    • RE: nodebb-theme-material v2.0 published

      @pichalite noticed a slight discrepancy between the login and the register windows.

      The login window has the social icons in the white block under the login button.

      The register window has the social icons outside the white box

      I'd personally like to have the social icons above the login / register button to make it more obvious that these can be used to sign in. (Not sure what the UI guidelines are for these things..)

    • RE: Scaling NodeBB on Google Cloud - Is this approach correct?

      It is taking me some time - mostly because I'm not familiar enough with NodeJS / NodeBB.

      Some observations:

      Took a while to get the ./nodebb setup routine to work - had to do it first for MongoDB and then for Redis and then combine the two files and restart (redis / mongodb nodejs files do not get installed on the npm install command).

      Then got stuck with launching multiple processes on reboot with systemd. Gave up on that and just used a crontab @ reboot line to run a shell script. Need to figure out how to restart / reload processes seamlessly.

      Found some issues with socket.io and spdy - did not investigate, disabled spdy on nginx.

      Found some issues with the 0.7.0 branch and upgraded to master 0.7.1 and found that much more stable. But these were plugin related - sections, adsense - dropped them both.

      Made the mistake of setting the production flag in the environment variable NODE_ENV. 🙂

      As of now, have a test site running persona, notifications plugins on a distributed setup - NFS / REDIS / MONGO DB on one server and a barebones NODEJS + NGINX/SSL on another.

      Seems stable for now on a test setup on https://devlib.org will give it a day or two while I play around with the templates / plugins and watch memory usage, before I go through another effort to set the autoscale / loadbalancer up.

      @baris @julian @psychobunny - I really like what I see so far. Well done. If all goes well with the setup / eval, I will be dropping you guys an email to see if I can fund some development. 🙂

      We really ought to transition it over to our SaaS services. Where do I send the bill?

      And where will users find you if, god forbid something goes down? All eggs one basket and all that...

    • RE: Uploaded avatars do not show up in email digest

      @suraj @julian - Technically not client related - this is gmail related. The googleusercontent thingy is a image serving proxy on gmail. One of those things you have to sort of live with.

      Try testing with a non-google imap client (perhaps outlook / thunderbird) I know it works on google hosted email accounts - custom domains which use the gmail service. I have not tested third party imap clients with a default @ gmail account - sorry.

    • RE: Facebook SSO Plugin - Email Issue

      @baris - will look at this and try and duplicate in php to figure out if this is a facebook platform issue or a issue with passport or the NodeBB plugin. And yes, that is indeed the facebook user id that I see. No clue why the emails are null on a couple of different accounts I have tested with.

    • RE: Change Composer to Redactor

      Does it need to be in the composer?

      Could you create a framework / API of sorts where any embed plugin gets called after the post is saved? I am not sure how the plugin API works right now, but if something was called with an array of links - it could then parse them and embed them in a flexible manner.

      I am personally keen on the embed.ly API (not the JS solution) as it gives some amount of flexibility on what can be embeded - I like that they return entities and taxonomy which can lead to richer tagging.

    • RE: Dev Question: Multiple Topics - Categories Page

      Ok, So if we were to modify code, would it be core code?

      Just to get a start, can you point out where the code for this would be so I can start reading it?

    • Dev Question: Multiple Topics - Categories Page

      I'm trying to develop a newspaper/blog type theme for NodeBB. Its been about a year since I've looked at the code /templates and have what might be a very basic question.

      On the 'categories' home page, using Lavendar / Persona themes as an example, I see that the category is displayed and the latest topic.

      What if I wanted to make the display like this:

      Category:
      -- 10 Latest Topics

      I see

                                                     <!-- BEGIN posts -->
      ....
                                                      <!-- END posts -->
      
      

      However, it appears that there is only one latest post here.

      Without modifying the code, is there a way for the theme to specify that it wants an X number of topics. Also, is there a way for the theme to specify that it only wants the topic meta and not the actual full post perhaps?

    • RE: Facebook SSO Plugin - Email Issue

      @kps - I suspect that is the issue. I don't have an active nodebb instance right now. In the middle of a few things. HOpefully resolve those issues and get back to nodebb over the weekend. 🙂

    • Tags - Are they timestamped?

      Guys,

      Have a quick question. Do tags have a timestamp on them in the backend?

      One of my new feature requirements is spotting trending tags and some sort of re-organisation of the tagging system to perhaps give people an alternative way to navigate the forum.

      Just curious...

      @kps - FYI, have been off nodebb for the last three weeks. Will get back to it with the latest codebase and will verify. Can you let me know if you Facebook app is published or was it in demo / sandbox mode?
