I'm running NodeBB for my motorcycling forum at https://www.sportbikes.ws

What's fun about this installation is that I'm using AWS with an Elastic Load Balancer in front of an Auto-Scaling group. NodeBB source is sitting on a common NFS mount using Elastic File System. The t2.micro instances bootstrap themselves and mount this NFS share, then fire up NodeBB and register themselves behind the load balancer. They connect to an ElastiCache redis cluster. I'm also using AWS Kinesis to land events from nginx and syslog from each host into ElasticSearch (by way of an AWS Lambda which beats up the log data a bit) to visualize with Kibana.

Some samples:

Admin Dashboards by way of AWS's implementation of Kibana in their ElasticSearch: (Pardon the nginx error count - I just went through an upgrade to 1.5.1 and it got a bunch of Bad Gateway errors in the logs ... which showed up on the dashboard)

Ahhhhhhhh VERY interesting. Thanks so much for the info there - thought i was losing my mind for a moment.

Nice moves man ... thank you so much!

Yes - I have it working..

Couple things:

1. I had to reinstall the plugin using npm install nodebb-plugin-emailer-local. You'll notice in the plugin.json file - the line:
   { "hook": "action:email.send", "method": "send" }
   changes to:
   { "hook": "filter:email.send", "method": "send" }

2. I had to ensure my keys in redis for SMTP username and password contained the proper creds. It seems like the admin page doesn't write back to the proper keys when saving the data ... and when the plugin runs, it pulls from the wrong keys. If you're using redis - check the key settings by starting redis-cli and then inspecting:
   hget config emailer:local:username
   hget config emailer:local:password

If they need to be updated, use:
hset config emailer:local:username <proper username>
hset config emailer:local:password <proper password>

once that's completed, restart your nodebb instance and verify email is working now.

Running v0.8.2 and using imgbed plugin to render images directly from URLs within the post content. Having an odd issue where images show rotated in 90-degree fashion.

Have a look at: http://sportbikes.ws/topic/36/cox-radiator-guard-ftw

Clicking on the image shows it in its natural state (it's shown rotated to a landscape view in the post content, but clicking on it opens it and displays in a portrait orientation).

I don't see any CSS transforms going on that would rotate the image in the post content. WTF?
