I have implemented SSO in ASP.net MVC using the sample code on this site as a guide.

The SSO authentication feature works great, however my group membership is not working.

Here’s the relevant code:

string returnPayload = "nonce=" + Server.UrlEncode(nonce) +
                        "&email=" + Server.UrlEncode(email) +
                        "&external_id=" + Server.UrlEncode(externalId) +
                        "&username=" + Server.UrlEncode(username) +
                        "&bio=" + Server.UrlEncode(bio) +
                        "&avatar_url=" + Server.UrlEncode(avatar_url) +
                        "&name=" + Server.UrlEncode(name);

// process groups
if (CurrentUser.IsAdministrator)
{
    returnPayload += "&add_groups=admins,moderators,staff";
}
else if (CurrentUser.IsStaff)
{
    returnPayload += "&remove_groups=admins&add_groups=moderators,staff";
}

For us, Staff is similar to moderator and Admin is the highest privileged user. My goal is to remove any obsolete groups while adding appropriate groups.

When a user logs in, all the other attributes are set, but groups are not.

Am I removing and assigning groups correctly?

Is it possible to assign admin, moderator, and staff groups this way?

Thank you.

We currently have a jump to top button (anchor points to a div in the header) to make it easy to go back to the top of a category. Ideally it would also work for topics, but the first post of a topic is not necessarily the start of the page. I was wondering if anyone might be interested in helping with a JS that could detect user is on a topic page, and thus reload the full page in this instance so that it jumps to post 1. Or see if anyone else has other suggestions on how we could pull this off cleanly

I use those scripts to add a chat icon and a button on the header:

<script type="text/discourse-plugin" version="0.8">
api.decorateWidget('header-icons:before', helper => {
    return helper.attach('link', {
        className: 'btn-primary btn-small login-button donate-button',
        rawLabel: "Dona",
        target: '_blank',
        href: "https://www.patreon.com/xxxxxxx"
    });
});
</script>

<script>Discourse._registerPluginCode('0.8', function (api) {

    api.decorateWidget('header-icons:before', function (helper) {
        return helper.h('li', [helper.h('a#chat-button', {
            href: 'https://discordapp.com/invite/xxxxxxxx',
            title: 'chat',
            target: '_blank'
        }, helper.h('i.fa.fa-comments-o.chat-button-icon'))]);
    });
});</script>

and some CSS for them:

#chat-button {
    display: block;
    padding: 3px;
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #fff;
    cursor: pointer;
    border-top: 1px solid transparent;
    border-left: 1px solid transparent;
    border-right: 1px solid transparent;
    transition: all linear .15s;
    width: 32px;
    height: 32px;
    font-size: 1.714em;
    line-height: 32px;
}

#chat-button:hover {
    color: #222;
    background-color: #e9e9e9;
    border-top: 1px solid transparent;
    border-left: 1px solid transparent;
    border-right: 1px solid transparent;
    border-radius: 50%;
}
.widget-link.btn-primary.btn-small.login-button.donate-button:before {
    content: url("/uploads/default/original/2X/5/5bc11ad110b6087ea9384dde531985d614306a91.png");
    margin-right: 3px;
}
.widget-link.btn-primary.btn-small.login-button.donate-button {
    background: #F96854 !important;
    margin-left: 5px;
    padding: 5px 10px;
}

Everything works very well if I use my default theme.

The problem arise when I change theme on my profile. At the moment I’ve installed only the Material Design Theme.

When I add the stylesheet above as a theme component of material design the second script relative to the icon chat is loaded twice:

How can I fix it?

UPDATE: I cut the script and put it in a separate stylesheet without adding it to the themes. Now The default theme no longer has the icon chat, but the other theme continues to show it.

I’ve tried both with other browsers and anonymous windows…the result is the same.

So how long does it take? We are only trying out the forum software, so there’s only so much they can post?

Hey Discourse Team,

This marks the 1-year-and-1-month anniversary of the Rails 5 release, it looks like 5.1.3 will be out soon (second release candidate lands today). Wondering if there have been any thoughts on upgrading Discourse to Rails 5.x anytime soon? Why or why not?

One of my users on my old forum has gotten cold feet about moving to Discourse and is claiming that Discourse has “poor searchability” because it ONLY returns 50 search results.

