Hi,
I’ve added a censor regex for email and phone numbers, but it censors postings by admins as well. If we’d like to direct people to a support address, we can’t do it. Is there any way to turn this off for admins? I could not find settings for this.
Thanks!

I’m trying to use masonry in combination with the topic list previews plugin to create a grid topic list like so:
When new items are added to a masonry grid or the topic-list in this case the current items need to be “reshuffled” and resized in some sense so that everything fits.
Masonry handles that with a native function or
.layout()which recalculates the grid and arranges the items when called.In order to make masonry aware of new items or topics being added to the topic list, I would like to trigger
.layout()when this is clicked:So here’s the question.
Is there a native Discourse event that fires when the the link to reload the topic list is clicked that I can bind masonry to?

Basically the
ENVdoesn’t contain the variables and values from.envwhen running rake tasks, I noticed that becauserake admin:creategave me a different password length requirement when creating an admin (e.g. 10 vs 15 characters).I’m pretty sure there are other bugs related to having

Greetings all!
I’m a new Discourse administrator, so I apologize in advance if this is an easy question. But, I’ve looked all over through the user Preferences pages and admin console but haven’t been able to find what I’m looking for.
Basically, I have a user who says that he’s getting an email notification for every new thread posted anywhere in the forums. What this user wants to do is temporarily stop ALL emails coming their way while they are away from their computer for a couple of weeks, then re-enable emails after they return.
I haven’t been able to find a place where emails can be temporarily disabled for a user - either through a setting that the user selects OR a place within the Admin pages that I can set. Ideally, I’d love for each user to be able to control this themselves.
Am I missing something obvious?

When you have a new topic draft in progress, it opens automatically when you go to the main topic list page. I’ve been annoyed about this in the past, but recently, it’s been getting in my way more and more. I realize the current design is intended to allow me to browse within a single tab while writing a topic, but I still often find it helpful to have multiple tabs open, personally.
For example, I always run into this issue is when I am writing up a weekly newsletter because it’s helpful to have multiple tabs open for the different topics I quote or reference while I’m writing the topic.
Here’s a few illustrations of the issues I face:
Figure 1
- Minimize new topic composer
- Go to another topic
- Go back to the topic list page
- New topic un-minimizes… and for some reason asks me whether I want to abandon my post
Why would you think I want to do that?
Figure 2
- Open new topic in another tab (no minimized composer is shown, great!)
- Go back to topic list
- New topic composer opens in yo’ face
Hey! I’m just trying to browse around the topics here, don’t need to see this composer right no, thank you very much.
Figure 3
Continuing from figure 2… OK, no big deal that the composer opens in my face, I guess, cuz I can just minimize it right? Then I can just continue browsing the site like I want to.
Well, now I’m back in the same situation as figure 1:
Figure 4
Alright, I’m kinda tired of minimizing this thing since it just keeps re-opening anyway…
- Continue writing a bunch of paragraphs for my topic in tab 1
- Go back to tab two to keep browsing
- Accidentally type a character in the composer of tab 2
- Wait… where are my paragraphs? Uh oh…
- Open a new tab and see that the composer has saved from tab 2 instead of tab 1
- Go back to tab 1 and see my paragraphs… phew… let’s not close this tab!
Recommendations
- When you browse to the topic list, only open the composer in the minimized state.
- When the composer is un-minimized, load the draft from the server.
- This will make it less annoying if I’m just trying to browse.
- I will be less likely to accidentally type into the wrong copy of the composer.
- Changes made in one tab will update in the other when I un-minimize it.
There will still be a risk that I un-minimize the composer in two tabs and they get out of sync, but the risk will be much smaller.
But recommendation #1 alone would solve much of my problem if that’s an easier place to start making changes…

Discourse 1.9 stable + iPhone SE
Trying to suspend a user and tapping on the date picker does nothing. I do not know if it goes off-screen or what, since there is nothing on the UI.
Overall this is a bad change and UX regression over the beautifully simple old UI where the moderator would simply enter the number of days. Multiple taps needed to get it done and a calendar style picker (which I dont see) is not a good UI for mobile. The web is mobile first and in many occasions a moderator needs to suspend a user quickly, using the device immediately available.

While studying basic statistics of various communities for a chapter in my book, I made a discovery: healthy and active communities may demonstrate very different metric results. So my conclusion so far is that you should not rely on basic activity stats to measure healthiness of an online community.
I calculated activity per active users in last month:
Topics created per user vary from 0.07 to 0.55 – this makes a huge difference, i.e. 7 new topics vs 55 new topics per 100 active users per month.
Messages created per user vary from 1 to 30, i.e. 0.1k vs 3k new messages per 100 active users per month.
Communities examined are those in different industries, in 4 different languages (English, Spanish, Russian, Ukrainian), and spanning from 1k to 1.5M registered users.
Also, I noticed that the percentage of registered users which get active in last month vary as well: from 0.3% to ~50%.
Sharing this in case it can be useful to someone.
P.S. Of course the Discourse team has a greater insight based on the anonymous statistics they collect from Discourse instances. Yet it looks like analysing 10-20 random communities already does say that activity metrics are nowhere near being signs of community healthiness.

Yes, I also realized that showing the category page by default might provide better orientation for new users and changed my homepage.
When read @HAWK’s statement, I’m wondering: if that is indeed a general “rule”, then wouldn’t it make sense to set the category page as default homepage for new forums?
Disclaimer: I’m assuming that there is a default homepage. I don’t remember whether this is something you are asked to specific in the setup process, but even if it is, there’ d seem to be something that pushed me towards choosing “Latest” as my homepage. (As a side note: it is also somewhat difficult to find how to change the homepage)
