Composer hyperlink modal is strange and fragile

@awesomerobot wrote:

Is there any reason that we’re not using the full-page “Add an image or file” modal for adding links in the composer? The in-composer link modal is a bit odd/fragile. It’s not really responsive at all, and because of this it’s also easy to break with custom styling (if the box is a little taller due to font-sizes/padding, it can be rendered unusable). The full-page modals don’t have any of these issues.

For example, if I resize the composer:

Or if I resize my viewport:

Get ruby-bbcode-to-md to ignore [quote]

@pfaffman wrote:

I’m doing some work on the xenforo importer and have modified it so that it converts the BBcode [quote] tags into Discourse [quote="username,post:<post_number>, topic:<topic_id>] tags, but ruby-bbcode-to-md breaks it since it doesn’t know how awesome those [quote]s are.

My solution has mostly been to just not use @neil’s ruby-bbcode-to-md (GitHub - nlalonde/ruby-bbcode-to-md: Convert BBCode to Markdown.) and just piecemeal replace tags in the importer. This seems sucky (but I think it’s good enough)

Should I fork the library and try to get it to ignore those quotes? Should there be a way to get the library to know to ignore those? (Seems like a regex nightmare to me).

Topic timer "later today" broken

@jomaxro wrote:

Topic timers seem to be off today. Setting a topic timer for “Later Today” (6 PM) should set a timer for 4 hours. It looks good when being set, but after the timer is set for 9 hours, or 11 PM. @sam is this what you were looking at yesterday in regards to “last day of the month”? @joffreyjaffeux is this related to select-kit?

Edit: This does not just affect later today. Even manually setting a topic timer is off. In my case it’s adding 5 hours, so setting a topic timer for Dec 1, 12:45 PM ends up being set for Dec 1, 5:45 PM. Perhaps we have an issue with local vs server time? I’m -5 UTC.

Cannot delete post that a user self deleted during 24 hour period

@jomaxro wrote:

Not sure of the history, so this may be a #feature not a bug. If a user tries to delete their post by default the post is held for 24 hours before being deleted. While the deletion is pending, a mod/admin cannot delete the post immediately, like they can if the post is not pending deletion.

User administration: "Visit this user's preferences page..." always in English

@claas wrote:

It was noticed that the text “Visit this user’s preferences page to edit their profile” does not appear in the user locale (even though the translation exists):

The text is inserted here:

The only difference is the use of the triple curly template syntax {{{ ... }}}. Could it be that the user language is not properly determined in that (unescaped) context?

:de: Geschlechtergerechte Sprache in der Deutschen Übersetzung

@claas wrote:

Das Thema Geschlechtergerechte Sprache (Wikipedia) wurde kürzlich ausgiebig besprochen:

Es wäre schön, wenn wir auch die deutsche Übersetzung geschlechtergerecht machen könnten.

Problem

In Discourse gibt es insbesondere folgende Begriffe, die bisher nicht geschlechtergerecht sind:

  • Administrator / Administratoren
  • Autor / Autoren
  • Benutzer
  • Besucher
  • Moderator / Moderatoren
  • Anführer, Anwärter, Aktivist, Verfechter usw.

Frage

Wie können wir diese Begriffe jeweils am besten geschlechtergerecht machen?

Development: undefined method 'trust_level_locked' did you mean trust_level?

@pfaffman wrote:

On my dev instance I just did an import and now when I access a topic I’m getting this error.

undefined method `trust_level_locked' for #<User:0x0055d8685b81c8>
Did you mean?  trust_level

sometimes just in the logs and sometimes it pulls up the Rails error console (or whatever it’s called).

It looks like some mismatch between versions. I’ve done a db:migrate and bundle install, but I’m still getting the error.

I guess I’ll back up to a new database and see what happens from there, or maybe there’s something “obvious” that I’m missing.

Edit: I did a git pull upstream master, bundle install, and migrated and I’m back in business.

Disabling Google Analytics while embedding discourse as comments

@Quintin_Par wrote:

After adding discourse as the commenting solution my page views have increased dramatically while unique users remained more or less the same.

I suspect GA is called twice. This issue is briefly discussed here.


Are others facing the same issue?

I don’t want to disable GA globally because the forum gets referral traffic outside of my blog.

I’m setting our Discourse site up and would like to test OAuth logins without having to create a bunch of users. Is there a way I can add an OAuth login to my email/password account? I don’t see anything in the user preferences screen or in the admin.

Staff flag summary on user profile has poor contrast

The flag count when viewing the user summar has poor contrast. It appears that flagged posts and deleted posts are treated differently due to being links - but they’re very hard to read.

Beginners Guide to Install Discourse on Windows 10 for Development

@vinothkannans wrote:

So you want to set up development environment for Discourse on Windows 10? You can do it easily using Windows Subsystem for Linux feature. It is faster too :star_struck:.

This setup needs Windows 10 Anniversary Update. We’ll assume that you already installed Windows Subsystem for Linux (Ubuntu) on your Windows 10 system. Let’s begin!

Initially follow the steps from the topic Beginners Guide to Install Discourse on Ubuntu for Development until the step Clone Discourse.

Before setting up the database you have to start PostgreSQL service & Redis server manually using following commands

sudo service postgresql start
redis-server --daemonize yes

Then go through the remaining steps.

Now your development environment is almost ready. The only problem is every time when you open Ubuntu on Windows you have to start PostgreSQL service & Redis server manually. Don’t worry we can have a work around for this by creating a custom command :wink:.

Create a new file using the command nano discourse and paste the content below then save and exit.

#!/bin/bash

# to start PostgreSQL
sudo service postgresql start

# to start redis server
redis-server --daemonize yes

Now modify the CHMOD using below command

chmod +x discourse

And copy the file to your bin folder

sudo cp discourse /usr/bin/

It’s done. Now whenever you open the Ubuntu bash just run the command below and start developing :+1:

I visited Google groups yesterday (don’t worry Discourse, I still love you), and I was stunned by how much better and easier to use Discourse is. Actually, I rarely visit communities not based on Discourse, so maybe that was why the shock was so strong, but still, “Yay Discourse!”

How did you decide to make Discourse this way?

@oiclid wrote:

When designing and building Discourse, how did you guys decide on what features to add or not add? Did you read any studies about online communities? Did you just add/not add features based on what you liked? Essentially, was it some sort of scientific process, or did you decide to build something you wanted for the world?

Non-related question: Do they teach Internet Anthropology in schools? :thinking:

Problems after updating docker

@luisrock wrote:

Hi. Newbie here. I have Discourse installed and running on a digital ocean droplet. Today I went for an upgrade. I saw at the upgrade page that the only button enabled was the one to upgrade Docker. I thought: “well, maybe I need to upgrade docker first in order to be able to upgrade Discourse itself after”.

So I clicked the button and Docker was succesfuly upgraded. Then I returned to the Discourse upgrade page, just to see the following message:

<html><head></head><body>
<h2>You are running an old version of the Discourse image.</h2>
<p>
Upgrades via the web UI are disabled until you run the latest image.
</p>
<p>
To do so log in to your server using SSH and run:
</p>

<pre>
cd /var/discourse
git pull
./launcher rebuild app
</pre>
<p>
<a href='https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-do-i-update-my-docker-image-to-latest/23325'>More info on our support site</a>
</p>
</body>
</html>

Well, I’ve SSH the server, but it is asking me to provide informations for install Discourse, WHICH IS ALREADY INSTALLED AND RUNNING!

My knowledge stops here. Can anyone help me?
