I'd like to add www.schoenen-dunk.de
That's a German basketball community which is running for almost 18 years by now. We thought about moving form our own software to NodeBB for quite a few years and were more or less forced to do so end of last year.

RE: recent, top, popular & unread do not respect read rights
@baris said in recent, top, popular & unread do not respect read rights:
Please provide reproduction steps. For example on this forum the
Testing Ground
category is not visible to guests. https://community.nodebb.org/category/4/testing-ground. So if you browse this forum as a guest it doesn't show up on /recent and it won't be visible in the category dropdown on that page either.Your quick reply (and example) made it easier for us to identify it as a layer 8 problem. Our subcategories did not have the expected rights. Sorry for raising this as a bug!

Saving of Badge Information not Possible
I already reported this on github - this is just for the information of other users:
There seems to be a bug in saving group information. I noticed it, when trying to display some badges for certain groups. I faced the situation on- NodeBB version: 1.16.1
Steps to reproduce are:
- Admin->Manage->Groups ->click'Show Badge' - Saving information 'Success Changes saved!' is displayed - Leave Page ->'You have unsaved changes. Are you sure you wish to navigate away?' is displayed - Re-check resent changes: Changes not saved for checkboxes: 'Show Badge', 'Private', 'Disable join requests', 'Disallow users from leaving the group', 'Hidden'

RE: Saving of Badge Information not Possible
Sorry, I simply forgot to post here (and furthermore did not send this post for another couple of days): I was aware that this issue was fixed, since my issue on github was closed as duplicate

RE: Chats, mechanism, protocol, scope.
Once you raised your questions, @Paul-Chambers, my seems to fit even better as I believed.
I am facing the following problem. Since our forum is sport related there tends to be lot of communication during game time (aka: Ooh what a monster block). We would like to move those shouts into a chat. Other as shoutbox or global chat everybody should be able to sign in or out to that chat by his own.
So my question seems to come down to:- is there the possibility to sign into (and out of) a chat room
I am not absolutely sure, but I believe I saw the possibility to create a chatroom using the API in one of the above mentioned plugins.

RE: Chats, mechanism, protocol, scope.
@paul-chambers
would you mind me adding another question regarding the chat API? It has different scope, but might suite here as well -
RE: nodebb-plugin-db-explorer
It finally showed up - but that definitely took a quite a while. Maybe I was fooled by cached content?

RE: nodebb-plugin-db-explorer
sure, I did. And resolved the dependencies as well

GDPR - change consent
I searched quite a while for GDPR consent and did (not suprisingly) found this thread:
Re: Is NodeBB compliant with the GDPR (the newest legislative spam by the EU)?
As far as I understood most of the discussion is made there. Furthermore I understood that the GDPR plugin was made for migrating old forums to the new consent mostly required by EU regulations in May 2018. So my problem in 2021 is:
I would like to ask all our users to consent once again AND to change the sources they are consenting to. I thought the gdpr plugin might be helpful - but as far as I understand I am not capable to unset the consent state with it. So basically my questions are two:
- how do I unset the consent state of (all) users?
- are they forced to consent for the next login?

RE: nodebb-plugin-db-explorer
nice idea but did not work for me
Installed the plugin, it does show up in the installed plugin list. Once I click the button 'Settings' the spinner starts and does not stop. No additional information in the logfile unfortunately

RE: Log rotation for custom/devel log
You definitely misunderstood me. The information you provided was well known to me
But probably my question was just not clear enough - it's me to blame
At
admin->advanced->logger it is possible to configure a custom/devel log (works like charm). I'd like to rotate this logfile using the software (and not logrotate.d) since the rotation of the 'main' logfile is already done within the software I thought of adopting the method in loader.js, Therefore I was looking for the place in the code, where the devel.log is defined/created. -
Log rotation for custom/devel log
I would like to adopt the logrotation out of
loader.js
for the devel log but have trouble to loacate the file, where it is created.
