Disable HTTPS on Discourse Clone?

≪ Previous: Discourse appears to be broken with Postgres 10

I have an absolute newbie question here - I’m currently running a successful discourse community using Digital Ocean. I’d like to clone my discourse community on digital ocean and setup a testing server so that I can fiddle with all of the new features and settings in discourse without concerning the live service. All of that is fine, where I’m getting stuck is the SSL (and I know very very little about ssl certification).

After I clone the site, entering it’s new ip in my browser causes me to go to the primary domain, which causes me to connect to the real server, not the testing clone. Do I just need to disable HTTPS on discourse so that I can browse my cloned server without concern? If so, how would I even get there to disable it?

Apologies in advance if this question is way off target. Is there a better way for me to approach this entirely?

I’ve got the same problem from the above thread happening again since updating Discourse.

What’s happening is similar to what I said at the end of that thread.

User profile watch/track/mute options not persisted

Ahh - STOP PRESS It works! I have a feeling it might have something to do with unticking all those email settings, saving them and re-ticking them all though? That’s what I just did after about 5 new post attempts. I’m going to check this with another account… EDIT - yes, this is the way to fix users who were created in this purgatory period. Untick all email settings, save, then retick all email settings and it works again.

A new user is created with all email options ticked by default (that’s my setting on my forum) and they do not receive emails as they should.

If you untick all of those settings, save it and then re-tick them again, it works.

I’m on v1.9.0.beta12 +5.

Disable users editing their profiles?

Hi All,

I am working with a client who wants to populate user profile details via their own profile backend (they will use the Discourse API to update profile data when the respective data in their own backend changes).

As such, they want to disable the ability for users to edit their profile in Discourse, so as to avoid being out of sync. Is it possible to set a policy in Discourse that users can’t edit their profile fields?

Of course, another options is that fields can be edited in Discourse and then their profile backend is updated, but we wanted to explore the above option first.

Thanks!

Can't create GET request route

Hello,

I’m trying to create a custom API on Discourse for a plugin I’m working on.
I haven’t any problem to create a POST request, but when I try to create one with GET, it all the time returns a 404 error page.

Here is my code.
after_initialize do
    module ::MyApiComments
        class Engine < ::Rails::Engine
            engine_name "myapi_comments"
            isolate_namespace MyApiComments
        end
    end

    class MyApiComments::CommentsController < ::ApplicationController
        def get_topic_comments
            # Some stuff here
            render :json => message, :status => 200
        end
    end

    MyApiComments::Engine.routes.draw do
        get '/myapi-t/:id' => 'comments#get_topic_comments'
    end

    Discourse::Application.routes.append do
        mount ::MyApiComments::Engine, at: "/"
    end
end
When I use post '/myapi-t/:id' => 'comments#get_topic_comments', all works fine. But I absolutely need to use a GET request and I can’t understand why it doesn’t works.

(by the way, I know there is already an API route to get topic posts, but I don’t use it for good reasons :))

Thanks for your help :).

It happens here on Meta and also on my forum (just updated).

When typing @ followed by a group name, the auto complete pop up shows only username and not groups name

I’ve tried it with both moderators and admins, I do not see anything

The auto complete works if I try with custom groups if the name is composed only of one word (it works for translators but not for plugin_authors or theme_authors and so on)

Maybe the bug is related to this discussion Group long names - help give full citizenship to groups for mentions, messaging, group pages?

Strange XHR email log error

My email logs keep getting littered by this error:

TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating ‘s.getResponseHeader’)

Tracing the code back to the source, it is this:
github.com
discourse/discourse/blob/e600dca268bf9df81f6ade30f9ce0135af42e2d2/app/assets/javascripts/discourse/lib/ajax.js.es6#L58
  _trackView = false;
  // DON'T CHANGE: rack is prepending "HTTP_" in the header's name
  args.headers['Discourse-Track-View'] = "true";
}


if (pageVisible()) {
  args.headers['Discourse-Visible'] = "true";
}


args.success = (data, textStatus, xhr) => {
  if (xhr.getResponseHeader('Discourse-Readonly')) {
    Ember.run(() => Discourse.Site.currentProp('isReadOnly', true));
  }


  if (args.returnXHR) {
    data = { result: data, xhr: xhr };
  }


  Ember.run(null, resolve, data);
};
Apparently, xhr is undefined but somehow the XHR call succeeded.

User agent is all over the place, iPhone/Android/PC and so unlikely to be problem from a specific device.

I’m looking for a way to prevent double exclamation points when a user replies to messages.

In my particular case I have a super-user who has the bad habit (since 15 years) to conclude each sentence with !!

All older users know it is his way to write but new users often feel attacked by him (even if it is not his intention).
This sometimes generates bad responses from new users and I have to intervene to calm the situation.

Consider that I asked him several times to avoid !! at the end of a sentence, but his answer is that he does it unconsciously.

I know that I can use Replace a string in all posts to replace !! with a point, but this would only work on posts already published, not on those that will be published.

The only way I can think is to enter !! in watched words so that they are replaced by two black squares, but I find this method a little exaggerated.

Is there any other way?

Hi,

There’s a few things I can’t make out how to do in the later versions of the widget api. Before it was very convenient where one could just add ‘icon’, ‘label’, ‘href’ etc to for example a menu link. In particular I’d like to know how to add a font-awsome icon with the virtual-dom api. Any instructions would be nice.

I’m trying to use the Dischord API to upload user avatars. I’m testing with Postman because I couldn’t get it working with curl in PHP. With Postman I can see that the POST to the API is actually succeeding, but that the avatar is not assigned to any user. The response shows a user ID of -1, which would seem to indicate that something is going wrong in the background. Here is my Postman config

I can’t see anything obviously wrong with the way I’ve set it up, and the images are definitely getting uploaded and cropped and resized (I’ve checked that the URLs in the responses do in fact exist). If anyone has any insight into what might be going wrong I’d be grateful.

EDIT: The same response is received regardless of whether I set synchronous to true or false.

I know this use case is not supported, but even though I am currently trying to install on platform.sh, I am running into a read-only filesystem exception (trying to create a folder apparently).

I don’t really know Ruby and have no clue how to debug. Platform.sh indeed has a read-only filesystem (for security purpose), and I have to declare any writable folder as mount point. Unfortunately I couldn’t find a list of writable folders…

Here’s what I could retrieve from different implementations (docker, ansible and so on):

${my_app}/log

${my_app}/tmp

${my_app}/app/log

${my_app}/app/tmp

${my_app}/app/app/public/uploads

${my_app}/app/app/tmp

Not sure about these, or about other I could have missed, still doesn’t work though
If you can help me please do!