He also says Discourse has “poor archivability” because he will not be able to sift through 300 old posts way back in time fetched with some search term.

What can I tell him to ease his nerves?

I’m working on a redesign of the Admin Dashboard (found at /admin).

It currently displays a lot of data but I believe we could do a better job at providing the right kind of data.
i.e. the things the community builders need to know at a glance to monitor health & growth and to diagnose problems.

What features would be included in your oh-my-god-this-is-the-best-community-dashboard-ever dashboard?

What info do you want to get at a glance?

This has been bugging me for awhile now, figured I’d submit a PR to fix it. With a quick glance, it’s easy to overlook the ability to add members via the groups admin UI. This PR adds placeholder text to the add members field.

Right now, the only way admins can specify manual spam classifiers is using case-insensitive regex.

However, this has proved to be insufficient to me on PyTorch forums that I’ve been running. I’ve also enabled Akismet, but it isn’t doing a great job of filtering the kind of spam I’m seeing.

To give an example, this is an example spam entry:

슈퍼카지노- (₮【79SCV.ＣoM】₮) -SUPER카지노슈퍼카지노- (₮【79SCV.ＣoM】₮) -SUPER카지노

The website and posts keep changing, but there are some clear patterns that repeat such as ＣoM.
If there was an inline code snippet that I could write in admin/site_settings/category/spam, I think I can get rid of all such spam. It would be so much more convenient to filter spam with advanced filters.

Any thoughts on this?

I have tried the latest discourse with official Docker image few days, and I found the regular backup operation would be failed every time, the error log contains:

FATAL: Peer authentication failed for user "postgres"

When I typed this issue, I got few similar topic in the right, after I checked them I think this is still a new unfixed problem. And the solution comes from here, as current postgresql installed built in docker image, need change the configuration of postgresql like:

#TYPE  DATABASE        USER            ADDRESS                 METHOD
local    all             all                                     trust

So with this configuration the backup function would be work. I didn’t checked a lot in current issue list, if there is fix about it, please ignore this.

Hello folks,

we would like to announce a stable version of Ansible Discourse, it is an ansible playbook that helps you to confgure and provision the Discourse Docker easily.

I hope that this project can be useful for everyone who wants to install and configure a new Discourse.

Do you have any feedback?

Contributors are welcome

At the moment we wrote two scripts (scripts/) that can be used to run the provisioning on a local vagrant machine or AWS. It could be useful to add support for other providers, like DigitalOcean, Google Cloud, and other.

Hi,

I would like to host a second forum on an OVH VPS. Main standalone discourse instance runs on the domain root (https://zbeul.org) and I want the new one to be ran on https://mao.zbeul.org.

I figured the best solution would be 2 standalone instances with nginx proxy_pass in front.

I thoroughly read the following threads:

• https://meta.discourse.org/t/advanced-troubleshooting-with-docker/15927
• https://meta.discourse.org/t/multisite-configuration-with-docker/14084/42
• https://meta.discourse.org/t/running-other-websites-on-the-same-machine-as-discourse/17247
• https://meta.discourse.org/t/setting-up-let-s-encrypt-with-multiple-domains/56685

I just nuked my config files, removed the front nginx and reverted to my previous app.yml for the sake of a fresh start.

Has anyone tried this kind of installation?
If we come to a solution I’ll be happy to put up a wiki page for this specific case.

Thanks!

Hi there,

I notice the variable {more_replies} sometimes does not return a value.
On most posts it works, but for some, it just returns a blank: https://www.screencast.com/t/R02jRiiULe5k

Check out live URL: https://networklessons.com/cisco/ccna-routing-switching-icnd1-100-105/introduction-to-ethernet/

Please note I changed the template via filter discourse_replies_html, but this is still the case on the default Discourse templates (by removing the filter). I did not see any errors in my PHP logs.

Hello,

since some hours I am reading here in the forum to find a solution for my template problem…

We have a running webshop which has a header / left navigation and a footer.
We want to integrate discourse as smooth as possible for the users.

My question now is if it is possible to get some dynamic content to be rendered in template.

My suggestion is to make a small crawler on my own page to get the HTML for header/footer/navi each day.

My problem now is how to get this HTML in the template for discourse?
Has somebody some idea?

Thanks in advance!
