Limit when TL3s mark topics solved. Is limit configurable?

Our TL3s are helping to clean up our Community by participating in a challenge to mark old topics as solved, when applicable.

They are hitting a limit when they mark 20 topics solved within an hour. Is this limit configurable? I’d like to set it to something higher or disable it during the challenge, but cannot find the setting.

Option not to pull hotlinked images in PM topics

One of the possible means to reduce storage consumed by uploads is to not pull hotlinked images in private messages.

Is such a configuration option possible?

Remove images from PMs that have been inactive for >1 year

What would be the correct way to remove all images from all PM topics with no activity for e.g. 1+ years. I’d like to do so as a means to reduce storage occupied by uploads.

By making so in a “correct way” I mean in such a way that the images will be then automatically removed / cleaned up as not used ones (orphan ones).

Hi all,

Let me start by wishing you guys an happy new year 2018 :smiley::smiley:

One of my users asked me if it’s possible to display the categories/sub-categories full name. Currently it seems names are truncated after the 14 characters.

It makes the UEX slightly confusing.

Thx

Pros and cons of a complimentary marketplace / e-commerce website; pricing strategies

0

@meglio wrote:

So, here is the dilemma.

Our community have been live for 3 years now. It’s all about producing milk, making cheese and so on.

We have a marketplace on our forum that’s free for everyone: people sell animals and milk products actively. This brings a lot of people to the forum, but the sales are mostly between each others, i.e. community members sell to community members.

Our idea is to launch a complimentary marketplace website for our community members to sell home-made cheese. Here are the key differences:

  • it will target buyers outside of the community
  • it’s strictly specialised on cheese only (our community members make a lot of it)

We wanna brand it separately, under a separate domain and unrelated to the main community website – that’s because buyers usually have no interest in goat keeper and cheese maker communities per se.

In the same time, for those wanting to learn making cheese or expand their range, we’ll give links to the related topics / categories on our Discourse website.

Does this idea sound sane?

Another thing is pricing strategy. Because we’ll sell to our members, i.e. we have some loyalty already, should we proceed to paid accounts, or give free trial, or make it free for some period of time?

I’m a complete noob in pricing strategies and I realise the best would be to try. However, there should be some caveats and some experience out there to sell things to community members. Please share your thoughts.

1GB backup size, db only and uploads excluded; any cleanup to apply before making a backup? Any data to exclude?

0

@meglio wrote:

So, making a db-only backup ended up with an 1GB gzipped file, wow! Looks unrealistic for a forum with just a few thousand topics.

Are there any tables that make little to no value in backups and can be ignored? If so, should we add a setting to include/exclude data from those tables in backups?

Moving a 1GB file over the network can be a slow thing. Backing up logs and some other data might be optional and not critical.

Thoughts?

Suggestion regarding the box-shadow of the Dark Theme composer

@bob77707 wrote:

This could just be an individual taste situation, but I noticed that the composer has a “white glow” when using the Dark Theme. It’s especially apparent when hiding the preview in the composer. I changed mine to a darker shadow and liked the result. Below is a comparison:

Default

Modified

Here’s the change I made to the Dark Theme Desktop CSS:

div#reply-control {
   box-shadow: 0 -2px 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 1);
}

This is a super nit-picky thing, but on the off chance anyone else felt the same way, I thought I’d share my solution :slightly_smiling_face:

Brand assets for Discourse?

Hello Discourse,

I’m in the process of re-decking out my laptop with stickers the way all of the cool dev kids are doing these days. And I threw together the following hex sticker for Discourse:

Which looks great! Except… I couldn’t quite find a large enough discourse logo on the web (I believe that one’s taken from the 3x header image on this site), which means it’s ever-so-slightly blurry up close.

I know folks like Slack and Facebook have official assets and brand guidelines for things like this; I wonder what the chances would be for Discourse to offer a folder of hi-res / svg logos, and/or guidelines for appropriate ways to represent the Discourse brand online and elsewhere.

(PS, these are one-off stickers for personal use; I’m not planning on selling them or presenting myself or anyone else as associated with Discourse in any way)

(PPS, Discourse should have official stickers. Preferably hex-shaped. :slight_smile: )

Hi there,

firstly Happy New Year everyone!

I’ve implemented Discourse on my application (an educational finance community) but i’m not happy yet with the outcome. I’m using another domain different from my one but i’d like to use something like embedded on my blog and when an user access /forum it could be loaded my blog page with discourse on it.

There’s an example of what i want to: Digital Nomad Forum

Maybe nomadlist guys are using iframe?

Thanks in advance!

Abbr double line dotted

Example:

The WHO was founded in 1948.

I see double lines in Firefox 57, Opera 49 / Chrome 62. Internet Explorer / Edge is not affected.


Where find line dotted:


       /* from normalize.scss */

abbr[title] {
    border-bottom: 1px dotted;
}



       /* from browser default stylesheet (user agent stylesheet) */

abbr[title], acronym[title] {
    text-decoration: underline dotted;
}

Maybe disable default css in abbr element (text-decoration: none !important) for better look.

I have a topic post with inline images like this: ![image|228x500](upload://kbLow7AtnLyME.png) and they appear properly in preview but once posted, they display at full width, cutting off the bottom of the images. Is there a problem with the image code or is this a setting in Discourse?

Removing links from older active user

@nomnom wrote:

We had a very active user post a lot of links in our forum under some “informational” posts over a long time period. Then when I looked closer at the posts/links he made I found some of them were malware links according to VirusTotal and other malware URL monitoring sites.

Now I want to unlink all his posts. What’s the fastest way to do that without having to go to all his posts one by one and manually unlink his URLs?

He is an older user so it appears I can’t delete his account?

Thanks for your help.

Mobile Descriptions or Mobile Responsive Image

Mobile Descriptions or Mobile Responsive Image

We have recently added images to our category view in hopes of improving our visitor experience on both desktop and mobile versions.

The mobile version yields a “trapped” white space to the right of the image. On the desktop version, this area shows the description.

Is there a way to:

  • Make sure the description appears to the right of the image on mobile?
  • Or can we make the image responsive so that it fills the entire width of the mobile view?

Anything but a blank or trapped white space next to the image would be best.

See Sample Screen Shot Below:

How to create a wiki post in hosted Discourse

@anil1 wrote:

We have a hosted Discourse running at discuss.ocaml.org, and are currently trying to get wiki posts working in order to maintain an FAQ area.

However, none of us can actually figure out how to get the “make topic a wiki” option available despite going through older posts here on the subject. I am an admin with full moderator rights, and the trust levels seem right, but the option simply doesn’t appear. Is there some configuration or plugin required to activate wiki post functionality in the hosted instances?

For instance, this post has no option in the wrench:
