Hello all,
https://meta.discourse.org/c/21.json returns a “not found”
whereas https://meta.discourse.org/c/support/wordpress.json works as expected.
wordpress(id = 21) is a subcategory of categorysupport(id = 6).
[url]/c/6.jsonalso works as expected.I imagine this is not intentional right?

Hi I have created a new category and it crashes. How to make it work again? Currently, it’s just blank. I have restarted the app. Same result blank except for the /logs.
Thanks to anyone who can help.
Here are the logs:

Help!
I just attempted to update a long running discourse instance.
I went to /var/discourse as root and ran:
git pull ./launcher rebuild appIt’s now just hanging at:

I have a backup thankfully.
The droplet is running Ubutnu 12.04.5
What should I do to get up and running again?

We’ve seen a few “what’s your favourite X?” topics on my forum, and inevitably, one or two members don’t understand the concept of “favourite,” and post a slew of replies of all the things they like. Nothing kills a topic like domination.
I’d like to be able to restrict some topics to one reply per user. I think it would encourage participation, and encourage people to think about their post.
Anyone else have a similar use case?

GitHub - discourse/discourse_docker: A Docker image for Discourse says:
You can bootstrap new web processes while your site is running and only after it is built, switch the new image in.
We have our Postgres database running externally, but when we tried to bootstrap a new instance on a new machine, it appeared to work, but then gave HTTP 500 errors when accessing it. I noticed that
shared/standalone/uploadswas empty and our site logo was 404ing – I was under the mistaken impression that all of the state was contained inapp.ymland the Postgres database.Do we have to give the new instance a clean Postgres database in order to be able to log in and restore a backup? Or is there some other supported way of moving the data over?
I’m struggling to understand how multiple web instances can work if they depend on local files…!
Thanks

Is this related the upgrade to commonmark, @sam?I use it to hide admin info at the bottom of welcome PMs triggered via wordpress, and now it’s appearing so I guess I need to update my template. See screenshots.

I’ve just released a new plugin for Discourse that adds a
/styleguidepath that renders a bunch of the common components and UX elements that Discourse uses:Right now it doesn’t have too many components available, but I’d like to add to it over time to be more comprehensive. In fact, I’d love it if people in the community would submit more examples from our application to make it even more comprehensive.

Hello all — I am not a developer, so please forgive any ignorance, but I am looking to determine if it’s possible to use the Discourse API or webhooks to pull metrics Discourse is tracking in my community forum into Google Analytics and/or Google Data Studio? Specifically, I want to track new topics, new replies, new users and cumulative users. Thanks in advance for any help!

This is the user:

Having the exact same issue as this locked thread, which annoyingly has no solution specified.
At some point in the past ~10 days, the preview window stopped working. The problem seems to be due to the markdown-it-bundle JS file failing to load due to a mixed content warning:
_ember_jquery-a8dcbd325e04410f036f2a791d66d8316c48c5387acdd914de99a5dd6afb3cd3.js:9248 Mixed Content: The page at 'https://discourse.bigdinosaur.org/t/testing-messagebus-updating/1345/3' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure script 'http://discourse.bigdinosaur.org/assets/markdown-it-bundle-95eab67cdea904c1edf468e5ed93ba3d0ed27da63e4428828e8a566506f74391.js'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.OP posted here indicating that they fixed the issue by specifying
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;in the reverse proxy in front of discourse; unfortunately, I already have that header set and have had it set for literally years.I do not have
force_httpsset to on, because that makes Discourse break horribly (no one can log in via any method and the login window responds to everything with “UNKNOWN ERROR”). I suspect this is because that setting makes a lot of assumptions about what’s in front of discourse and it doesn’t make the right assumptions for my setup, which is:Internet <-https-> HAProxy SSL termination <-http-> Varnish cache <-http-> nginx master reverse proxy <-http-> Discourse
It’s apparently impossible to copy the full contents of chrome’s console without doing stupid shit, so here’s a screenshot of the error.
Anyone interested in taking a look shoudl be able to trigger it themselves—just go to discourse.bigdinosaur.org, create an account, and try to post something. You don’t even have to actually create a message—just invoking the composer will trigger the error.
There don’t appear to be any entries in Logster.
Is there a setting I can change, or something? Not really sure how to proceed to fix.

A few questions:
- Is it additive or multiplicative? To make it “no extra weight” should it be set to 1 or 0?
- Can it be set to a non-integer value like 1.5?
- Does it impact digests as well as the “top” topic list?

Hello everyone,
We have developer forums hosted in Discourse, and it is currently blocked (by timeout) by The Great Firewall of China, or so I think.
I was concerned that Akismet or some other behavior in Discourse could be blocking Chinese IP addresses wholesale, but I am not sure if this is the case.
I was wondering anyone had tips with getting Discourse to be acceptable to the firewall?
Is there some way to mirror a Discourse forum, to try and host from multiple IP addresses?

Hi,
Our site used to have default locale set to “suomi” (“fi”).
This has stopped working, and when as an admin I go to forum preferences (admin/site_settings/category/required) and change the user default locale to “suomi” and press save, the value remains but has no effect. After reloading preferences page, the value is again “English”.

In order to upgrade to latest, I had to do one of those manual rebuilds (as instructed when I visited
/admin/upgrade) and it didn’t go as smoothly as it used to.Upon first try,

My forum also seems to be running just fine. Does that mean I’m fine? What was all the hiccup about?
In case it matters: before I was asked to to the manual rebuild, I had to update the docker manager (all update buttons grey, except for the docker manager). That update seemed to have gone fine.

In our assistance category we have a form where we ask some informations, including the first three numbers of the user network’s IP.
Some users write it all and moderators edit the post by replacing the last IP numbers with x, e.g.2.235.xxx.xxx
in replace of
2.235.111.222![]()
This happens only if we use
xand only from the latest site updates so I do not understand if this behavior is intentional or not.The problem is that if users click on the link (which does not exist) they are redirected to a new tab with the error “unable to contact the server”
Any idea please?
