First off, thanks for plugin.
We are using the plugin in our forum at community.AppyBuilder.com . however we keep getting violation warnings from Adsense. We don’t have control over contents that users post. Is there anyway that keyword filtering can be done before ad is displayed?
Thanks

There are many reasons why emails sent from discourse bounce, the most frequent one is probably a bad sending IP at your mail provider. Nothing can be done about this in discourse.
On the other end of the spectrum are closed email accounts (not so infrequent in academia when people move to a new usiversity for example). Much can be done by the user to fix this, obviously.
Somewhere in between these two extremes are cases where the emails get rejected based on the policy of the recipient server, which means that - depending on who controls the relevant policy, the user can potentially change that policy to make sure your emails get through (I seem to remember that on exchange servers this can be as easy as including the sending address in your address book, but I can’t find the evidence right now).
The easiest way to deal with all of those bouncing emails is probably to simply ignore them and let users figure out why they are not getting any mails from the forum. But here I’d like to discuss what kind of assistance discourse might be able to offer if you do not want to ignore those bounces where users can help improve the situation.
The basic challenge (at least on non-tech forums) is to inform the users about the problem. Currently, I’m doing this manually by sending them an email from a separate email account (using their new email address if I can find it via google). But it would be nice if discourse could help me with contacting users whose emails are bouncing.
In a way it already does so by giving me the user’s email address as a mailto-link in the Emails -> Bounces tab. But it would be nice to stay inside discourse when doing this.
So, for example, there could be a button next to each row in the bounced email list saying “contact user” or something like that. Clicking that button would bring up the discourse editor for a PM (which would allow me to use canned replies) with the only difference being that
- I can specify an alternative email address for the user which is used instead of the one saved in the user’s profile
- The email will not be sent through the usual email provider (mailgun etc) but through an ordinary email account (whose smtp server would have to be added to the site settings).

Hi All,
Experiencing a strange issue. This is for a client, so I have to be a little generic. Current Discourse version is v2.0.0.beta4 +87
I have a number of parent categories such as A, B, C, D, and E.
For category C I have about 8 subcategories. I want to change their parent to be A, so I go into the category settings. When I click the parent category box, I can see all the parent categories other than A.
Any idea why one of my categories may be missing in the parent categories box?

Hi, I am an admin of two forums for java developers with different language (
enandru). Both forums have many similar questions and usually they have exactly the same text (java code, log files, json examples etc).I’d like users from
ruforum can search both forums at once using only one search box, for instance, for the queryNullPointerException. Is it possible to achieve this?I found similar solution for Wordpress+Discourse, but how to make the same for Discourse+Discourse?

Many thanks to the Discourse team for this great product.
We were able to install Discourse in less than an hour without any previous knowledge of docker.
We were also able to customize the interface easily and integrate the comments system on our website (Money.it) in a short amount of time.
Thanks and keep it up!!!

Hello!
We have forum installed in subfolder:
https://i.materialise.com/forum/We have problem with external links in posts. When user clicks on external link, he gets redirect to URL with our main site domain with path and query string from original URL, but not to original URL.
For example:
User gets
https://i.materialise.com/watch?v=%3cvideo_id, instead of original link to Youtube:https://youtube.com/watch?v=%3cvideo_id)And this behavior reproduces for any external links. Open in new tab via context menu and mouse middle button click works well.
I did some investigation and found that on click on link, we call, for example:
https://i.materialise.com/forum/clicks/track?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Dk-r-zmItM0Qand ServiceWorker redirects us to URLhttps://i.materialise.com/watch?v=k-r-zmItM0Qwith status code 302. I spent a lot of time on this forum and didn`t find any idea what can be wrong with settings.We have many complaints from community members and I will be very appreciate for any assistance or advice how to solve this problem.
Thanks.

It would be useful if we could tag specific replies within a topic. We might make tags that make sense on a per-post basis even.
As a workaround, the Retort plugin and custom emojis does much of this, but it’s not quite the same.

What would you like done?
We would like our forum header to appear exactly as our home page header looks like on our wordpress site on desktop and mobile.When do you need it done?
We don’t have the funds and are a small group. I am getting a sense of what this costs. Maybe we can fundraise to do this.What is your budget, in $ USD that you can offer for this task?
Zero right now, but if we know what good coders in her charge we will have an idea if it is doable to hire someone.I am betting if other non-coders in here know what you all charge, they might be more likely to consider this option rather than tinkering themselves.

Everywhere else that I edited text in /admin/customize/site_texts I see the results.
But for the flagging UI, e.g. /admin/customize/site_texts/post_action_types.off_topic.description , I’m still only seeing the default text. In fact, if I search for the default text to change, it doesn’t show up in search anymore since only my edited text will show in the search. But the flagging UI is just not using my text.
This is the case for all the text content in the radio-button areas, but I tested changing the “Take Action” button text and that worked.

We can hide posts by flagging and then going to the mod UI where the notification is and agreeing with the flag. But the “Take Action” button is not resulting in a hiding of posts.
Can anyone reproduce or advise on how to debug the situation?
P.S. “Take Action” is as meaningful a button name as “Click here!” or “Do something”

When viewing a topic in a sub-category, it shows both the top-level category and the sub-category color boxes and names. There’s nothing showing the connection between them, though. They look just like tags that might just be at the same level (aside from the two-color box for the sub-category).
Is there a way to show the relationship better?
For example, Discourse to Discord Webhook shows both
pluginandextras, and they seem to be the same level, like just two tags. Nothing in that view shows that plugin is the top level category and extras is the sub-category.Something like
plugin:extrawould be good. Anything to show the relationship better…

We’ve deployed Discourse recently - generally very happy with the platform and available analytics.
The main question we have as a company based on the vast experience in community represented here is: “what does a healthy community look like?” In the numbers, and in the anec-data?
Any insights you can share on this big question would be super appreciated.

Hi all,
I’m working on cleaning up about 3000 topics that were imported from our mailman archive. We dumped them into an archive category, with the plan of cleaning up and moving into appropriate categories as time allows. I jumped right in with merging some topics (some threads came in as multiple Discourse topics) and moving them to the appropriate category.
The act of merging appears to trigger an email to all users on mailing list mode, just as if it were a new post (the date on the post is the correct, old date). I can’t really think of a reason why someone would want that.
In our test instance, we muted an entire category, and seem to be able to merge topics in that category without triggering the emails. Are there any other actions or situations that are likely to cause these old posts to appear as new, and get mailed out to all users who are receiving new posts?
Thank you!

- User flags a post
- Mod hit’s “agree” that the flag is valid
- Mod chooses “keep post”
Results (unless there’s some bug, this is what we see):
- post stays around, visible
- nobody can flag the post again
- user has a flag on their record
When would this ever make sense? Some forum where violations that deserve flagging are kept around because it’s dogmatically free-speech or something but still want to keep a record of how much someone is inappropriate? It seems weird to me. I’d think either a flag is not valid or you do want to hide the post and prompt the user to edit it.
