Thanks a lot @MJ.

Works fine!

@pitaj Thanks! With node v8.7.0 and npm v5.4.2, I was able to run ./nodebb upgrade and now I'm a proud member of the nodebb v1.7.4 club.

If I've understood things correctly, you have to activate the emoji-extended plugin, then the emoji-static plugin.

Once you restart your Nodebb, you should seen under Plugins > an emoji static option.

There you'll find a help file to tell you how to set up your own pack.

You have to create an index.json file.

Nevertheless, I'm trying it out now, but I can get it to work...

I believe that if you go in your profile in the set up page, the first box and option of that page is to force links to open in a new tab.
It would be nice to set up that option as default from the admin panel, but for now that works well.

Finally made it from v0.6.0 to v1.4.1

This was my upgrade route (hosted on DigitalOcean and with a mongo database - shell 2.6.7, node v0.10.38)

*v0.6 to v0.6.1
git fetch
git reset --hard origin/v0.6.x
git describe --tags
./nodebb upgrade

*v0.6.1 to v0.7.0
git checkout v0.7.0
./nodebb upgrade

npm install touch
npm install minimist
npm install colors

*v0.7.0 to v0.7.3
git reset --hard origin/v0.7.x 
git describe --tags
./nodebb upgrade

node app --upgrade

*install nvm
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.11.1/install.sh | bash
*Restart terminal
nvm install v0.10.39

* Change index.js in /root/"yourfoldername"/node_modules/connect-mongo from
*module.exports = require('./src');
*to
*module.exports = require('connect-mongo/es5');

*edit /etc/mongod.conf, to uncomment auth = true line 

service mongod restart

mongo
use admin
db.createUser({user: "adminname", pwd: "yourpassword", roles: ["readWrite"]})

use *name of the db where nodebb is installed*
db.updateUser( "adminname",
               {
                 roles : [
                           { role : "dbAdmin", db : "*name of the db where nodebb is installed*"  },
                           { role : "readWrite", db : "*name of the db where nodebb is installed*"  }
                         ]
                }
             )

./nodebb upgrade
./nodebb start
./nodebb stop

*v0.7.3 to v0.8.x
git checkout v0.8.x
git pull
./nodebb upgrade

./nodebb start
./nodebb stop

*v0.8.2 to v0.9.x
git checkout v0.9.x
git pull
./nodebb upgrade

./nodebb start
./nodebb stop

*v0.9.4 to v1.4.1
git checkout v1.x.x
git pull

nvm install v6.2.1
nvm use v6.2.1

./nodebb upgrade

*edit /etc/mongod.conf, to uncomment noauth=true line 

This should help to avoid any issue with mmmagic, kerberos, bluebird and the key_1_value_-1 already exist error.

Et voilà !

Thanks again for your help Julian !

Hi @jimmyc2018

I had the same issue once upgrading my nodebb installation from v1.4.2 to v1.5.1
The trick that worked out for me was to remplace the ip address in the "url" segment by my domain name in the config.json file.

Have you tried that out?

Check out this topic https://community.nodebb.org/topic/11324/error-listen-eaddrinuse-0-0-0-0-4800-looks-like-your-connection-to-nodebb-was-lost-please-wait-while-we-try-to-reconnect/9

changing for example,

"url": "http://localhost:4800", or "http://124.129.xxx.36:4800"

to

"url": "http://www.yourdomainname.com",

@yariplus You're right sorry! I checked yesterday quickly on my nodebb set-up and didn't think I had activated any special plugin for that. But after double checking, you're right it's the center align plugin that allows me to do this.

@JsonHive sorry for not being more clear at first.

Hello and thanks for the great plugin!

I've noticed that since my upgrade to Nodebb v1.4.x when uploading an image with the imgur plugin, before I had a lovely percent progression, 1% to 100% now I just have a "100%" mention next to the imgur link being generated.

Is there a way to correct this or did I do something wrong?

@zamky Did you go in the ACP to set the rights correctly? If I'm not mistaken, you have to go to Settings, then Upload where there is a complete section regarding Avatars/profile pictures.

I'm actually doing that.

Some changes, can go in the Admin Panel, through Appearance > Custom CSS & HTML. Changes will appear once you save them on that panel. No need to restart Nodebb.

But if you feel like playing with the tpl files, you should find them on your FTP, in the public folder > templates.

For the CSS files, you'll have to look in node_modules > theme used to find them.

In those two cases, you'll have to ./nodebb restart to see the changes.

Hope it helps!

get's you this

hi

If I'm correct, once I've uploaded a picture to a post, I simply add

>-> here paste the Image Link <-

And it works. Don't forget the spaces after and before the image link.

It won't work here, because there's the "Code" button in the composer activated.

@brian4021 Thanks a lot! I'll have a look at this and let you know if I manage to fight my way through it.

@brian4021 nice set up! May I ask what's the Discord button on the left corner at the bottom? Didn't find any official plugin for that.

@zamky did you try to reboot your forum and log off and log back on? Are you sure your user is going to the correct place on his profile to upload an avatar?

@zamky Did you go in the ACP to set the rights correctly? If I'm not mistaken, you have to go to Settings, then Upload where there is a complete section regarding Avatars/profile pictures.

In the ACP, just put this in the Custom CSS section

.categories-title {
    display: none;
}
