Great, productivity going to grind to a halt while all three devs spend 5 days downvoting every single post we've made since day 1

Depends on how you've started NodeBB, these days we've got the loader.js functionality in, but not everybody's switched over from using forever app.js, etc - this will not auto-restart and will display an error

yup, you'll need to be on edge to get this so pull and upgrade.

what we have here is just a basic up/down vote feature - anything more specific to this ex. moving up responses, or auto-hiding / deleting posts that have too many downvotes, or thread summarization we will leave for plugins (three great plugin ideas, gogogogo!)

Any Plugin!

You have to restart NodeBB for a plugin to activate

im having an issue where if im on any page and i click the site title, it reloads a blank page with just the header, but if i refresh the page through the browser it loads the homepage.

Did you add any widgets to your custom homepage? If so, do you see any errors in your console? Also, I'll assume you're fairly up to date wrt core yes?

for this plugin or any plugin? no errors?

this is the most awesome thing anyone's ever contributed to nodebb. even more awesome than this:

and that's saying a lot.
