Adding a billing section in the member section

I use the Memberful-Discourse integration.

I want to add a “billing” section right here :

In fact, when a user will click on billing, it will convert to the memberful account of the user. I will put a simple link to make it happen. I already have this link. I just want to know the code to add a section here.

Is it possible?

Regression in login behavior

Store a real revision for large grace period edits

@sam wrote:

I think a very awesome change would be to calculate “amount of diff” prior to deciding if an edit requires storage of a real revision or not.

If you changed 5 letters in a post, sure it can be a “grace period” edit with no revision stored. If you deleted 10 paragraphs it should never be considered a “grace period edit” and a revision should be stored.

I suggest:

grace_period_edits_max_chars_changed default to: 30

Any larger changes deserve to be tracked anyway and can be vectors for abuse, so this would be a great change on 2 levels.

  1. It protects end users from “mistake” nuking own post with a ninja edit (cause a revision will be stored)

  2. It protects the community from “bad actors” that abuse ninja edits and starts surfacing them.

Can not think of any downsides really.

Show excerpt for all topics via a theme

Continuing the discussion from Show "topic-excerpt" for all post on Latest Page:

I am interested in showing an excerpt for all topics.

The linked topic above covers the subject very well.

And @angus left a very helpful reply describing how to achieve what I’m after.

However, this is all under plugin structure.

My question is, is it possible to turn on or enable excerpts for all posts via a theme?

In other words, I would like to change:

To:

def include_excerpt?
   true
end

via a theme component.

I know that @sam mentioned this:

But figured I should ask in case things have changed since.

My use case is a modified topic list template that looks like this:

Notice how only a pinned topic would show an excerpt while I’d like all of them to do that.

Manage multiple Discourse instances from one place only

Hello everyone
If you manage multiple Discourse forums (I’m taking care of two), you often find yourself doing repetitive work: upgrading core/plugins, various settings & styling and so on. If I’d have one more forum to manage i’ll probably go nuts ! :slight_smile:

There is a way of doing this one without going on all forum admins?

Thanks!

Prevent login popup

Hey all,

In short: how do we prevent the “Log In” button from creating a popup window?

We disabled local accounts on our Discourse instance, and only allow login with our own OAuth2 server. Right now when I click on “Log In”, a popup is created to show the OAuth2 login of our server. This popup is unnecessary, as the OAuth2 process works fine when running in the same window. Furthermore, the popup is too small and has its scrollbar removed. In my humble opinion, those are three things that shouldn’t happen:

  1. Create an unnecessary popup.
  2. Make it too small.
  3. Don’t allow people to scroll.

These problems are also evident on this site (talking about meta.discourse.org here). For example, when you choose to log in with a Github account, the popup is so small that the “Sign In” button is not visible and even the scrollbar has been actively removed from it.

The “Log in” button at Mozilla’s Discourse does not show a popup, and behaves the way I’d like our own install to behave. How do I do that? Is this a setting I overlooked? Is this done via a plugin?

Cheers,
Sybren

How can I change the link of the signup CTA? Because I have SSO active and it currently does like a “sign in” button instead of a “sign up”. So I want to change the link with my real sign up link of Memberful.

Markdown base62 image name vs. full path?

Hi,

An image uploaded through pasting has a markdown tagged address :

![image|302x124](upload://
1UTkm8uk9wWYvKeuEgiTXMJIuTG.jpg)

which seems to use the shorter base62 filename as discussed here.

But, using the base62 in a direct link does not work. Should it?

https://forum.imade3d.com/uploads/default/original/1X/
1UTkm8uk9wWYvKeuEgiTXMJIuTG.jpg

The absolute image path still seems to be the old hex encoding, as this does work:

https://forum.imade3d.com/uploads/default/original/1X/
0d708ae22e111a1046c958d7049e31881cc21ca4.jpg

How can I reconcile the two? How does this work?
Is there any setting to switch back to using the hex encoding in the md tags?

I like to cross-post images from my discourse forum on my website, and this makes it difficult to get the cross-postable URLs.

Thanks!

Check_username api endpoint seems to not work correctly

when we want to sinup in discourse and write a username, if the username is taken, discourse suggest for another username. I wanted to use this feature in my apis and tracked down the api call made by discourse using this topic.

It seems I should do somthing like the following, however when I test it with postman, I dont get the correct response:

https://myforum.com/u/check_username?api_key=xxxx&api_username=yyyy&username=zzzz&email=a@b.c

This is also the php code I wrote for this:

$discourse_url = 'https://myforum.com/';
$api_user = 'xxxx';
$api_key = 'yyyy';
$username = 'zzz';
$email = 'a@b.c'
$data = array(  'api_key'=>$api_key,  'api_username'=>$api_user,  'username'=>$username, 'email'=>$email);
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $discourse_url."u/check_username?".http_build_query($data));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, 1);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
echo $response;

Upgrade has broken layout of category view

@john-lynch wrote:

I run a small forum for friends to hang out and discuss stuff. This morning I upgraded Discourse to the latest, and now the category rendering on the main discourse page is busted. I had added a banner image to each category. Previously, the banner would be displayed underneath the category title. Now it looks like this:

layout%20change

Instead of the banner image floating nicely underneath the title, it’s not mashed over to the side. You can also see that the post counts are running into the latest topics.

As best as I can tell (and I am by no means a CSS/layout expert, so I may very well be mistaken), this appears to be related to the work done on these issues:

If I use Chrome’s developer tools to change the display for .category-list .category-title-link from flex to block, that almost seems to fix my issue:

The banner images are now below the category titles again and the post counts aren’t running into the latest topic displays. Unfortunately, the lock icons are on a new line, which is undesirable.

I’m not sure what can be done to fix this. Please advise, and thank you.

Tag restrictions on PM

@Sean_R wrote:

Now that we have tags coming to PM in Discourse Version 2.0, is there any thought around adding the ability to restrict visible/usable tags in PMs? For example, we may use tags in group inboxes to denote status (open, in progress, waiting, completed). Right now we see all of the tags.

If I were to venture an ask for this as a feature, I would say either make this capability at the Global Level (one setting for all PMs OR set this at the Group Level so that different groups have their own defined tags. This would allow more meaningful workflow options and management.

This is not an ask for right away but could be a logical addition for a future release.

QA checklist for when new versions are released?

@Jumanji wrote:

Does anybody have a QA checklist they’re willing to share, that they use when testing a new release? Our QA team created their own unofficial QA checklist back when we used vBulletin, adding as they tested or when a new plugin was installed, but Discourse does many things differently. Rather than start all over with a brand new list, perhaps you all can make this task easier for us. Crossing my fingers.

Thanks in advance!

Letters getting cut off to the leftmost in posts

I hope none of you recognize me from my last bug report, I have a history of noticing stupid details…

I just noticed that letters are getting cut off to the leftmost in posts. At first I thought I was going crazy, but upon closer inspection it turned out I was somewhat sane.

Have a look at these two letters:

A A

Notice that the left leg of the first A is not quite as thick at the bottom as the left leg of the second? I won’t blame you if you don’t. Here’s a closeup (images captured on the forum of which I am a member):

Now, this is even more noticable if you have a theme with white text

This is so frustrating now that I know it’s there. Hopefully someone clever will be equally frustrated and have a look at it.

The rest of the letters, if you want to have a look at them
