I know this has been requested many times, but this is my personal single most-wanted feature in NodeBB. 1-to-1 chatting is great but group chatting would be killer functionality.

Happy birthday @psychobunny!

@psychobunny I think I got it?

@prog It's available as a plugin. Check out nodebb-plugin-recent-cards.

@Kowlin just a side note, I always make sure I require email verification which seems to stop spoof email addresses at the point of registration.

@a_5mith

someone did once complain that NodeBB wasn't written in php

Even platforms such as WordPress are looking towards JavaScript going forward. See talk on JSON REST API. JS is the way forward! NodeBB is leading the way

These look awesome! I did something like that for BuddyPress (remove the need for Gravatar) by drawing GitHub-style "identicons" (see here) for users without a profile photo. My project used the GD PHP library so it won't be useful here but it's great to see you're going to be removing (many) calls to the (external) Gravatar service.

@julian @psychobunny has a point about Liverpool. They tend to cause their fans pain and suffering quite a lot

Currently watching categories is opt-out. On forums having lots of new topics, this results in a huge number of items in example.com/unread. I think the unread page would be far more useful if watching categories was opt-in. That way /unread would contain only the items a user is interested in from the start and they won't have to go ignore a bunch of categories in order for /unread to become useful.

I'm wondering what plugins are used here? Is a list available?

The image is definitely squashed when you look here:

I'm using Chrome to view the site.

Here's the original

@julian posting this from my tablet so don't have the original to hand. Can get a copy if need be?

Perhaps your logic is sound and @psychobunny's CSS is off? He is a Spurs fan after all

Hey guys

I just uploaded a new profile photo and it seems slightly squashed?

HNY everyone! Here's to a fantastic 2016!

Merry Christmas all!

@julian have you guys thought about doing something like nodechat.org? This feature is so killer, you could easily make a successful sister project

@baris you rockstar! This is such a killer feature!
