I often find myself searching for things on the forum as I am posting, and get into a ux bind. The "create new topic" edit window is in front of the search results, so I can't scroll down the search results and find what I am looking for without first closing the edit window, which I then have to reopen after searching. If it's possible, this issue would be helped by having the search results appear on top of the edit window. The same is true for all of the menus, though with search the results are much bigger so it's not possible to shrink the edit window down enough to see it all without closing the edit window, with the others you can.
Currently, when you mouse over the edit icon on wiki pages you see "this post is a wiki; basic users can edit it." Since "basic user" is an arcane discourse term, I suggest changing this to "this post is a wiki; if you can see it, you can edit it" or something simple like that.
Apparently I need to be in the translation team for me to be able to do that. Can somebody please add me to that group, even if temporarily? (I'm foobar in transifex) Or make the file available to me, perhaps a pastebin or whatever other mechanism.
FWIW I've already localized a ton strings to Catalan. I'm hoping to finish at least a first complete Catalan localization, pending a more thorough review, of course.

What multi-hatting might look like:
Use in a sentence: Many of the Discourse developers and support staff are multi-hatting their way through database management and development, web, server hardware, services software including hosting, email, and other dependencies, plus actual design and code development. They are normally tired. Trivial bugs irritate them but they stay professional and roll with the punches (because you don't want to take it full on in the face).
You guys do a great job and you are appreciated (even though it doesn't feel like it some days).
After playing with a lot of gems and ruby dependencies on DO drop install, having this issue.
Rails Error: Unable to access log file. Please ensure that /var/lib/docker/aufs/mnt/xx/var/www/discourse/log/production.log exists and is chmod 0666. The log level has been raised to WARN and the output directed to STDERR until the problem is fixed.

I have set the plugin up and all is great - when publishing a WP blog topic it grabs first few lines of text and sets a new topic in Discourse, email alerts going off, etc. Is there a setting for grabbing the first image as well as the opening lines of text?
When trying to start the server. When I remove the code that's broken the page loads but fails to load the stylesheets. I just forked this from the "master" branch. Is anyone else having this issue?
When editing an article that ends with a line of text by adding an image below that one, in its own paragraph by seperating with an empty line, won't be saved until one adds another paragraph of text below it.
I have deployed a discourse installation which is invite only and I am looking for a way to trigger invitations from another website. However, I don't want to invite users to a specific topic, but to the forum in general. The ideal solution for this is to have invites generated from the user profile page functionality.
Is there a way to generate invites from the API that will not tie the invite to a specific topic? Bonus points if it is possible to add the user to specific groups. FYI, I'm going to implement this in python so I'm not looking for a solution via the ruby reference api implementation (And I checked that it doesn't support it), however in the routes.txt file I can see some invitation specific endpoints. Do these work? If yes, how can I call them?
when i try to embedding flash to my site, discourse show minimal hight in desktop mode. but if i open my content with mobile browser they working fine this my site content with embed flash if you want to know about my problem
sorry for direct link. i want show embed in this post but discourse can't accept embedding flash
One common problem with forums is you can't reply to really old topics because you will bump it to the top of the forum which annoys other users of the forum because they don't want to see old topics again. But sometimes you need to add something else to that topic (EG to help other users finding the topic on google)
I think it would be a good idea to have a option to not bump the topic when you reply to it. What do you guys think about that?
