You can list active plugins with
./nodebb pluginsAnd it does have a help screen
./nodebb --helpDo you have ajaxify disabled? There's no way to do that currently with ajaxify enabled, due to the ad script calling document.write()
What exactly is not possible @yariplus? Realoding ads? If you mean that, I have to dissapoint you. They work just fine
Here a little how to for DFP users:
Open up
public/src/ajaxify.js
and go to line 161 (
function renderTemplate(url, tpl_url, data, callback) {
).
Below
app.refreshTitle(data.title);
add
googletag.pubads().refresh();
.
This will work just fine and complies with Google ToS.
I apologise I am not very familiar with DFP.
The problem you describe here: synchronous rendering results in the DOM structure to break, causing the forum to disappear and just the ads to show up. It is basically like the page would only load the ads, but has no content.
is the result of a script calling document.write()
after a page has loaded.
Since ajaxify asynchronously loads the widget data, I assume something in the widget script must be calling document.write()
.
Don't know if the problem is the same, but a few years ago I did a custom ad network (because I didn't like DFP) to serve custom banners and Adsense ads. And I had a problem with document.write()
too.
The problem was solved overriding the document.write
function. Kinda tricky, but worked: before loading the adsense ad, the document.write
function is replaced with a custom function that inserts the content into an element, instead of writing it to the dom directly. After inserting the content, the original document.write
function is restored.
That is, a one time function replacement.
Here is some code:
var originalFunction = document.write;
overrideDocumentWriteFunction = function(container) {
document.write = function(content) {
container.innerHTML = content;
document.write = originalFunction;
};
};
And I used it like this:
var div = document.getElementById('adPlacement');
overrideDocumentWriteFunction(div);
var script = document.createElement('script');
script.type = 'text/javascript';
script.innerHTML = '{adsense script content}'
document.body.appendChild(script);
This way the document.write
function was customized to ensure the Adsense script worked after the page was loaded.
I haven't tried DFP on NodeBB but maybe this helps.
@AOKP so is your only problem with sync rendering?
