@scottalanmiller maybe an official sticky post or nodebb site annoucement/alert

@agarcia17

I could be wrong but I don't remember any type of forum that would restrict admin access. They are admin for a reason.

Looking at this and wondering about the photo in the first post. What is the sample blog post? Is that just another forum post but styled differently or something else altogether. If it works like wordpress, one less software to install and make it 100% nodebb. Anyone with experience care to give examples of how this works?

I think it's important for a way to schedule post.

Admin can schedule certain announcements based on time and date

What do you think?

During the nodebb setup process getting this npm WARN message

info: Now configuring redis database:
Host IP or address of your Redis instance (127.0.0.1)
Host port of your Redis instance (6379)

npm WARN package.json reds@0.2.4 No repository field.

@j3nkl3r I think once it's stable enough, nodebb and nodebb CMS would work well for your sites. I'm guessing it's still a long way off.

@Reik

Thanks for the tip. It seems to have converted the config to a different format (ie: instead of base_url it now uses url) and it's working. Seems odd that everything would fail all of a sudden without any changes.

Is there some kind of automatic update in v0.5 that is outside of normal nodebb operation?

Was running v0.5 without any problems for months and when I went to check today, everything stopped working so I thought I needed to upgrade to v0.6

Here is what I did:
$ git fetch
$ git checkout v0.6.x
$ git merge origin/v0.6.x
$ git pull
$ ./nodebb upgrade
$ ./nodebb dev

Getting the error:
url.js:107 throw new TypeError("Parameter 'url' must be a string, not " + typeof url)

This would be the first real disappointment of nodebb for me since everything was running smoothly and it simply stopped.

What is the error referring to and how can I fix this?

Might sneak in some time to play.

Happy holidays everyone!

@a_5mith @julian

Ok, thanks guys! Just found it odd that I was able to make 70 posts without my email being confirmed.

Enjoy the holidays!

@a_5mith

I can understand that for new users but why would it prompt me after being on here for couple of months.

Is nodebb software itself designed to do that after a set period?

When I signed in here (nodebb forum) the system didn't recognize me and it prompted me to send confirmation email to activate. What happened?

Please explain.

Interesting to see many getting much better results

Just tested with Firefox and this time it's closer to what @pichalite got

58 / 100 (mobile)
74 / 100 (desktop)

• Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content
• Leverage browser caching
• Minify JavaScript
• Minify CSS

@pichalite

I just did the same test and you got better results

Mobile 48/100
Desktop 61/100

But it's not whitelabel. Should still work. (He says)

That would suit all needs without having to create one for each provider.

Topic tool to select multiple posts

for example:
click on topic tools and then click on select all deleted post
then you can also purge all of them

or a way to purge all deleted posts

Right now you have to click on each one.

What do you think?
