    • RE: Error starting NodeBB after upgrade

      @PitaJ : I don't think that not supporting Node 8 is an option in the long term as it will be the new LTS release of Node.js

      Anyway, this error is located in the daemon package and is easily fixed.
      I've created a Pull Request for that issue, and if it is accepted, we'll just have to update the dependencie version of that package in package.json

    • RE: Disable all RSS feeds

      @psychobunny Hi there,
      As of nodebb v1.7.2, we have a checkbox to disable RSS feeds,
      but the link for RSS feeds is still generated in the page head : <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="http://localhost:4567/category/2.rss?uid=3&token=305e32c5-9963-4bab-a4c1-fcdfa9c6c980" />
      And following this link leads to a 404.

    • RE: Related topics in [nodebb-plugin-widget-essentials] should be filterable by the category of their parent

      Awesome @baris : i should have a look at your changes ! πŸ‘
      I think we should be able to display more relevant topics by sorting the results with a good mixed ponderation...

      If we look at the newly Suggested Topics on bottom of this post.. they don't really seem to be particularly relevant to our discussion πŸ™‚

    • RE: Related topics in [nodebb-plugin-widget-essentials] should be filterable by the category of their parent

      Excellent work @baris (i noticed the routine maintenance screen) πŸ˜…
      Here is how i see it :
      The category filter is useful in my mind : sometimes it's just what we want because results from other sections of the forum could be totally irrelevant.. (it really depends on how your forum is divided...)
      If a category is given, we should be able to filter on the requested category, if not, maybe topics within the same category should just be given a higher weight to sort the requested n results..
      What do you think ? πŸ™‚

    • RE: Related topics in [nodebb-plugin-widget-essentials] should be filterable by the category of their parent

      @baris But yes.. you're right : there should be a better way to do this by matching topics on tags and titles at the same time, with some ponderation.. and with a category filter if given...

      @baris Thnxx for your explanation ! I got it now : the concat thing πŸ€“
      I almost agree with the priority given to tag matching over titles matching..
      But what is clearly missing is the category filter ! πŸ™‚

      @baris Well.. it's not ! 😭
      It seemed like a bug to me too.. at least, not what i expected.
      Then i noticed the mention :

      If placed on a page other than categoy will pull from all recent posts

    • Related topics in [nodebb-plugin-widget-essentials] should be filterable by the category of their parent

      I'm glad i discovered that displaying related topics is a feature of the widget-essentials plugin : Is there any plugin to show related or similar topics on topic page?
      However, after adding this widget in my topic footer i was really disapointed that the suggested topics weren't really that related as they didn't belong to the same category (forum) of the post in question.
      I expected the category filter of the widget to be intended just for that purpose but it doesn't work on topics pages (so what's the point ?):

    • RE: Redirection Plugin

      Thnxx @julian ! and congrats to all the team for all this awesome work on nodebb !! πŸ™‚

      I'm a little bit puzzled by your answer, and maybe i'm not getting it right.
      So, indulge me with a more thorough explanation of my use case :

      I've allready have put nginx in front of nodebb with this classic configuration :

      Introducing the build system in v1.4.x
      It handles all the static assets and then call nodebb for the dynamics parts.

      So, now, i just have to deal with something like 100-500 old topics (that have been correctly rewritten to our new nodebb urls with a different set of nginx redirect rules) but they are not here anymore, and i want to find redirections to new topics for the part of them that are the most requested..

      It's really an SEO thing : we don't want to loose the good rankings the old forum had.
      These old topics are have been indexed by google or some old facebook post and they are really frequently requested ...

      But i don't see the interest to put these (hundreds?) of special redirections rules inside nginx that handles allready every single request to nodebb ?? That would put a serious (indue) work on him on every request ?

      I really dream of a core nodebb plugin that could handle all these 404 inside nodebb when everything else have been tried (so that it would be a very scarce event).

      Like i've said before : it's really a use-case of dealing with a post-migration trauma because these 404 will for sure disappear with time and the new google indexations.. but we want to address them now so that we dont loose ranks...
      My boss is really watching the 404 pages as they happen, and he could deal with them in the back-office, but for sure he doesn't want to edit the nginx configuration files and me neither when a new 404 is detected...

    • Redirection Plugin

      Hi Everyone !
      I was looking for a plugin to handle the 404 errors πŸ‘©β€πŸš€ inside NodeBB.
      Instead of redirecting directly to the custom 404 page, i want to be able to try a specific set of rules (using regular expressions) to see if i can find a redirection to a better resource.
      I need this plugin because we migrated an old nukephp forum, and some of the ancien posts didn't make it through because they were obsolete in the new context.

      I searched through the Install Plugin page, but didn't find anything that could fit my needs.
      Does anyone know of a plugin that would be close enough, or what could be the best starting point to write mine ?

      Cheers,

      @baris Thanks !
      You were really quick.
      I have a slightly more complete PR here : https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/pull/6185
      because it happens on topics too.
      Cheers,
