I think if cutting these features allows for a refocus onto embedding GIFs without it being so difficult, improving the settings feature to allow for more authorization customization, and making the upvote feature easier, etc. then yes it's a great idea. Nodebb is a very modern forum but the chat and other features definitely feels like scope-creep.

nodebb-plugin-imagemagick installed an enabled, but GIFs still don't workHi,
I'm trying to enable animated GIFs on my NodeBB. I installed and enabled the Image Magick extension: https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-imagemagick
Then Rebuilt&Restarted
It says:
"Why replace?
NodeBB uses a js-only alternative, which may be slower, or less featureful. Additionally, animated gifs are supported with ImageMagick, while they are not supported in the bundled version.Requirements
NodeBB v1.0.0 or a suitably recent version
Setup
None, just install and activate."But I'm unable to upload GIFs still.

Is there a way to change the Digest text from "Daily" to "Weekly"?The email that is sent out says "Welcome to your Daily Digest". But we sent it out weekly. Is there a way to change this to say "Welcome to your Weekly Digest" ?
I looked in the email template but I could't find the text. Maybe I'm blind. Could someone point me in the right direction please? -

Exporting user list of a group, or adding fields to user list exportHello,
I'd like to export a list of the users and their emails from a specific group. Is there a way to do this? And if not, is there a way to export all users, but add more fields to the list besides username and email address?
Thank you

Restrict User Search Access to Specific GroupHi,
We've set up a Category for a specific group of people that aren't related to the rest of the users using our forum. We'd like for them to see/search for users only in their Category's group. Is there a way to allow for a user in a group to only be able to search for people within their own group?

Upload file using Redactor?I found it but the upload file dialogue box is confusing. It says the file name is optional, but if I don't enter a name then it appears in the post as blank.

Upload file using Redactor?Does Redactor allow for file uploading? There's a button for it, but when I tried to upload a file the upload box disappears and the file does not appear.

Is NodeBB compliant with the GDPR (the newest legislative spam by the EU)?My understanding is that it depends on whether you think someone in your community will spend the time to enforce this if you are outside of the EU. That being said, any firm or service that interacts with an EU citizen is supposed to be compliant with GDPR. There are a lot of good data analytics websites that have articles on what one needs to do. If you're compliant with Canada's PIPEDA or whatever the US has then its not that big of a leap to be compliant with GDPR though. Some tech firms are building in easier ways to control and modify data though.
I assume with NodeBB it would be a simple matter of deleting the user when requested, but there's probably a rule around making a comment on a forum and that now being in the public sphere, which doesn't mean the nodeBB hoster having to delete all the posts related to it. If that is under GDPR then someone should contest that if they're ever challenged on it.

Widgets: How to place a login form on the homepage (or anywhere else)Hi,
Just FYI this code doesn't work in NodeBB hosted. If I use this widget, when I try to login it returns a white page that says "Forbidden".
Also, when this widget is in place and I try to use the proper login form (top right hand corner), then when logging in using that form returns a white page that shows "/".
However if I reload the home page then I actually log in.When I removed the widget the normal login page worked.
From an ease of use perspective it seems like it would make sense to have this as a separate pre-built widget.

Require login on the total website?@kev-m I figured this out. I was looking at the Global permissions and not the category specific permissions. To change the category there is a dropdown menu on the upper right hand side of the Manage>Privileges page. Then I select the category and remove the guest permissions.
-
Require login on the total website?@kowlin Hi is this still accurate? There seems to only be three permission categories for Guest Users, all of which I have unchecked, but they can still see the forum categories. The Categories section of the Admin settings doesn't display anything related to Access Control or a Permissions Tab. I'm am using the NodeBB hosted version of NodeBB.
