In short mode, it allows me to write off the screen which drives me a little crazy, and in tall mode, it blocks all the other replies 100%.
Are there any plugins or themes that change this behavior? I'm not even sure what the best way would be, but I'd just like to see other options. Even if there was one that worked the way old forums worked, I'd take that... or the way reddit works.
Thanks and sorry if sound too critical, it's still an amazing BBS!
Ah okay, well good to know, I thought I was just unlucky. Thanks for looking into it. And I will look into having another server for testing in the future but not sure, I'm having enough trouble keeping one going as it is Haha
Oh ok, I guess sandboxing means for quick testing? Like it's not recommnded to use a real forum with just redis. OK thanks
Another question - let's say i set up a server and it has nodebb+nodejs+redis+mongodb...
and i make backups of only mongodb...
and the server crashes and i lose everything (but i still have my backup)...
can i set up a new server and install nodebb+nodejs+redis+mongodb... but this time maybe they have a new version of nodebb out, or something like v1.2...and then I run some utility to repopulate mongodb with my old data.....
will my new server work? what is the recommended way of doing things? because im a newbie and im sure i will be breaking things probably 
i already broke it twice today
Hello,
I have a newbie question on nodebb. I understand the recommended 'database' for nodebb is redis and nothing else. From what I've read on redis, it stores all the data in memory.
Let's say I have a 512mb ram server, if I get too many posts, does it crash because it needs to keep all posts in ram?
Thanks for your time 
hello, thank you for asking. i tried to add this
npm install --save nodebb-plugin-videoplayer
npm: nodebb-plugin-videoplayer
this plugin embeds an HTML5 video player. when upload a video this does not appear as a link but as players in the content. Accepted video formats MP4, WEBM, MOV, OGV.
i believe the start command happened to the remote server, because i dont even have it set up on my pc for it to work.
i know its not approved for v1.0 but i thought it would possibly work in some way (or should i wait for any plug in to be updated to say 1.0 before trying it?)
Aha that is amazing. Yes, that does help, thank you. Now i know, it's fine for me, but i dont think users will figure it out and might be turned off on first use.
Is there a number I can change somewhere in the source code to change this to be e.g. 75% of screen height for all users by default? The default value is nice but too low. Not a big deal but would be nice.

thank you! maybe i will try doing the windows one first.
question if i use windows... if i modify my nodebb locally... and later upload it to a linux host, will that still work?
or should i make a linux VM and run nodebb... and then later if i upload that to a linux host it will work better?
sorry, i'm very new at this. ive only run a wordpress blog before but it was much simpler.
does this work if the person posts a link to a webm file, or must they upload it? also is this ever going to be updated to work with 1.0 (i know it just came out :3) but i tried the one i found on git and it didnt work
