is in the documentation and it's not working since I have upgraded to v1.1.0 and I had to add proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme; to the nginx. `

Any errors in the browser console?

Here is my posts.hbs related to this plugin on the ghost side:

74             <a id="nodebb/comments"></a>
75             <script type="text/javascript">
76             var nbb = {};
77             nbb.url = 'z0z0.me/comments'; // EDIT THIS
78 
79             (function() {
80             nbb.articleID = '{{../post.id}}'; nbb.title = '{{../post.title}}';
81             nbb.tags = [{{#../post.tags}}"{{name}}",{{/../post.tags}}];
82             nbb.script = document.createElement('script'); nbb.script.type = 'text/javascript'; nbb.script.async = true;
83             nbb.script.src = nbb.url + '/plugins/nodebb-plugin-blog-comments/lib/ghost.js';
84             (document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0] || document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]).appendChild(nbb.script);
85             })();
86             </script>
87             <script id="nbb-markdown" type="text/markdown">{{{../post.markdown}}}</script>
88             <noscript>Please enable JavaScript to view comments</noscript>

and here is the nginx config related to this:

location ^~ /comments  {
	proxy_set_header X-Real_IP $remote_addr;
	proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
	proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
	proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
	proxy_set_header X-Nginx_Proxy true;
	proxy_pass http://comments_upstream;
	proxy_redirect off;
	proxy_http_version 1.1;
	proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
	proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
}

[psychobunny]

This line

nbb.url = 'z0z0.me/comments';

Make it

nbb.url = '//z0z0.me/comments';

I have no idea how this would have worked for you prior to the upgrade, unless you modified this line while trying to debug your code. This ought to fix it though.

Actually this line was

nbb.url = 'https://z0z0.me/comments';

[psychobunny]

Yeah, that should work too. Any luck?

[Peter-Zoltan Keresztes]

Did the change but no luck at all.

Here the comments should show up.

[psychobunny]

Aha. Change

<a id="nodebb/comments"></a>

to

<a id="nodebb-comments"></a>

Bingo, that was it. Thanks a lot for your help

[psychobunny]

Apologies, I meant: https://github.com/psychobunny/nodebb-plugin-blog-comments/pull/48/files

And, it seems like in ghost.js that's the only thing you need to change anyways, so that's OK.

also I have put into the partials/loop.hbs

     <span id="nodebb-comments-count"></span> Comments

to show the number of comments in each posts but this is all I can see:

Necroing - @psychobunny you going to ever update this to newest version of ghost / nodebb?

[psychobunny]

hey @Joykiller I'm quite certain this works with the latest version of NodeBB as we are using this currently on our forum: https://blog.nodebb.org/v1-5-0-a-long-awaited-release/

May not be up to date with the latest version of Ghost though, so that might be the issue here. It's come up pretty recently that we should consider upgrading our blog to latest, and when that happens I'll certainly make sure that the plugin works with it

[Jay Shaffstall]

I have a possibly unusual use case that shows I probably don't understand how NodeBB integration is working with this plugin. I'm on Wordpress.

Here's what I thought happened: the plugin uses the Wordpress article id to use to create a new NodeBB topic with that same id when the Publish button is pressed. Afterward, since the topic already exists, you see the posts and comment form instead of the Publish button.

My use case is that the topic already exists (it was created in NodeBB) and I'm trying to tie a Wordpress post to it. I'm using the general approach and setting nodebb.articleID to the NodeBB topic id.

What I expected was to see the comment box and current posts in that topic. What I'm seeing instead is the Publish button.

Am I misunderstanding how things should be working?
