Categories page blank when accessed from drop-down

When the Categories link here is clicked,
the browser throws a JS error:

This doesn't happen if it's opened in a new tab or if one clicks on the Categories link from the nav bar containing "Latest", "New", ... "Categories"

A few API problems
Michael wrote:
As some of you might know we're developing a PHP REST API client. We're running into a lot of problems though.
1) Trying to change some site settings but this doesn't work. My Ruby knowledge is pretty limited, but this is what I think is happening.
First, some code snippets.
config/routes.rb
Discourse::Application.routes.draw do ... namespace :admin, constraints: StaffConstraint.new do get '' => 'admin#index' resources :site_settings, constraints: AdminConstraint.newlib/admin_constraint.rb
class AdminConstraint def matches?(request) return false unless request.session[:current_user_id].present? User.admins.where(id: request.session[:current_user_id].to_i).exists? end endlib/current_user.rb
# possible we have an api call, impersonate unless @current_user if api_key = request["api_key"] if api_username = request["api_username"] if SiteSetting.api_key_valid?(api_key) @is_api = true @current_user = User.where(username_lower: api_username.downcase).first end end end endAs far as I understand, this is the problem: the StaffConstraint and AdminConstraint check the session and not the user object, thus causing the API impersonation to fail and to treat the request as if no one was logged in, obviously denying changing the site_setting.
2) Creating a user on an invite only forum fails. Yes that makes sense on a user interface but does it make sense if the API is being used ?
app/controllers/user_controller.rb
class UsersController < ApplicationController ... def create return fake_success_response if suspicious? params ... def suspicious?(params) honeypot_or_challenge_fails?(params) || SiteSetting.invite_only? endWhy is this honeypot complicating things anyway? That is security by obscurity...

Discourse alone or Discourse + Blog at the front of a community?
Pablo Corral wrote:
Hi mates,
I would like your opinion about this thoughts.
I understand that Discourse is not designed to be a blog software, and most implementations (this site, howtogeek, and eveing boing boing) are using blogs as first door. Thouse blogs, generaly, share news and reports, and are a good summary of what you could be finding inside.
Is there any recommendation based in the current experience during this year on using that approach? Any learning?
What I see valuable, is that having a blog or a clean front page, helps a lot to create a clean onboarding experience. Easy in terms of clarity for a new user. It's easy to read a blog, and then , deep dive over the forums (throught commments or a forum lunk). My points, is that it's better have a first encounter with a frontpage like that, than have a first encounter with a Discourse index full of topics.
What do you think?
Tks!

302 redirect loses JSON .format
znation wrote:
I am attempting to use the REST API to programatically retrieve JSON replies to posts. The post titles are predictable, so I am making calls like:
GET http://servername/t/post-title-foo.json
However, this 302 redirects to "http://servername/t/post-title-foo/:id" (where :id is the unique ID of the post, which I don't know how to predict).
Here's a repro (note that it 302 redirects to a non-JSON URL):
http://try.discourse.org/t/this-site-is-a-sandbox-it-is-reset-every-day.jsonI think this is a bug, since I would expect the redirect to preserve format (if my original request URL had .json on the end, I think it should redirect to a .json URL). Should I open a bug on GitHub issues?

Text after quote is bigger
Sander Datema wrote:
Unless my eyes deceive me it looks like the text on this post is not all the same size.
Nothing fancy was added to the text, this is the raw source:
It looks like [this topic](http://meta.discourse.org/t/there-is-no-way-to-view-a-global-list-of-staff-user-invites/9032?u=sander78) between @sam and @codinghorror has a history of being in multiple places. Judging from this: http://meta.discourse.org/t/there-is-no-way-to-view-a-global-list-of-staff-user-invites/9032/10?u=sander78 This new topic has @sam as the topic starter. However, on the mail list you see @codinghorror as such: <img src="/uploads/meta_discourse/1556/48a48a549163d092.png" width="690" height="32"> So... I guess that is a bug?It seems that the second bit of text has a different CSS class than the first one. Couldn't find out what yet.
Edit: ha, it happens here as well: first text is normal, then after the screenshot it's bigger and after the code block it's normal again.

Text hyperlinks to topics get oneboxed
Iszi wrote:
I tried hyperlinking some text in a reply to another topic. The link in this case was pointing to another topic, and the hyperlinked text was all on its own line. Although I specifically used Markdown in such a way that I expected it to create a text-based hyperlink, it instead oneboxed the link for me.
For example, this:
[Please read the friendly Welcome thread.](http://meta.discourse.org/t/welcome-to-meta-discourse-org/1)Becomes this:
Please read the friendly Welcome thread.
I'm curious if this works with other oneboxed content... yup. This:
[You need to learn the difference between the U.K., England, and Great Britain.](http://youtu.be/rNu8XDBSn10)Becomes this:
You need to learn the difference between the U.K., England, and Great Britain.
I'm sure this is really an edge case. Some may even say "you're just doing hyperlinks wrong" - and I wouldn't totally disagree. However, this is definitely what I would call "unexpected behavior" which would generally be nice to avoid.

Invitation expiry workflow is wonky
Sam Saffron wrote:
Out of the box invitations are good for 14 days, when this period expires the user clicking on the invite must be informed that the invitation expired.
If a user is ever invited again to the topic the day counter must be reset.
(this is all particularly problematic for sites such as parley where access is restricted)

First Admin GUI utility
Anton wrote:
Now that installation gets more easier with Docker, why don't we get it even more easier with a GUI utility to create the very first admin right from your browser?
I enjoyed few types and 5 mins installation with Docker over DigitalOcean, but I still have to do some Ruby in cli:
u = User.first u.admin = true u.saveWe could make an admin creation page available (e.g /add-first-admin) provided there are zero admins in the database, OR even simpler /make-first-user-admin which will be only available and will execute only if there are zero admins in database.
Another possibility is to have "administrator" checkbox when registering the very first user in a standard registration form.
Anyway, there are different possibilities, why not to make such a micro GUI tool to avoid questions like this. Personally I'd be happy to use one.
Btw, this makes setting up SSH to Docker-based installation unnecessary, which complements Update button in administration GUI. This is good especially to decrease the setup time - i.e. time period between you buy your VPS and open your forum in web browser.
Hope it makes sense. Would be happy to read your thoughts about it.

Advertising Roadmap for Near Future
Dev wrote:
@sam, @zogstrip, @codinghorror and the rest of the discourse team.
I have already seen posts related to support for advertising and it looks minimal except for adding HTML at the top and bottom of a page.
I think Discourse is a great software and I am working on launching at least two discussion forums based on this but wanted to know what kind improvements are being planned (if any) for better advertising support over the next 2-3 months.
Thanks,

Sort order for groups
Steve Baer wrote:
We have an "employee" group defined which has access to see topics under an "McNeel Private" category. We are up to 31 members in this group and it is becoming hard to tell who is already in it. Could you display the members of the group in alphabetical order so I can parse the information a little easier?
Thanks,
