Photo sizing for external images?

Our community (https://forums.maslowcnc.com) is using Discourse and I’m really liking it. However, I have run into a question I can’t find an answer to. If I want to insert a picture into a post, I can usually copy the picture and paste it into the post. The link to the local copy of the picture includes a size argument.

Sometimes, however, a picture can’t be pasted in for various reasons. In this case, one can paste a link to the picture, and it will show as if it were pasted. However, i haven’t found a way to resize those. Is there?

Templates for common staff responses

Suggestion: Allow staff to pre-define responses to common forum issues.

Background:
We tend to provide the same feedback to forum members repeatedly. eg:

  • Please name your thread descriptively as per our guidelines, located [HERE].
  • Your new topic is in the wrong category and has been moved. Our category descriptions are [HERE].
  • Your post is off-topic and has been removed.
  • Your post doesn’t comply with our [FORUM RULES]. Refer to rule [xx].
  • etc.

There’s an opportunity to allow pre-defined text responses, that are accessible to staff when:
a) Sending a PM.
b) Responding to a flag &
c) Viewing a post.

Rather than choosing to vaguely agree / disagree / ignore flags, it would be faster for staff and more informative for forum members to choose a consistent, standardised and pre-defined response, that’s specific to the issue encountered. This also means all mods / staff are using the same messaging.

This would avoid the need to type the same messages repeatedly - and avoids the need to repeatedly look up the relevant URLs to include in the response, to help the user.

This could also potentially allow statistics to be collated regarding the frequency of each response, across all staff, thereby identifying the most recurring issues.

Given that staff are the one’s who buy Discourse, making their life easier seems like a good idea. And I suspect many forum staff are currently writing the same responses repeatedly, which isn’t good use of their time.

Only show allowed users in the invite panel

currently if you press the invite button, and start to write the name of a user, the system shows a list of possible usernames to make it easier for you.

for topics which are limited to some user groups, it’d be nice if:

  1. the system gives a warning to the invitee about those who don’t have access to the topic (just the same way that one gets notified when mentioning users in topic body). currently there’s no warning for sending invitation.

    • the bad part is that the invited user also gets the invitation, and then finds out he doesn’t have access to the topic!
  2. the suggested user list be limited to those who have access to the topic.

Show private forums and topic titles only

What would you like done?
A user might not have access to a category or to read a topic, but they can see they exist. They can even see the topic titles in latest, but when they click they are told they don’t have access to that forum or topic. We want non-members to know about private content, to entice them to join, otherwise they are only seeing the tip of the iceberg. They will not be able to read the content, there will be a button to subscribe or login next to the categories listing or when they click on a topic (login or join). We would also like these topics to show in latest and top listings, with similar buttons.

When do you need it done?
As soon as possible

What is your budget, in $ USD that you can offer for this task?
$1000

I already added a sign up button in my header :

But in the login_required.welcome_message, there is only the log in button. How can I add the sign up button?

This is the code for the Sign up button :

<script type="text/discourse-plugin" version='0.8.12'>
api.decorateWidget('header-buttons:before', function (helper) {
    if (!api.getCurrentUser()) {
        let rawLabel = helper.widget.site.mobileView ? "S'inscrire" : "S'inscrire gratuitement";
        return helper.attach('link', {
            href: 'https://lepeuplier.memberful.com/checkout?plan=27167',
            rawLabel,
            className: "btn btn-primary btn-small login-button"

    }

Different CSS for post that uses specific tag or category

@joshm wrote:

I’ve seen that categories pages already have this:

<body class=“category-ux” >

But every post inside the category doesn’t have the mentioned body class.

I would like to hide some elements and change the font for all post inside a category, or better, for all post that have a specific tag.

Is this possible?

I’m looking into this because I would like to add blog posts into my discourse installation, and I found that the easiest way is to create a specific category or tag for those blog posts, but I also would like to use a different font and hide some elements in those blog posts. It would be easy if the post that contain a certain tag would have something like this:

<body class=“post category-support tag-tag1 tag-tag2 tag-tag3” >

Use Topic Template with create topic link

@TheOctopus wrote:

I have a category on my forum with a topic template. For ease of access I want to create a link that will auto-open the create topic panel with this category loaded. Right now I have a link to /new-topic?category_id=7, which correctly starts a new topic for that category. However, this doesn’t use the topic template. If I manually click the Create Topic button it does use this template. How can I combine these two and create a link that uses the topic template?

Disabling/restricting user search

@jerry0 wrote:

We are using private categories for restricting access to different groups of users, so essentially keeping those users separate as they belong to different organisations and will not want to see what each other are posting.

The settings for restricting visibility of the groups is working well. Even with group directory enabled, users can only see the groups that they are a member of so we can ensure there is no visibility of groups between organisations.

However, users themselves remain visible and there seems no way to switch it off. It is possible to disable the user directory, but there seems to be no way off disabling user search across the whole site in the search box:

Our users will not be at all happy about being in any way visible to users in other organisations. Whilst we can disable their real names from appearing, many of our usernames are well structured and derived from email addresses (and we use SSO so they can’t change them). So it causes a privacy issue.

What we really could do with is a way of either a) disabling user search altogether or b) restricting visibility of a member to only users within groups of of which the user is a member. Is either of these hackable?
