You can adjust from ACP > Settings > Post ... it is "Necro Threshold" part... Set 0 to disable...

@kurulumu-net thanks for sharing... thanks for the inspiration @phenomlab

Actually, we are also planning to switch to this appearance... I have got the codes from @kurulumu-Net last week. The boxes and overall design make everything easier to read and make whole sections separate. We are currently working on the codes since our color preferences will be a little bit different. Additionally, I am planning to make more changes to dark mode. I will also share our version of the codes...

As an admin in our forum... although I can see the best posts by a user, I cannot easily reach the list of posts with negative votes. Sometimes it is necessary for me to see why a user has a negative reputation, and I usually have to ask the user itself if he/she knows which posts were disliked heavily.

This might be also an admin-level option/list to reach. I do not think any regular user will need to see this list, but as an admin, I think it will be very useful for us.

@baris please add us too

a related topic you can get some info:

@gotwf can I see your website please? just curious. I do agree with you about content quality. That is also what set us apart from others... all other related subject forums turned into "facebook groups", whereas we advanced quite well...

But I have to admit that NodeBB is an important part of the journey... (Thanks @julian and @baris )

5 years ago, before switching to NodeBB we were using VBulletin, although we had no metrics at that time, we had many comments about mobile-friendly switch... that is why we decided on NodeBB. Right after the switch, I remember that we used julian's this plugin:

https://github.com/julianlam/nodebb-plugin-clicky

it was giving all info about the users and there was one month free trial, we have seen that 30-35% of the users were mobile (do not forget that this was 5 years ago, when we have just switched) ...

But after NodeBB and 5 years later, and of course nowadays everyone has a smartphone, our users base is 65% mobile according to google analytics (last 7 days data). I have to admit, I definitely prefer the desktop version of the sites, it is way more convenient for me, but I also acknowledge that this is not correct for the majority of the people (or users).

@saturn-wind I think Pitaj's linked thread answers your question in detail.

But if I understood your question correctly, in summary, we forked persona theme in our own Github page and then made the changes (make sure you change name, description, preview etc. to distinguish it from the original theme), then directly installed it to our forum using git clone ...

Afterward, on your ACP, you click Appearance > Themes ... you should see your theme there, then select your custom theme and rebuild the forum.

I think as an alternative you can publish your theme in npm and then use npm or plugin search to install it.

@jminer @phenomlab this is fixed and the fix will be available in the next update (1.19.4)

@julian said in email address requirement during registration:

@crazycells functionality wise the form is made required though, yes? Just the labeling is wrong?

Sounds like a bug, file on GitHub please

Yes, functionality-wise it is required... you get an error message if you do not provide an email address:

@pitaj thanks, this will definitely work better than directly asking the users... However, I still believe a direct link on the user's profile page will benefit admins.

this is also a problem that @cagatay has encountered with v2 upgrade...

Before 2.0.X, there was already a problem with the plugin list, I guess it might be related:

@crazycells said in 2.0 Compatible Plugins:

nodebb-plugin-embed

Does anyone know if nodebb-plugin-embed works with NodeBB 2.1.0 ? All I get is a blank page. I'm using 3.0.19

Thanks

Unfortunately, we do not know yet we are still behind at 1.19.X... when our developer team has time, we will start testing...

But, the embed plugin page looks weird... It is not updated recently, but it also shows 3.0.18 as the latest version.

@volanar said in Tags not showing in mobile view:

@crazycells thanks .
Can you tell me how to override CSS styles so that tags have rounded edges?

try this:

.tag-item {
    border-top-left-radius: 4px;
    border-bottom-left-radius: 4px;
    border-top-right-radius: 4px;
    border-bottom-right-radius: 4px;
}

@volanar try this custom CSS

.title .tag-list {
  display: inline-block !important;
}

@volanar said in Tags not showing in mobile view:

Hello. I noticed that the tags are not showing up in the mobile view. Can you tell me how to enable this feature?

do you have a custom class for tags in ACP > Settings > Navigation?

maybe that is preventing them to be seen?

@psytonik said in after upgrading from 1.9.x to 2.1.x get error:

Hello guys, i did upgrade from v1 to v2 and get lot of errors after i start the forum, in admin panel not work half of functionality, no possible replay or make post in forum. for example also can't rebuild forum from admin panel button
how possible to fix this ?

I think incompatible plugins are the problem in your case.

Disable all the plugins from command line and enable the ones in this list:
https://community.nodebb.org/post/88408

Then, check others one by one to find out the problematic plugin.

hi @baris , can you please post the current plugin list whenever you have time?

I would like to double-check the versions of the plugin that is compatible with NodeBB 2.1.X Thanks.

@sharonyue said in Solr searching engine is bad:

I have been using Solr for 6 years. I have to say the results it provides are terrible. Of course this is not a problem of nodebb. I would say its a problem of Solr. Our website uses Chinese, so right now Solr is our only solution. However, it is terrible.

Some users just dont use it at all, they search something by Google like:

keyword  site:mywebsite.com

The results are very good. Much better than Solr.

I am wondering if there is a change to have a better solution...

unfortunately, it is the same for us... since there are unconventional characters in Turkish, we are also having problems with the search function.

I wrote it before, you can read it here:
https://community.nodebb.org/post/75862

well, the search function does its job, but if you do not remember the exact word and how it was written, usually you cannot get the results you want. I also get more relevant results through google search most of the time

we are trying to solve this problem with keywords, hashtags, and tags... I usually write several related keywords at the end of a long, informative post like this:

so, people can still find these posts. We are also re-structuring our tags/hashtags system to help people find what there are looking for, but it is a work in progress... however, I have to admit it is getting harder since the content is growing...

by the way, this is the hashtag plugin we use :
https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-hashtags
(but I believe it is not perfect yet)

I am also interested in hearing how others solve these search function problems...

@LEVI-HAVIV you can restart the server first and re-start the forum again?

sometimes this happens to us as well, forum crashes by itself and restarts automatically but not everything loads perfectly, usually restarting everything solves the problem for us.

Additionally, there might be a plugin update you have done and not compatible with your NodeBB version? you can disable them and restart again?

@josef said in How to know who deleted the post?:

@crazycells Thanks! I did not know it
But it seems to me that it should be simpler ... no? Maybe within the editorial history of the post or something similar

hmm... I believe deleting and restoring do not count as editing of a post, so these actions will not change the edit history.
