OK so a pretty simple idea that I just wanted to gauge potential interest on.
For one of the forums I work with, one of our community managers handles a team of volunteers that needed to be added as volunteers. I noticed that it's not possible to search for users in the admin panel by email.
Thus, the proposal is for a fairly simple feature to accept either usernames or email addresses in the admin panel search. But obviously I don't just want to put this together and submit a pull request, I'd much rather make sure this would actually be a useful tool for others first.
My website is in an Indian regional language and I need to provide typing in Devnagari symbols. If anyone has already written a plugin or something for this please let me know. Else I will write one.
To clarify, they can not see the content, just that the topic exists and its title.
For an example, go to https://talk.openmrs.org/categories (no log in necessary) and look under the "Meta" category and click some of the topics that appear there.
Is there a way I can get a list of all user email addresses or easily sync the userbase with MailChimp? I have a product announcement I would like to send a specialized mailing for.
This has been happening the last day or so. I've re-bootstrapped and did a rebuild and it's still showing up. New updates have come out since and it just keeps showing 0 new commits.
On my forum I have some custom CSS to make the footer of the page a different background-color from the white body (and also to take the entire width of the page)
This works great, except sometimes when new content is loaded. Then I see some 40px worth of whitespace at the bottom of the footer.
I believe this is due to an inline style which I suppose is being dynamically added to the #main-outlet element via javascript.
I have a simple request. Whenever the added padding is needed, is it possible to set it via a CSS class instead of inline css? That way I could override the whitespace with my own custom stylesheet.
Please note - this is not just a "please change your software to match the exact needs of my specific implementation" type of request. It's simply good practise to avoid inline styles.
I don't want to download the github code but the exact code which my site is running currently. Is there anyway to get that repo downloaded to my local machine? Sorry, just too noob with these stuff
It's possible to customise CSS/HTML under customisation in the admin interface, but for the sake of being able to version control a theme, would it be a good idea to add SCSS support on the custom CSS page?

docker_manager update went smoothly, but the discourse upgrade outputs:

I let a few upgrades lapse before updating to this most recent version, and it looks like that may be the issue. Not sure how to fix this.
Error Class
ActionView::Template::Error
Error Message Invalid :protocol option: "http://http://"
Users can upload avatars but they do not show, and only show a broken image icon. Also, when I tested with mandrill it had the url of my site with an extra "http://". I am not sure how I can fix this.
Also, after uploading an image to the assets topic, it changes to this url:
So something is definitely wrong. Can't find any info on this topic. I know it's just because I most likely mistakenly added the http to my domain url at some point.
The admin for one of the forums I use for my hobby recently shut down his hobby forum, which is based on phpBB. He was a victim of massive spam and didn't have time to deal with it. He's offered to give me admin access to the forum to bring it back alive, but I am reluctant to volunteer for this since I don't know what features phpBB has to fight spam. I'm also not really interested in learning more about phpBB.
I offered to start a new forum for him based on Discourse, but it would be fresh. he would lose all the content on his old forum.
This is for an open source project related to a specific type of Android application development. No one really has any time or interest to deal with spammers. The end-result is that the community has lost the forum and I think the primary developer is probably a bit disillusioned with the whole concept of giving back to the community with open source and access to a forum.
I'm not really sure what to do here, but thought I would see if there was a quick listing of the features that Discourse has to fight spam that phpBB does not.
This is a bit sad for more since I use the open source project to teach my kids Python. The libraries are still there of course, but it is a bit disheartening that spammers can kill a discussion community built around a ncie open source project.

If I get everything working again the way I had it, can I lean on you guys for maintaining my droplet?
Note: I will have some custom javascript widgets that will be in the header and some that will be included in the body (you guys have seen the stock bar I made (someone has)...I will make more junk like that). I will be responsible for that functioning (not you guys).
I pay $10 for my 1gb droplet has Discourse dev considered maintenance packages and fees?
What I am looking for: Come visit the site and occasionally click the blue upgrade button, and make sure the website survives, else fix the the broken.
I installed SSO plugin (I dont know if its related), but I removed it (deleted the folder from plugins). I dont know if its related, but I have readed SSO will disable normal login. So may be its related.
The admin popup is loading for several seconds, and then it dissapear but Im still not logged in. Im using a Bitnami server on EC2.
With 1 mil topics and pinnend globally topics the TopicList (Startpage) needs 12 sec to load on eight core and 8GB memory system.
Without the ordering of pinned topics (default_ordering) it needs only 2 sec.

Hello everyone, just wanted to share with you a good web-site where you can pick colors and it's hex codes and palettes for your discourse page. As an example: Adrift in Dreams.
