Hello all! I'm "Lethal" from Eternal Games. We are proud to be using NodeBB on our shiny new forums as a replacement for IPB. (And proud to use something made by fellow Canadians!)

You can find our forums at this url: http://forums.eternalgames.net/

This is something I've been wanting for a while now but it would be great if we could copy all the privileges from a category to another category.

A use case for this is for example, I have multiple "moderator" groups on my forum so instead of going and editing every single category I have, I set the permissions in General and then edit my other categories to pull in privileges from General.

EDIT: Additionally, it could be very useful to have the option to apply the privileges from a parent category to all of it's child categories.

This plugin is honestly one of the best out there in my opinion, it's a shame it's not updated more often!

It seems like no one can edit shouts, not even admins. I'm using the latest master from git.

@psychobunny What @Kowlin pointed is correct and does apply to us. We run a gaming community and have multiple games which each need separate Announcement, Updates, etc.. sections.

@pichalite Thank you!

So, on a fresh install of version 1.1.0 when clicking on the upvote/downvote buttons I get this:

I've also tried on the weekly builds with the same result. Any ideas what might be causing this?

@yariplus Yes of course

@pichalite I will attempt an upgrade to 0.9.x see if it fixed the issue. Thanks a bunch!!

Anyone? This is a pretty major thing for us :S

Hey all, there seems to be a problem with group permissions on my forums. For some reason, users are able to join private group without being accepted which is quite a problem as we have ~3k users and this sort of thing can become unmanageable very quick. We use groups on the forums for our staff members and they have special permissions to moderate topics etc..

I also noticed that when removing a user from said groups, I get a Error: Invalid data alert but the user does get removed from the group. Something is wrong but I cannot pinpoint what exactly and nothing shows up in the logs.

We are running 0.8.2 currently. Any help would be appreciated! If you need more information please ask and I shall oblige

@ffmad Looking good

This is cool as heck, could you share the code used to achieve this? I'm interested in having this on my forum as well

I'm having a similar error while trying to install NodeBB with Mongo.

Here's the full log:
