It’s impossible to quote a topic that is closed. Pressing the quote button will correctly create a new topic with the usual “continuing discussion from…” notice but the quote is missing. Trying a second time to insert it will trigger the “Sure you want to abandon your post?” question.
Trying to quote from a closed topic in a reply to another topic will destroy that reply. From memory, what I did was: reply to a post in a topic (by quoting it), write something, navigate to a closed topic, select text, hit" quote", (this will bring a new topic without the quote as described above), navigate back to the topic you are replying to and your reply will be gone (if you resume the message, it will be the one from the closed topic). Somehow (page reload?) the draft did reappear but I was unable to submit it because it complained that the title cannot be empty and changing the title in a reply is obviously not possible. This was here on meta. I can try and provide more details if necessary when I have more time later.

Configure Embedding
I created a footer with 5 icons for mobile version of my site (not desktop version).
There is a white line below the footer icons - when tested on a test-site.
But when I tested on a brand new test site (which I have never used before) - everything looks good.
So, I’m wondering what is causing this.
I have 2 test sites.
One test site - which I have been using for quite some time now. It had plugins etc installed. But to test my newly designed footer, I removed all the plugins, etc. and made it exactly like a new site.
(the footer doesn’t work well on this test site. There is a white-line below the footer in this test site)
And the other test site - is a brand new one which I have never used before for anything.
(the footer works well on this test site)
How can we embed an Instagram video directly in a post?
When I copy/paste the Instagram embeded code I get a link which leads to the video page but I’d like to get the video directly in the post. Would it be possible?
We have enabled private messages in our install , but have set the min trust required to level 3. However level 1 and 2 users have access to PM and can send and receive them.
On multiple occasions on our forum, we’ve had someone post something that has already been addressed/answered, and another user responds to them. For instance:
“You can re-open tabs on Chrome by pressing Ctrl+Shift+T”
-> “OP already said this was incognito and wouldn’t work”
When the first user deletes their post to clean up the thread, after 24 hours the second user’s post looks weird. Ideally they’d withdraw their post as well since it is no longer relevant, but they never know the prior post was deleted. If users received an automated notification whenever a post they replied to is withdrawn or deleted, they could act on their own post.
I’m not sure whether on withdrawl/deletion is preferable – withdrawn would allow for chains to be cleaned up more quickly, but withdrawls can also be reversed. I could maliciously withdraw my controversial post, get someone to withdraw their reply to me, and then reinstate my own post now free of criticism. Is this a legitimate concern? Would we need to notify when posts are reinstated as well?
Here’s is one interesting question, which seems a bit controversial to me.
Do I need to aggressively interlink my own content?
I’ve been noticing that people very often miss content related to what they read.
I know that the platform embeds a lot of links everywhere: at the bottom of a topic, in the “related topics” area, and in the beginning of a topic, listing other topics which links to it. However, it seems that people often miss / ignore those links.
The question is, should we invest any time in building links to our own content from our own content, just like wikipedia does?
Anyone has experience with interlinking? Please share your practice and observations.
Topics under /tags/ navigation (when you click on a tag to show all posts that share that tag) have a different html structure when compared to the homepage topic list or /c/ topic list (when you click on a category to show all posts under that category).
On the homepage (and every other page except /tags/)
The post are inside a div with the id #list-area, the structure is #list-area > table > tbody > posts
On /tags/ pages, the posts are inside a <footer> element that’s a child of the #list-area. The structure is #list-area > footer > table > tbody > posts
@anguspointed out that this is a part of the core Discourse templates. He also linked to the specific template for rendering /tags/ pages. Here is the link:
On a vanilla instance with a new user, start to compose your first message.
The education.new_topic composer message will appear. Dismiss it.
Write until the draft process is triggered and the draft saves.
Refresh the page. The composer will re-open with your draft.
An exception will be thrown. _findMessages attempts to add the welcome message to queuedForTyping, which is null at the time it is assigned.
The issue is with the sequence of reseting queuedForTyping and initialising the async find for composer messages, see the console.log in the screenshot.
One simple fix is to move the queuedForTyping assignment inside the then block of the composer-messages lookup, however I think there’s still race conditions with that solution. Nevertheless, that’s all I have time for right now…
Let’s call conference a Category associated with a Group.
A conference has a home page, presenting the conference purpose and possibly inviting users to join, according to the group’s credentials, as in the group’s page. Technically, this home page could be the group’s home page, without the members list.
The conference scheme enables large communities to maintain opt-in work groups or special interest sections, or different language sections without overwhelming all users with notifications and a large number of topics.
This can be implemented as a plugin which I’m interested in programming. I’m proposing this to the community to see if there is traction, and if other people would like to participate. I suppose most of the functionality is already present, and it’s a matter of fixing the pipes to adapt the UI. This “category opt-in” scheme mostly moves the focus from topics to categories.
This scheme has been used in other online forums, e.g., Howard Rheingold’s Brainstorms, where hundreds of users exchange daily, rendering the contents quite overwhelming when you try to follow everything – hint: you can’t. As thousands of posts accumulate in your reading list, you’re very happy to be able to focus on some parts of the community rather than playing catch-up or muting the avalanche of new categories and topics.
