What is the best way to delete old docker containers on a live production server without disrupting anything?
How can I set it to happen daily? Cron? Why isnt this feature already implemented in Discourse?

Maybe this already exists, but based on the SSO example, you can only send data back to Discourse like username or email... I'd like to also be able to set things like admin and moderator privileges, or even user level based on various conditions on our site (like setting a user's level to 3 if theyre a paid subscriber on our site).
Is this possible?

We recently released our Discourse forum to replace our self-built mini-forum app, and some users are up in arms over the mobile version not being as friendly (personally, I dont see how they can prefer our terrible self-built app, but some people just hate change).
One issue they have that does actually make sense though, is swapping from our old only-text-based forum to this one means increases in bandwidth usage, and for people on data plans without unlimited data, they risk hitting their caps.
One solution I thought of for saving bandwidth was maybe there could be a user-based preference to enable a barebones mobile layout? One that doesnt even load avatars? And maybe has a few other bandwidth saving tricks someone smarter than me might know about.

Is there a shortcut that replicates the "standard" behavior of Unix/Emacs C-k (delete text from cursor to end of line)? I find myself using it quite often and have to erase the text that's inserted every time.

I'm trying to follow the steps from the "Running other websites with Discourse" how-to, but i feel like:

So, if someone with NGINX and Docker experience wants to help me, we can agree a budget.
Objetive:
Leave my current hosting and take it all to Digital Ocean by running on a same 10$ DigitalOcean droplet a little Discourse forum (20 people) + Wordpress (personal blog) + TinyTinyRSS + SemanticScuttle + WallaBag.

Is this because of encoding? I think it is UTF-8,right? Actually, I got stream using httpclient, and then I want to get the return from my discourse-based website, but I got that return. =_=!
any help would be appreciated!

Hello folks,
This is my first topic - very excited about what Discourse has to offer, and just had a few questions I was hoping you could shed some light on. I've looked around the support forums but couldn't find everything I was looking for.
I run a forum for the Muse fan community which is built upon a legacy LAMP setup (using LDU as its CMS). Discourse looks great - I have a test site up and running and it's working well (digitalocean // mandrill // S3 // ghost + discourse setup).
We'd like to migrate our news over to ghost and our forums over to Discourse. Our current news commenting system hooks into our forum, so I first of all had a quick question regarding that.
- If I migrate our existing forums over to Discourse (including the 'News' forum) and set up an RSS feed of new blog entries from Ghost (which will contain our migrated news), how can I ensure we don't get any duplicates? Does discourse have any clever algorithm to detect/prevent duplicated entries being created?
My second question revolves around how users are handled. Our existing site has close to 200,000 of them -- not all of whom are active (in fact, only a small minority are). Not all of them have posted in our forums and some of them are banned.
- What actually happens when I import users (e.g. using a modified version of the phpBB3 script)? How are they notified that they have new accounts -- and can these notifications be delayed/disabled whilst I'm still testing (I don't want to spam them all!)? Could I maybe invite them in batches?
- Does Discourse support/handle (or have plans to) bounce notifications from 3rd party e-mail solutions (e.g. Mandirll has a bounce hook)?
- Levels/badges etc - If I import a user who has, say, 500 posts to their name, are badges/trust levels automagically applied, or are these only calculated after everything has been imported?
And finally, performance. The current forum has very low activity at the moment, for a variety of reasons (next to no notifications, twitter/facebook emigration etc.). We currently get around 50 new posts a day (it used to be +1000). There are ~2.4m posts and ~50k topics.
- Will the shear size of the database, regardless of # queries, cause performance issues?
- I'm expecting activity to increase once we go live (because Discourse is freakin' awesome). I'm testing using a 1GB digitalocean droplet which I can scale up/down accordingly, but is there anything else I should be aware of before opening the floodgates?
Thank you all in advance for any tips/suggestions you might have.

Today I just went to help a guy to set up a Discourse instance. Here is a problem I have to deal with.
It's known GFW blocks many traffic which goes to outside world, like facebook and twitter. But it blocks rubygems too. I know it's weird, which Chinese engineers agree, but it's the truth.
We built mirrors to deal with it. Here is one supported by Taobao which sync in every 15 minutes. But if I want a docker installation, I have to connect to a VPN which is awkward for end users.
Can we do something for that problem?

Other than muting topics/posts, is there any other way to prevent being notified (the number near your name) of new posts, or someone mentioning your name, or quoting you in another post?

Any chance of getting a on hover effect (a href alt text) of first post content to get a feel for what a topic is about without having to enter it? Maximum size restriction of course, say 250..500 characters.

I was pleased to discover the new feature to add category logo images. But when I add the logo, it hides the title of the category on the category listing which is not the behavior I would expect. See screenshot below.
Is it intended that admins create a logo that includes the name of the category? How are others using this feature?

I've started a thread in "support" that this is basically an extension of.
I'd like to request a feature that will allow users to COMPLETELY DISABLE or HIDE the notifications icon, the numbers that appear next to the user name indicating a quote of that user by another, or when someone "likes" that user's post, or that user is mentioned by another user, or there's a new email message or private message.
I find the whole thing distracting and annoying, and I'd like to be able to hide/disable that feature.
Custom stylesheets (or anything that requires a plugin) is not an option, as the only time I'll ever be using a Discourse forum is when at work, and the admins do not give us the permissions to install plugins, or anything. And they won't install a plugin unless it's something required for the job.
V/r,
^_^

If the first paragraph of the "about category" post has a link or any markdown, it is displayed as cleartext HTML in the description for the category - see screenshot.

I have no idea what would cause this, other than it seeing two real users + a system post, but the system post is interpreted as the second user icon. Though how it managed to grab the first and last icon is pretty special.
