I am not developer, but from my 8 years experience using all kind of php scripts i can say it sux. Dont get me wrong, there is lot of good stuff written in php for sure.

When i found out recently new technology nodejs, js, WRTC , i knew that is i looking for all this years. Fast, realtime, easy to understand, easy to upgrade.

Using php scripts, it was pain in ass, cause it was written bad and required lot of server resurces. Right now paying 600$/month for 2 dedicated servers just cause i stuck with some old php code on some high traffic sites. Not to mention that i was so limited with features i want.

I see no reason why nodebb should be in php. When i found it i realaized that is it. I gonna use it now for my social community project i have for years. Not ShareTronix, not shitty buggy PhPfox wich costed me 1000$ where i was limited with so many basic things. I should pay 200$ only to have simple chat which will have limit for 200 users.

Simple, I just love this technology .

@gaasg This will be good thing. On this way users can be guided trough some kind of funnel and in that way it can be reduced number of spam by alot.

For example to have introduce topic where u people will introduce and be manually or automaticaly approvde.

You are reading my mind bro :). I was thinking about this too.

I was just thinking about that, and found this post. Yes, it should be optional at least or as plugin.

Hehe, I belive but like i said in previous post their rates are high for me ^^. I am not company or firm, just solo guy trying to make something for users.

@planner Guys this is a really must feature for beginners and nobos like me and other who dont know nothing about CMD commands. You should put it there as a basic thing in admin.

@a_5mith "we charge $95 USD per hour" that is a quote from Julian, so freelancer i look cant cost that bro. With due respect for everyone works on nodebb and their own values, but for me that is sick price. I dont know how much u guys earning but 95$/h lets say u work 8h per day its its 760$ daily/22k a month. I think google emplyers and in some really really big companies have that salary.

In my city people are willing to do hard work for 100e per month, which is little more then 100$.

My budget for start is 400$ to integrate other .js library from github as plugin to nodebb. I am willing to work on long term for this cause i know exactly what i want, just need someone to do it.

Posting in "Plugin suggestion" is good , but for this i need someone to do it asap. I might post other suggestion there.

Hope you understand my PoV.

Anyway, I think i already have deal with one guy from here.

This can help a lot, cause captcha is not kind of protection at all, cause there is alot of captha solver services.

Nice site, tnx for share.

Hi there,

Over my last few years I started few adult social communities using different php -.- scripts. I am the guy, who always want to go further and improve user and site experience. Was using ShareTronix and phpFox for two of my sites. On both I missed some really cool (for me basic) features, like real time chat and video chat without consuming to much server resources and many other things.

When I recently discovered nodejs and WRTC web apps and technology, I instantly knew it that is what I was looking for all this years as a webmaster. I am not developer, but I enjoy internet technology and all the time googling and reading about new stuff.

That's how I found Nodebb. I searched term "Nodejs forum" in google and found you guys. When I saw that have nice chat + many other plugins, i fall in love with it. I noticed over the years, that forums is nothing else then social community sites, but very first version. All features are there like on any other social site (fb, twt, tumblr ...), just displayed in different manner.

So, I need someone who played with nodebb, to do some custom changes for my needs. It doesn't need to be pro, I would like to work with beginners also who will like to learn, earn and have fun. I am solo guy trying to build cool stuff and realize my ideas. I have ideas for plugins, using the power of open source and github codes/scripts.

If anyone would like to work, hit me up on skype:ksifoking or here.

Peace,

Looks super. Just joined under you. Will this be able to put in our own nodebb dashboard ?

@a_5mith tnx for replay smith. What we need is to have option for users to upload big images like 5mb, but we wanna display it in category listing as a smaller image, not whole 3000px image. So is there anyway we can get two images when users uploading it ? One with original size, and another which will be resized and showed under listing as many posts on same page.

And yes, it's being uploaded and hosted on our server.

@Tanner I mean by changing default icons and do little bit of styling text position, color etc. Just to not be default nodebb.

Nice work, its kind of new view of nodebb. Still, do some changes on icons, styling text when the flip is done.

This is amazing @Tanner

I'm loving the work you and @trevor and other theme designers are doing. Much better than reskins of the same base theme.

if u are willing to help little bit more and replay on some threads where u are mentioned , you would see completely new level of nodebb and not just color changes. Don't wanna sound rough, just sharing my thoughts.

@a_5mith said:

@kinderjaje Solr needs to be installed seperately, so wouldn't work very well with those on a low VPS

I see. In my case, it would work ^^

I like the suggestion and in my opinion should be done with Solr, cause i think it will give most relevant result.

This can help a lot, cause captcha is not kind of protection at all, cause there is alot of captha solver services.

Yes, definitely need. Also, each plugin should have link to post on nodebb or github with more details how and what is work.
