Is it possible to get a list of users by trust level?

Let’s say I want to get a list of users who have a certain trust level. Is this doable? I could search for posts from users of a certain trust level e.g.:

@trust_level_4 order:latest

but this doesn’t get me users who haven’t posted, and there’s a lot of clutter to sort through. I’m looking for something similar to the Users page for each trust level, and maybe for the default groups (staff, admin, moderators) as well. I tried using @trust_level_4 in Users’ filter, but it didn’t work because it only supports searching for text in names.

Hello is there a way I get notifications on my site about new discourse post by using discourse API asynchronously, i.e without having to poll for new posts? should I use a faye web socket?

Unlisting a thread breaks links that have old thread names

@Drew_Warwick wrote:

The Bug:

A Discourse topic link looks like this:

https://meta.discourse.org/t/welcome-to-meta-discourse-org/1

Normally the title, the bit between the /t/ and /topicId at the end, does not matter, so I could change it to anything and it would still redirect to the same topic so long as the topicId is correct:

https://meta.discourse.org/t/welcome-to-hell/1

This is great behavior because if the topic’s name is changed, old links to it still work. However, this behavior is broken with unlisted threads. Unlisted threads can only be accessed with the current title, and all other links are broken – they do not redirect.

Use Case:

Our forum has community mentors that PM users to suggest how they can improve their posts. We link the threads that warrant the PMs on a spreadsheet so other mentors don’t send duplicate PMs and moderators can occasionally review us. If our site moderators unlist a thread that has had its name changed since the link was entered into the spreadsheet, the link in the spreadsheet is now broken, and the site moderators have to search all topics by the user to find the thread.

Odd display/formatting post update

0

@sianwhite wrote:

Hi everyone,

We recently updated our version of discourse, and ever since the formatting of the homepage has gone a bit funny.

The banner to enable the user to create a new topic pops up automatically when the page loads, and the design/formatting is overlapping. It also pre-fills with a category description, which isn’t ideal.

Is this something that I can realistically fix (bearing in mind my non-existent dev knowledge), or will it be something for a developer?

Thank you

Change email-addresses using the API?

Hello,
I’m trying to change the email-addresses of users with the help of a PHP script. The documentation on docs.discourse.com does not mention anything about usage of the “update email” put requests (or put requests in general). Can anyone explain how I have to insert my api-key and the new email address into the request in order for this to work? I’d also appreciate a cURL terminal-command if that’s easier.

Plugin install statistics

@David_Taylor wrote:

So this is really cool:

I wonder, do @team collect any similar statistics for plugin installations? It would be really cool to know what are the most used plugins for Discourse. Right now the only real measure I can see is the number of posts on meta about the plugin - and that generally just means something has gone wrong with it :wink:

One example of a plugin that loads of people clearly use, but haven’t posted about much is the dropbox sync plugin (3rd topic in the “top” list of Meta for this year). It’s just recently got a lot of posts about it because it’s broken :laughing:.

If it’s not something you collect, is it something you’d be interested in adding to the existing version check pings?

Private Forum - Groups only

Hi I wondered if it would be possible to set up a number of groups with just one client and admin, they’ll only be able to read and write to their own forum.

So no community at all.

All clients unaware of each other, no member’s list.

No leakage in newsletters/emails.

Thanks

Synology Docker install

I am running DSM 6.1.3 on my Synology NAS, including Docker. I’d love to get Discourse running on it as a test environment. For some reason I can’t seem to get it working.

Running Docker I can get the docker image. But when I SSH into it (via Docker Terminal on my Synology web interface) I can browse the various folders. But nowhere do I see files and folders I’m used to. Like the discourse-setup file and everything.

Anyone any idea how to progress from here? It seems ridiculous to install Ubuntu inside Docker and then install Docker inside that Ubuntu image. Kind of like Inception.

Topic progress positioning is a very inconsistent

Depending on page width the positioning of the topic progress moves around.

None of these positioning are particularly ideal, but some look pretty terrible visually.

@awesomerobot any chance you can clean this up, so we stop doubling up on so many rules there?

Hi there!

I’ve installed development environment on my Ubuntu 16.04 local machine by following this tutorial. Everything is fine. Discourse is work perfect on localhost:3000.

I want to import my Mybb forum database to my local Discourse installation. I want to apply the steps there, but when i use ./launcher enter app it failed. (bash: ./launcher no such file or directory)

cd /var/discourse
./launcher enter app
apt-get update
apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev mc -y
gem install mysql2  # mysql2-0.3.18 got installed
su - discourse
cd /var/www/discourse/script/import_scripts
bundle install
mcedit mybb.rb  # make edits to the MySQL connection details
RAILS_ENV=production ruby mybb.rb  # no idea what "bundle exec" does

What should do I have to do sequentially? What should pay attention? I look forward to your suggestions. Thank you.

Passing "external id" to mixpanel

@lkramer wrote:

Hello all. We started using mixpanel recently on our main site (Wordpress) and it’s working nicely. We’d like to add some mixpanel javascript calls to our associated Discourse site as well.

For adding the mixpanel javascript we’re doing this via Discourse Admin / Customize / CSS/HTML and putting javascript before the closing head tag.

This works great for simple mixpanel calls like this:

<script type="text/javascript">
mixpanel.track("Page View", {
    "page name" : document.title,
    "url" : window.location.pathname,
    "page type" : "Forum",
    "custom referrer tracking": document.referrer
});
</script>

But we also need to be able to pull the current user’s “external id” (that’s the id of the user in Wordpress which is stored in Discourse via the sso code) and pass that to mixpanel. So, the code for this would look something like:

<script type="text/javascript">
grab the external id via the api and store it in a variable $external_id
mixpanel.identify($external_id);
</script>

How can we do this? Thanks!

Admin actions should use server locale

In my profile I’ve configured German as my locale. However, when I split a topic it should post with the server’s locale (English in this case) instead of using mine.

Other moderator and admin actions have probably the same problem.

Request - add CSS class containing tag group

I’d like to be able to style all tags within a certain tag group. It would be really handy if everywhere the tag-X CSS class exists, we could also have tag-group-X (where the tag belongs to a group.

In my local forum, I have tags for each road, all belonging to a group called “roads” - I’d like to be able to style all road tags, and avoid having to edit my CSS every time I add a new road tag.

Finding points for decorateWidget

Hi! How can I find the places where I can point my decorateWidget? I mean, I have the code api.decorateWidget('header-icons:before' etc. (for example), but how can I find other places such as header-icons:before where I can use the decorateWidget?

(I’m trying to find out how I could make another hamburger-menu, and I’m looking for the point to use.)
