Thanks @Mr_Waffle !

I started implementing this method in my static page plugin. I actually saw it in your shoutbox code on github (and stole it ) before you wrote this how to.

@psychobunny Oh, maybe I didn't understand the new staticDirs mapping.

I had it set to:

"staticDirs": {
    "public":"public"
}

OK, just did a test and changing "staticDirs" worked. It's not super obvious what the objects meant, since the example I saw just had "public":"public".
I changed it to be:

"staticDirs": {
    "pathName": "actualDirectory"
}

and that worked.

Here's what my working config looks like:

"staticDirs": {
    "leaguezone":"public"
}

and addScripts:

addScripts: function(scripts, callback) {
    return scripts.concat([
        "plugins/leaguezone/js/transparency.min.js",
        "plugins/leaguezone/js/leagueZone.js",
        "plugins/leaguezone/js/results.js",
        "plugins/leaguezone/js/leagues.js"
    ]);
}

Thanks!

@julian This is what I have in addScripts, but it appears to be crashing before it ever gets called.

addScripts: function(scripts, callback) {
	return scripts.concat([
		"plugins/nodebb-plugin-static-leaguezone/js/transparency.min.js",
		"plugins/nodebb-plugin-static-leaguezone/js/leagueZone.js",
		"plugins/nodebb-plugin-static-leaguezone/js/results.js",
		"plugins/nodebb-plugin-static-leaguezone/js/leagues.js"
	]);
}

I just pulled the latest from github and now my forum is crashing. It appears to be tied to my static-page plugin filter:scripts.get hook. If I remove that hook, it doesn't crash.

Here's the dump:

Also, here's my hooks from plugin.json

"hooks": [
	{ "hook": "filter:admin.header.build", "method": "init.admin.addNavigation", "callbacked": false },
	{ "hook": "filter:admin.create_routes", "method": "init.admin.addRoute", "callbacked": true },
	{ "hook": "filter:header.build", "method": "init.global.addNavigation", "callbacked": false },
	{ "hook": "filter:server.create_routes", "method": "init.global.addRoute", "callbacked": true },
	{ "hook": "filter:scripts.get", "method": "init.global.addScripts", "callbacked": false },
	{ "hook": "action:app.load", "method": "init.load", "callbacked": false }
]

Thanks @baris!

I had a user telling me he couldn't reset his password, so I went through the process.

I entered my email and clicked reset password. I received an email with a link back to my forums.

When I open the password reset link, I can enter a new password, but the Reset Password button is disabled.

I'm using latest code from github.

@julian, sorry to derail the thread, but is there a running list of available hooks somewhere, so we don't have to search through code?

@barveyhirdman said:

@kevin you shouldn't edit /etc/nginx/sites-enabled directly.

The normal flow of enabling sites is

• nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/<site-name>
• write config
• ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/<site-name> /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/<site-name>

This creates a symbolic link to the file in sites-available. Anyway, the default config is usually in the default file, other than that a good convention can be <subdomain>.<domain>, or in your case just californiamotorcycleforum.com

For some reason when I did the symbolic link nginx didn't pick it up, I had to just copy the file from sites-available to sites-enabled.

I've been using cloud9 ide https://github.com/ajaxorg/cloud9/ for nodejs stuff.

@psychobunny, I got nginx proxy running now, so you can change mine to just http://digitalhydros.uhlhydroplanes.com/

That's still not the permanent url yet though (which is why I hadn't posted it in here yet).

nodebb-plugin-emailer-mandrill

basically copied your mailgun files,
Ctrl+R "mailgun" "mandrill"
npm publish

don't try this at home

I tried it at home, and it worked! Thanks for the plugin!

@julian said:

Haha, you're right! I guess that means your suggestions were very good

Edit: Still thinking of changing the "envelope" to fa-comment-o with a # inside of it.

I like that idea

yeah, something like that.

I noticed when I quote someone's post it doesn't automatically add @username of the user I'm quoting. I was just thinking that it'd be nice if it did that for you.

I'm pretty sure you won't send more than 10k emails a day

I think its 10k/month, but I highly doubt I'll ever use that much.

I'll update, it's not that big of a deal, I'd rather stay on the bleeding edge while I'm developing the site.

I just got sendmail/postfix working on my server yesterday!

As long as I don't have to pay for one of these services its fine.

Is there currently no way to tell a theme to use custom tpl files? That would probably solve this issue.

I was wondering this myself before I dive into editing the templates.

heh, all right, I'll hold off on that for now anyway, I have a bunch of other stuff to get done.

I got emails working, is there an easy way to send the password reset emails to every user?
