Well i am having issues with moving mine, and it seems Mongo is the issue, any help would be great https://community.nodebb.org/topic/6620/unable-to-migrate-nodebb-to-another-server/1

When trying to boot NodeBB on new server i get

at Function.MongoError.create (/home/***/nodebb/node_modules/mongodb/node_modules/mongodb-core/lib/error.js:31:11)

Any tips on best practices for migrating servers?

Yes replacing is an option, but did you know that when you replace it the avatar the actual file it self doesn't, the previous image stays in the image folder.

Thanks @julianlam

So, can someone enligten me on how this is done, because I am at a complete loss.

Thanks.

BUMP!.. I really want this addressed or pointed in the right direction to fix this myself!

@julian WTF!!! even better!! ahaha!! this gets better everytime!.... my only gripe is that persona stinks on Windows Phones...--> new thread coming on.

nice one!! never knew about stash!! but i love the simplicity so much! thanks!

Hi I want to be able to make custom changes to the ACP dashboard the some language changes as well, but I want them to stay after a git pull and upgrade is done.

Should I do this via a plugin or is there another way... oh and Im not sure on forking as it seems a bit much just for a couple of cosmetic changes.

Thanks.

Can confirm this is the case for my self also, Unable to update persona theme.

Hhhmm interesting... many thanks, guess i better start learning how to do plugins!
