Thanks Pita. I will try other options.

@cool glad you discovered the issue. Sorry I couldn't be of more help, I got very busy.

Duke ... Thank you. This command solved the problem: ./nodebb reset -p nodebb-plugin-map

Yes, I believe you either need to do this, or alter the jstree.js file itself to change references to jQuery to just use global (as in, don't require jQuery at all)

Cool answer.. It worked. Thanks.

I am done with this. If somebody needs help for this topic, he/she may send a notification to me.

nodebb-plugin-write-api is one

Finally it worked. Thank you very much. Just two points: a. Ajaxing ends up with this URL: http://localhost:4567/map?_=1514797485831&loggedin=true I mean the internal details are visible to the user. An ideal solution is to reset the URL to something like this: localhost:4567/map b. Suppose I cold load with an invalid URL: http://localhost:4567/map?loggedin=FALSE it still renders the map page. Ideally, it should display the "Page Not found message" Any solution to these two? Or, shall I consider them as "OK let it behave so!"?

Thanks Pita

I am writing a plugin. Can anybody pl. write the code pattern for this requirement of mine... When a logged in user enters some data, the backend should do the following in response: The user sends the data to the NodeBB backend in the following format: { key1: data-value1, key2: data-value2, ... } Get the user id of the user and check if the key1, key2, etc. already exists in the Mongo DB (the user's collection/document) If yes, overwrite the data If not, store the data Tell the client that the action has been taken Actually, it is quite simple if you're writing an app from the scratch. What I am looking for is the pattern/way the NodeBB is currently handling this scenario and I want to code using the same pattern. Thanks

To further clarify, the order of sequence of execution of scripts should be ... maps.googleapis.com jquery.js my-custom-script.js

Thank you for putting me on track once again. Where shall I write this polyfill code ... in my map.js?

@rahmon IMPORT is actually a NodeBB directive, benchpress doesn't handle imports.

Looks like this problem is because of an error in my CSS file. So I have it to fix it myself.

I am right because I manually copied the images directory under the build/public directory and the icon image was there on the map. But how to tell the build process about the same? Pl. guide. If there is no proper answer to this problem, we should avoid minifying the leaflet's stylesheet. And it should be kept separate. In this scenario, how shall the plugin.json look like?

I am able to solve this issue. I needed to add checks in map.tpl instead of relying upon pure client-side JS solution.

I am able to solve the first issue. I needed to add checks in map.tpl instead of relying upon pure client-side JS solution.

I want to store the data in NodeBB's Mongo db. It will be retrieved later and displayed on a map..

oh.. Right

Creating a soft link to the images directory works.
