Hi,
I just tried editing a message here on Meta but kept getting the ‘Your post contains words that aren’t allowed’ warning. As it doesn’t show WHICH words, I couldn’t figure out what I was doing wrong and had to ask a team member for help. How about adding a little more information here?

Hey there, I used Discourse briefly for another project and am excited to use it on a new project.
I’d like to present the same content to two different communities - technical and non-technical. What’s the simplest thing that could possibly work? SSO or Social Logins would split the content, so wouldn’t work.
It would be great if I could use the same accounts, content, etc. but have these two views show up differently on two different urls:
technical.example.comandnontechnical.example.comOn
technical.example.comall the technical categories would be at the root, with the nontechnical categories in a “nontechnical” top level category.http nginx javascript nontechnical - sales - marketingsales marketing technical - http - nginx - javascriptThe breadcrumbs and search could be the same on each site. It’s important that the first experience be appropriate to the user’s context.
Is it possible to customize the home page as a plugin?
Maybe I’m making this too hard. I haven’t used Discourse except for really basic things.Have you solved a similar problem? Any suggestions?
Thank you!
Mike

Can someone explain to me how to spin up additional workers to clean up a sidekiq queue, please?
I have found an old topic but it does not work with current discourse distribution.

Is it possible to change the creation date of topics as admin?
The reason I ask this is that create date is one of the criteria you can sort posts by and I am thinking I could use create date as a workaround for not being able to sort my topics in chron order.
From a perusal of posts, it looks like there is a niche demand for sorting in chron order of some sort for categories that don’t fit the traditional discussion topics formula where a search for key words works best. Specialty forums that cater to a particular niche, for example, might want to post resource/wiki type categories that provide useful information for their members that aren’t necessarily discussed but just gone to for information as part of the services they uniquely provide. Often such resources can be sorted in chron order and members are used to that in other settings. It could be date-sorted topics for archived videos of local council meetings (my case) or user manuals for model cars. That sort of thing.
I am considering making a feature request for this.

Hey there, a quick followup to this solution.
I’d like to have the same Discourse instance on two different domains, so I can present info in context. E.g. multiple projects.
Each subdomain would:
- have all the content
- a vanity subdomain for the project
- some javascript would forward to that project’s category if arriving at /
I tried this with a 2nd DNS A record, but the 2nd domain did a redirect to the 1st domain, then ran my JS - so neither the vanity subdomain or the forward worked.
Is there a way to get one Discourse install to respond to multiple domain names?
Does this mess up S3 assets and CDN?
Any other issues with this?Thanks!

If you’re able to work on this soon, we’d love to hear about how you’d approach building a #theme for the following. Please reply here with your interest and background, and we can continue the conversation via email after exchanging contact info via PM or similar.
We generally pay $100/hour for efficient and focused development work.
Thanks.
Bio Book in Discourse
A theme to update the /users view to create the bio book in our upcoming Discourse install
Overview
We’d like to create a new “Bio Book” view in Discourse that lists all the users and returns their user cards. We know it’s possible to view a user’s card by clicking on their name in the /users view, but what we’d like is something that’s less focused on a user’s stats, and more focused on who they are at a glance.
Probably includes a pull request to Discourse asking to improve the server API to support this work.
Mockup
Mobile view:
![]()
Desktop view:
![]()
Functionality
We’d like the following functionality:
Drop-down filter
Remove the filter by date functionality
and replace it with filter by group name functionality populated with group names
Filter results (using the "filter by username" box), returning results from the student cards including the following fields which are not currently searchable:
Group
Real Name
Location
Bio snippet
Website
PS please forgive us for mixing the Marvel and DC universes in our mockups. It was an error.

I’m trying to get people in general

to pair on prose.Using an editor with line numbers,

makes pairing more natural and easier.Would it be feasible to have an advanced composer option to override the line break setting on a per post basis?

Ultimately, I want most of my content to be private while allowing select, unrestricted, teaser access which doesn’t require authentication while keeping my content organized.

What would you like done?
I’ve been reading up on Tags and the ability to intersect multiple tags so that you can query posts on multiple tags.
For details, please go to the following thread (I am having trouble pasting in pictures here) and see my post at the bottom of it with attached pictures.
Please let me know if this is doable. Thank you very much!
When do you need it done?
1-2 months from now
What is your budget, in $ USD that you can offer for this task?

This is a very simple theme component that replaces the metadata bar that normally displays on an expandable image with a small semitransparent expansion indicator.
Before

About
This was inspired by the discussion started here:
Installation
Follow this guide here:
Customization
You can adjust the position of the expansion hint. By default it is positioned on the bottom left. The code to achieve positioning can be found by clicking the Edit CSS/HTML button on the theme component and going to the Mobile tab. Here you will see the following CSS code:
.meta { height: 25px; width: 25px; bottom: 0; left: 0; //right: 0; //top: 0; }To change it to the top right:
.meta { height: 25px; width: 25px; //bottom: 0; //left: 0; right: 0; top: 0; }Just comment and uncomment according the the position you’d like.
Note: As of now, if this theme component gets updated, and you have changed the CSS at all, you will need to make those changes again after the update.
Please feel free to post if there are any questions, problems, or suggestions!

Hi,
I like the fact that Discourse allows me to set strong or italic text styles in replies.
What I don’t like is that it allows headers. It’s bad for readability, SEO and confuses spiders:
H1 header
H2 header
Or check out this real live example: 02.28.2018-14.41.58
So: is it possible to disable headers; so they get ignored like below example at Wordpress .org?
