There!

Thanks a lot, @baris! On the other side, now I learned a little about mongodb and the inner workings of nodebb.

best,
Tom

This was the first time I updated NodeBB. It worked like a charm, really good work, thanks a lot people!

best,
Tom

One more thing: some of the users get this annoying message "Looks like your connection to NodeBB was lost, please wait while we try to reconnect" all the time, even while she's posting something. What's the point of that message anyway?

I mean, this is JS Code running on a client device. My users are not hipsters sitting with their latest apple gear in Berlin Prenzlauerberg, they are elder ladies with next to no IT knowhow. What is a user supposed to do when such a message appears?

Good software should not bother its users with such stuff. Your socket went away? Just reconnect already. Try it multiple times. And if nothing works, tell the user what happened, what you tried and what the user can do next.

Not just "lost connection". Hell, even I as the admin of the forum am unable to do anything about this.

This is what I see in the log:

2018-02-18T15:42:37.964Z [7934] - error: /login invalid csrf token

What am I supposed to do?

Tom

PS: sorry for ranting, nothing personal, just annoying to have couple of old people whining about errors impossible to fix or even analyse...

Ok, I forgot the "important". Now it works! Wow, love it, Thanks a lot!!!
