Just merged the group-chat branch into master, it will be available in our next release which will most likely be 1.0.0.

There are some breaking changes and schema changes in this merge.

The upgrade script will go through all the chat messages and assign them to rooms. This might take a while depending on how many chats messages there are in the system. The upgrade script should show the progress in the console.

For all the changes check out this PR https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/pull/3968/files

NodeBB Plugin Browsing Users

This plugin shows who is currently viewing a topic. This was a core feature that we removed a while ago, now it is back as a plugin

Installation

npm install nodebb-plugin-browsing-users

More info at https://github.com/barisusakli/nodebb-plugin-browsing-users

Notes
Currently only persona supports this, if you want to add it to your custom theme make these changes.

I have run some tests to check the memory usage.

The redis INFO command was reporting 811kb at the beginning since I was running the tests on db1. An empty NodeBB installation starts with roughly 405kb of memory usage.

start 811.44 kb

**Users **
100 users 1.04M diff (254kb) per user = 2.54kb
1000 users 3.61M diff( 2,885kb) per user = 2.885kb
10000 users 29.88M diff( 29,786kb) per user = 2.97kb

Posts (500 chars each)
336 posts 30.71M diff(849kb) per post = 2.52kb
996 posts 32.70M diff(2,887kb) per post = 2.89kb
9995 posts 54.39M diff (25,098kb) per post = 2.51kb

The memory usage per user is roughly 3kbs at 10,000 users. This value goes up as we have other structures that grow as the user count grows.

The memory usage per post is about 2.5kbs per post, keep in mind the posts I created are all 500 characters long.

So for 2,000,000 posts and 400,000 users :

2,000,000 x 2.5kb + 400,000 x 3kb = 5.9gb

So theoretically 6gb should be enough.

Hope that helps.

We recently added a new system group called Global Moderators, this group has access to the moderator tools but can't access the ACP. They can also ban users. We will let this group see banned users and flagged posts as well.

We have assigned some users as global mods on this forum as well https://community.nodebb.org/groups/global-moderators.

If you think we missed someone or you want to be a global mod ask for it here.

Your best posts

This is just a simple theme based on persona that modifies the topic view with a sidebar.

Here is a screenshot when you are at the top of a topic.

Imgur

And here is one when scrolled down.

Imgur

The sidebar is a bootstrap affix so it is always visible when you scroll down, useful when using infinite scroll as well.

The sidebar also reduces the width of the posts so I find it easier to read compared to long horizontal lines.

Reply, sort by and watch are always visible previously they would go out of screen.

There is a lot more room for browsing user images.

You can install it with npm i nodebb-theme-peace

This plugin adds a new route to your NodeBB at /feed.

This route shows a feed of posts from users that you follow. The page has 4 widget areas to further customize it. You can also filter by a user or category.

I installed the plugin on this forum to showcase it https://community.nodebb.org/feed

https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-feed

Thanks to @Ben-Lubar we now have replies to posts. https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/pull/5050

Right now it only displays one level of replies but you can modify your theme and remove this conditional https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-theme-persona/blob/master/templates/partials/topic/post.tpl#L87-Lundefined then you will get nested replies as well.

You can update to master or wait for 1.3.0 to get the feature. It looks like this.

As usual please report any bugs you find on our tracker at github.

@Sebastián-Cisneros Yeah I think that label should say off if the user set it to off in their settings. I will open an issue for that.

https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/10631

barisusakli created this issue in NodeBB/NodeBB

open acp>manage>digest shows system default even if user sets their digest to off #10631

So I tested with the above config, I have two users admin (uid1) emailtest(uid 2).

// uid2 digest set to "weekly"
// "resend button"
sending to  [ '2' ]
// "weekly button"
sending to  [ '1', '2' ]

After changing emailtest digest setting to off

uid2 digest set to "off"
// "resend button"
sending to  [ '2' ] 
// "weekly button"
sending to  [ '1' ] // it didn't send to uid 2 since setting is off

Try with 2, the button next to the user (1) always sends the digest because of the above code.

As far as I know clicking 1 will always send a digest to that user because it uses the uid of the user directly. https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/blob/master/src/socket.io/admin/digest.js#L19

Clicking 2 should respect the settings of the users. Which one did you use for the testing?

@Sebastián-Cisneros The code you pasted isn't used to determine who to send the digest emails to, it is only used to show the setting of the user in the acp page at https://community.nodebb.org/admin/manage/digest.

If they set their setting to off then Digest.getSubscribers will not consider that user for the digest.

That doesn't sound right, if the user sets their digest setting to off and saves their user settings then on this line dailyDigestFreq will be off meanwhile interval will be one of day/week/biweek/month so it won't send an email to that uid.

That function doesn't seem to be used to determine the uids to send the digest. The function for that is Digest.getSubscribers.

Digest.getUsersInterval seems to be used on the ACP page to display the users digest setting.

Uninstalling scoped packages from ACP is broken https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/10582.

You can uninstall from the CLI with npm uninstall @nodebb/nodebb-plugin-reactions
