@psychobunny I filed some bugs and included a PR for one of the bugs.

Does the plugin not show the comments from the nodebb post?

Okay, the solution to this is that the comment in the Wordpress php that the categoryID is options is not correct. You need the category ID.

But there are still some subdir issues happening for me.

I'm also seeing this in the logs:

It's odd that Origin is undefined, right?

Also, here's the forum data being posted, it's not JSON and it's missing a bunch of stuff.

markdown=&title=&cid=&tags=&id=2930&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.axisandallies.org%2Fp%2Fvictory-new-wwii-game-columbia-games%2F&_csrf=l3iXstpC-aU9hckFGosqYZl2yAcIZ_ozQR98

Oddly I get the same error with and without the JSON API wordpress plugin activated. (It is currently activated)

I installed the plugin, setup comments.php on Wordpress and I see the following on Wordpress:

"Commenting has been disabled" with the "Publish this article to NodeBB"

However, when I push the button, I get this error:

Internal Error.
Oops! Looks like something went wrong!

/forums/comments/publish

Unexpected end of JSON input

Could this be a problem with my forum being installed in a subdir?

cc: @psychobunny @baris

I have a mount. I mount the DO volume to the default location from their configuration instructions: /mnt/<volume-name>/ and then I nest the files dir under there.

Then I symlink public/uploads/files to the files dir I set up on the mount.

Problem seems to be that git treats symlinks as files so it thinks files/.gitignore is missing.

I'm on DigitalOcean and I use an attached volume to store uploads. I've been using a symlink but it creates a bit of an issue:

$ git status
On branch v1.11.x
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/v1.11.x'.

Changes not staged for commit:
  (use "git add/rm <file>..." to update what will be committed)
  (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)

        deleted:    public/uploads/files/.gitignore

The problem is that when I upgrade it clobbers the files symlink. Does this NodeBB instance use an attached volume? If yes, do you symlink to it?

Thanks.

@baris Awesome!

I found the answer to this. It's in the settings:
