Different lanugae for control pannel than puplic interface

@Hilmi_Al-Kindy wrote:

Hi,

I just setup my new discourse forum and I have set up an Arabic language forum. I would really like the control panel to be in English Language as technical items are far easier to understand in English. I can’t seem to find a way to change the control panel language separately from the websites language.

I really appreciate some help with this item.

P.S. I don’t know if this makes any difference to how it is configured, but I am using the hosted service (monthly subscription)

Would it be possible to implement a feature to auto-tag all topics in certain categories with “unsolved” if the topic got no reply, but is still open after e.g. 4 days?

Hi, I want to create an in-line link for the words “start a new discussion” (and so on). When a member clicks on the link, they will have a new topic opened and a pre-selected category in our community.
1 - Is this possible?
2 - What are the ‘rules’ for configuring that link so it opens for the member a new topic with a pre-selected category?

Hope you can help.

I followed the Discourse guide online.

How to change the style of a Wiki post

@Dax wrote:

A quick guide to change the style of your wiki posts:

Background:

.wiki .topic-body {
  background-color: #dcffdc; /*light green*/
}

If you want you can also change the font used or the size of the text, but I do not recommend it, e.g.:

.wiki .topic-body p {
    font-size: 18px;
}

Moved topics to new category via ruby console, topic counts wrong on old category

@jerdog wrote:

I did a mass move yesterday via the ruby console like was mentioned here (Bulk move many topics from one category to another) and it worked - however topic counts didn’t update. I have 0 topics in the old category, but it still says the old number.

For kicks and grins I did launcher rebuild app but that didn’t reset the counts.

Anything I am missing here? Is there a process that I should have kicked off to re-index?

Where would I generate a template for all topics?

@McBlu wrote:

In discourse, there is a cool function called the topic template which you input under each category so when a person goes to post in a category the topic template comes up to guide the person.

I noticed that when you go to generate a post but haven’t picked which category to assign the new post to, the topic template, as you would expect, doesn’t come up.

Where might I go to generate a template that comes up whenever you generate a topic, even when the category hasn’t yet been selected? I am thinking it would likely be found under customize–>text content…?

Thanks.

Mobile-first (or "mobile only")

0

@mfan wrote:

I’m working on a site that uses a mobile-first design. This means starting from the smallest mobile experience, and scaling up. Putting aside the merits of this approach vs the opposite (“responsive”), I’m wondering what the best way to accomplish this in Discourse is.

In the Discourse admin, there’s a checkbox to disable mobile themes:

image

I’m wondering if there’s a way to do the opposite: to “disable” the desktop theme. In other words, having the users always experience the mobile version, regardless of whether they are on desktop or mobile.

What would be the best way to accomplish this sort of approach, if I wanted to use the current Discourse mobile experience as my basis for a new theme? Would I just take the mobile templates, and use them as the “desktop” templates of a new theme?

Alternatively, is there an admin option to always serve the mobile version? Or could this be accomplished via plugin?

Using TarWriter to stream backup

0
0

@riking wrote:

While doing research, I found that this class is already available in Discourse via require 'rubygems/package': Class: Gem::Package::TarWriter (Ruby 2.0.0)

Using this should allow Discourse to take backups without having more than double the required disk space available, by streaming the entire archive to disk through an in-process tar and an in-process gzip.

Usage should look like the following:

destination = File.open(target_filename, "wb")
gz_stream = Zlib::GzipWriter.new(destination, 5)
@tar_writer = Gem::Package::TarWriter.new(gz_stream)

log "Archiving data dump..."
FileUtils.cd(File.dirname(@dump_filename)) do
  @tar_writer.add_file "dump.sql.gz", 0644 do |tf|
    File.open(@dump_filename) do |df|
      IO.copy_stream(df, tf)
    end
  end
end

rel_directory = File.join(Rails.root, "public")
upload_directory = File.join(rel_directory, "uploads", @current_db)
log "Archiving uploads..."

last_progress = Time.now
files_since_progress = 0

Dir[File.join(upload_directory, "**/*")].each do |file|
  stat = File.stat(file)
  relative = file.delete_prefix(rel_directory)
  if stat.directory?
    @tar_writer.mkdir relative, stat.mode
  else
    files_since_progress += 1
    if files_since_progress > 100 or (last_progress < 15.seconds.ago)
      log "Archiving #{file}"
      files_since_progress = 0
      last_progress = Time.now
    end
    @tar_writer.add_file relative, stat.mode do |tf|
      File.open(file, "rb") { |df| IO.copy_stream(df, tf) }
    end
  end
end

log "Finishing up archive..."
@tar_writer.close
gz_stream.close
destination.close

remove_tmp_directory

The above code does not have:

  • proper error reporting
  • progress indicators

Am I missing something? Does the solved plugin not trigger a webhook?

Missing "about me" in Profile

@JennPatel wrote:

Hi there. I looked to see if anyone else raised this question but didn’t find anything similar - if I’m repeating a question though, my apologies.

I’m new to Discourse but an admin. I have a user whose “about me” in her profile is filled out from her end, and can be seen when you visit her account, but cannot be seen from what I’ll call the “preview” - the popup that comes up when you click on her name/avatar while you’re still in another post, it looks like her “about me” is blank.

Here’s the “about me” that is filled out and can be seen when you go to her account:

And here it is showing up as blank when I click on her name from another post (in the preview/pop up version) -

Any ideas on what the issue might be here? I checked to see if there were any privacy settings checked and there don’t appear to be.

I am trying to create a vary basic .rb plugin (based on the now obsolete in chrome) discourse-allowallwhich will merge the CSP header to the default ones but cant get it to work.

The below does not seem to do it.

Rails.application.config.action_dispatch.default_headers.merge!({'Content-Security-Policy' => "frame-ancestors 'http://mylocal.com.localhost'"})

I literally have 0 experience with ruby so need to know:

  1. If thats possible
  2. The correct syntax for defining the above header and merging it with the default ones

End goal is to make my discourse site frameable by 2 specific domains

Group activity page has no name or title for the posters

Hey there!

I’m just in the final stages of pimping out our new discourse forum.

On our group activity page, though, I noted that we do not have any information on ‘who’ has made the posts, which would be super useful (ideally the username and their title would be displayed)

An example can be seen right here in the official discourse board:

can anyone point me to where I can enable this, or what CSS / HTML I need to edit to make this happen?

Here’s how our page looks for reference:

Huge thanks.

Displaying sub-categories in boxes - only works for one user, me?

Continuing the discussion from Displaying sub-categories in boxes:

the boxes are not displaying for anyone but me. I don’t understand it - everyone else just sees the regular category view with the latest topics.

I am stuck on this one - anyone have any ideas? on my site, to replicate:

  • create category and give moderators access to it. settings are as in screenshot below.
  • create sub-categories within that category and give moderators access to it
  • go to the category and see pretty boxes with featured links above topic list - yay! :sunny:
  • create test account, give moderator privileges,
  • use test account to go to category and see topics but no pretty boxes - boo! :ghost:
