Ok, this works

<!-- IF categories.children.length -->
<!-- BEGIN children -->
<!-- IF @first -->(Sub-forums: <!-- ENDIF @first -->
<a href="\{relative_path\}/category/{categories.children.slug}" itemprop="url">{categories.children.name}</a>
<!-- IF !@last --> &middot; <!-- ENDIF !@last -->
<!-- IF @last -->)<!-- ENDIF @last -->
<!-- END children -->
<!-- ENDIF categories.children.length -->

Just put it somewhere between <!-- BEGIN categories --> and <!--END categories --> in home.tpl

And take both \ from {relative_path}.. it seems that nodebb parses it... so I had to type...

Hello, I have changing a vartiation of Lavender theme for some time called Aspic. As I am not able to ensure the regularity that I will continue updating it, I am leaving it as a git repo. I am still using 0.9.3 currently and don't know if it would work with 1.0.0.

Maybe I post screenshots later, but it is online at https://forum.thewizards.club

Hello, I would like to suggest a feature to avoid spam bots that is like the yahoo groups feature, a text box that the new user would ask with his own words for admins when registering, admin gets notified maybe via email as well, and then when the registration is authorized, the user gets notified via email.

Hello, I've changed lavender's category.tpl file, changed 2 things,

• Sidebar is In line, like in home, and subcategories and current category are both at left.
• Added a class to category stuff that allows to hide buttons and posts via css. It is quite workaround but is working.

file is here:

Ubuntu Pastebin

The class name is: .category-stuff-id-{cid} where {cid} is the number of category to be hidden (you can see category id in the browser's address bar after /category/), via admin panel, exemple, like in my test if one wants to hide category 22 , the person goes to "admin panel" -> "appearance" - > "custom css & html", and add a line at the end:

.category-stuff-id-22 { display: none; }

To use the file change /nodebb/node_modules/nodebb-theme-lavender/templates/category.tpl for it and then restart nodebb.

edit: if it is not working maybe you need to clear your browser's cache or use incognito mode to test it!!

you should checkout the branch v0.6.x

./nodebb stop
git pull
git checkout v0.6.x
git pull
./nodebb upgrade
./nodebb start

I would like to suggest threaded topics fb like, in addition to quoting a post. This would make possible for users to create multidimensional discussions and easier to read replies to certain specific posts inside the topics

Example:

TOPIC
-----
POST 1
-----
 |-> POST 3 in reply to POST 1
-----
   |----> POST 5 in reply to POST 3
-----
 |-> POST 4 in reply to POST 1
-----
 |-> ANOTHER POST in reply to POST 1
-----
POST 2

Hello, I dared (hope past of verb is this) to make a little variation of Lavender theme, it is published here

https://github.com/kassius/nodebb-theme-aspic

Later I post screenshots, but they are on Github above,

hope you like it.

I didn 't got this error but the python in my system is version 2.7.6.. the error is complaining that the version of python (version 3) is not supported. I see arch documentation here

Python - ArchWiki

please try this, see if python2 is installed in your system, use the command: whereis python, it should display /usr/bin/python2, if not, install it (i don't know the procedures in arch but the package is named python2), then do this as seen in the link above

mkdir ~/bin
ln -s /usr/bin/python2 ~/bin/python
ln -s /usr/bin/python2-config ~/bin/python-config
export PATH=~/bin:$PATH
./nodebb upgrade

the export path command will remain only for the session

Hello, I was sucessfull using this https://github.com/nfl/jquery-oembed-all

Just add to Admin CP -> Appearance - > Custom HTML & CSS then add to Custom Header and enable it.

<script src="https://rawgit.com/nfl/jquery-oembed-all/master/jquery.oembed.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://rawgit.com/nfl/jquery-oembed-all/master/jquery.oembed.css"  />

<script>
$(function(){
   $("div.topic-text a").oembed();
});
</script>

It doesn't embed all links, but if you use https you can have error by loading via http, i'm still seeing it. : )

edit. using this:

<script src="https://rawgit.com/kassius/jquery-oembed-all/master/jquery.oembed.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://rawgit.com/kassius/jquery-oembed-all/master/jquery.oembed.css"  />

<script>
$(document).ajaxComplete(function() {
   $("div.topic-text a").oembed();
});
</script>

With this code I was able to embed wikipedia articles through https and also pdf through scribd. Very cool!!

Well, I have no time for discuting bs with js;

The admin language files are inside [nodebb]/public/language/YOURFORUMLANGUAGE/admin/

I have made a python3 script to make an organized admin/ directory from the files downloaded from transifex. (You should download all files one by one, should be 30 or 40, takes 7~10 minutes)

1. Make a new directory
2. Dowload all translated .json files to that directory
3. They have names like for_use_nodebb_admin-advanced-events_pt_BR.json.
4. Save this script in a file called freak.python3 in the directory you created.

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import os
import glob
# use os.system("") to do it lil boy
import subprocess

# Files downloaded from transifex has this string in filename.
# This should be removed from them; change with yours.
language_str = "_pt_BR"

json_files = glob.glob('*.json', recursive=False)

dirs_created = list()

for file in json_files:
    ripped = file.split('-', 2) # 2 here is a hack to avoid splitting ip-blacklist.json and web-crawler.json

    json_filename = ripped[-1].replace(language_str,'')
    print(ripped)

    if len(ripped) == 3:
        directory = "admin/{0}/".format(ripped[1])
    elif len(ripped) == 2:
        directory = "admin/"
    else:
        directory = "ERROR/" # if this directory appears something went wrong

    if not directory in dirs_created:
        dirs_created.append(directory)
        print(directory)
        os.system("mkdir -p {0}".format(directory))

    print(json_filename)
    os.system("cp {0} {1}{2}".format(file, directory, json_filename))

1. CHANGE THE LINE language_str = "_pt_BR" WITH YOUR LANGUAGE KEEPING THE _ before..
2. Make it executable: chmod +x freak.python3
3. Execute it: ./freak.python3
4. This will create an admin/ directory inside the directory, tar it and send to server: tar zcvf admin.tgz admin/
5. scp admin.tgz SSHUSER@SSHSERVER: or whetever you use.

The javascript programmers (rofl) think people doesn't deserve a reply. Open $ource. (really hard to find github link in nodebb.org)

@teh_g Very good, that's why I always say, post your config files removing sensitive data. We would have helped you resolving this simple issue of removing the slash better.

@teh_g I think if you google something like nginx proxy escaping you can find solutions on stackexchange/stackoverflow so you can update your nginx config..

Hello, recently I finished the translation of the admin control panel files at transifex to my language (pt-BR). Is it possible to currently put that translation to work on my nodebb so I can fine tune/improve it?

Please post your apache/nginx config (after hiding sensitive data). If you're using linux it should be at /etc/apache2/sites-avaliable or /etc/nginx/sites-avaliable.
