      @exodo @torn2 v1.x.x branch is now updated with working composer. Pull again and run upgrade.

      Hey I'm having the same problem. I'm up to date on branch v1.x.x but no luck on the error.

      Also composer is on 4.2.13 for my site.

    • RE: [nodebb-widget-discord] Discord Server Widget

      @HolyPhoenix thanks! I'll try it when I get home from work. I was on that page in the ACP before but wasn't really sure what I was doing. I thought I had added it correctly but didn't notice any changes after saving. I will try this!

      Is there a guide somewhere to adding HTML/JS widgets to NodeBB?

      @charles said:

      @Dielan the web installer add info to the config.json so you can modify it to match your db and user

      I think i'm confused. This is what config.JSON looks like now:

      root@xxx:/NodeBB/nodebb# cat config.json

      {
          "url": "http://xxx:4567",
          "secret": xxx,
          "database": "mongo",
          "port": 4567,
          "mongo": {
              "host": "127.0.0.1",
              "port": "27017",
              "username": "mongodb",
              "database": "0"
           }
      }
      

      Obviously I x'd out some things in there for privacy. What do I need to add exactly?

      @charles said:

      @Dielan try this https://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/enable-authentication/

      Before I do that, where do I configure the db user and password for NodeBB? do I add it to config.json ? I remember it was an option in the GUI when I ran npm to install the forum in the first place, but I don't know where to change it now.

    • Stupid MongoDB Question

      Hey all,

      For the life of me I can't find any MongoDB documentation about the database password. All of my searches pull up dozens of articles on resetting user passwords for various popular implementations of MongoDB. I want to beef up security (if this even does that) and clear this warning I get when I start nodebb:

      21/3 20:39 [9041] - info: Initializing NodeBB v1.0.2
      21/3 20:39 [9041] - warn: You have no mongo password setup!

      Is there a simple, DB noob friendly way to put a password on this thing without breaking my forum?

      Thanks in advance..

      We found it and everyone is jumping all over it 🙂

      Screenshots?

      Are we talking about group chat in the forum interface or some kind of mailer?

      @bentael I'm still interested in this. How would you prefer the db dump be sent to you?

      Hello NodeBB community!

      I am currently on a team that manages a web forum for a gaming community that's currently running Xenforo. We have been looking for alternatives to our forum and I was wondering if any of you have experiences you would like to share when it comes to migrating an existing Xenforo to NodeBB? Strongly considering trying out NodeBB!

      Thank you in advance!

      I am curious as to why you want to stop using xenforo for a gaming forum?

      Well xenforo is still a good choice for a gaming community but we are still pretty new. One of our larger concerns is xenforos cost, and the costs of removing unwanted features such as branding. Its really just a ratio of what we need vs how much xf expects us to pay for it that we are currently unhappy with.

      I'm also a huge fan of open source software
