I've never needed to do that but I BELIEVE you might just have to go into your profile and set the email again and get it sent when doing that.

@theo1 said in Why I chose to use nodeBB over phpBB, Discourse, MyBB and other forums.:

I was trying to choose between Discourse and nodeBB as a way to let readers interact with my Ghost powered blog and came across your article. Thanks for writing up why you like nodeBB.

Five years on NodeBB with this large site and we've been super happy with it. Performance is great, updates are regular, support is great.

To this forum itself?

Not rude, just wondering why you were tagging me for input for plugin requests. I'm a pretty random person to have asked to respond about them.

Cos, You replied to my previous thread. So I thought you'll be throwing some light about NodeBB.

Sure, but your questions were about feature requests. Your original question was about when NodeBB would be enterprise maintained, and that was easy to answer... five years ago and continuously since then. It's absolutely enterprise ready now.

Your next set of questions weren't really questions, but just mentions of features specific for you that you'd like someone to develop. There wasn't really a question to answer there, it's just a note that you'd like to see those features. Not much that I, as a long time user, can say about those.

I can shed light on the usual paths... you can make a thread requesting them (one thread each or no one will notice), but unless they get loads of traction, there is no reason to assume that NodeBB will even consider that - that's not how the core system works. You can hope that others want them too and that someone third party makes a plugin for you to use, but if that is going to happen it is most likely to have already happened. You can offer a bounty on the plugins. Or you can hire either NodeBB themselves or a third party to make plugins. That's easy to do, but expensive.

Other than that, I'm just an end user like you, but not one that wants those features so am glad that NodeBB is not focusing on them.

The reason that no one responded to that particular post is because, if you read it, there isn't a question - nothing that would warrant a response. So I had read it, but it just seemed like you were mentioning a wish list. Which would make no sense for me to respond to since you weren't wishing it from me.

@Lewis-Adams said in NodeBB connection has been lost, attempting to reconnect:

I paid somebody to install nodebb for me and all was going fine...

Did they set it up and then drop you? Or are they unable to complete setting it up and you discovered that they had never done this before and didn't know how to do it?

Chances are you either have a reverse proxy misconfigured in front of NodeBB, or your config.json file is not set up for the subdomain that you are using to pass websockets. This is pretty common.

Sorry If my reply is rude, I wasn't rude. I just wanted to confirm few things. Anyways, Thanks for the reply back. Always loved NodeBB.

@roy-miller said in Database and web server in separate vps?:

How can I install nodebb webserver and database in separate vps for scaling? Please share tutorial?

What do you need to know? It's as easy as installing the database on one VM and the app on another. When you put in the configuration information to the app in config.json it handles everything right there automatically, there is nothing "to know."

Now be aware, unless you are scaling to an absurd degree, this will have a serious negative effect of slowing your site down by adding latency. And I know of no NodeBB site that needs it. What kind of traffic are you expecting? We'd estimate that you'd need over a billion hits a month to even need to talk about something like this, and even then, it would only be "on your radar" and not something that you need.

I would step back and evaluate this carefully. Do you really feel that you are going to run the largest NodeBB installation of all time by orders of magnitude? And if so, maybe you want to bring in specialists who are very used to working with NodeBB and MongoDB and large scale scaling because you are going to need this to really, really work and not just be the first time you are experimenting with setting up something of this nature.

Ours only detects 0.3.2 as well.

@scottalanmiller Could you please reply ?

Those are nice sounding features, but should come from the community in the form of plugins, they are not core to the platform. And they certainly aren't part of the topic of "enterprise grade". Those are features that are reasonable, but certainly not necessary or always wanted.

If you feel those things are useful to you, you can add them.

Not sure why you want me to respond about them. I definitely do NOT want NodeBB to look like Discourse. And I have no idea why I'd want badges, but can imagine that maybe we'd find a use for them, maybe. But coming from communities that have been destroyed by "gaming" mentality, I'm very hesitant to want them.
