Newlines stripped in HTML email replies to notifications

Continuing the discussion from Apple Mail formatting:

Seems like @techAPJ tried to fix this, at least for Apple Mail client, but I'm reproducing the same thing with current code, when sending HTML replies from GMail.

Screenshots, etc., available if necessary but it basically seems to be the same problem.

Chrome 38 on Mac - missing font-awesome icons

cpradio wrote:

So we have a user who is seeing boxes where the font-awesome icons should appear. He is using a Mac and Chrome v38 (I assume that is latest for Chrome on Mac).

Does anyone else have this problem? Or know what the issue may be? I don't own a Mac, so testing is a bit difficult for me to do...

I found the following search results, but I'm not sure they are relevant.

Discourse's SSO randomly decided to append a 1

I'm not sure what's going on but sometimes the user's name just get's appended with a 1.

The external ID and the email is the same, so I don't know why it's being changed. On top of that, all the posts and everything are still linked to that user. I cannot change the user's name either. Not too sure what's going on. If anyone has insight, it would be greatly appreciated.

Fully support Android Chrome's "Add to Homescreen"

New in Chrome 39 Beta is an improved add to homescreen experience.

Since Chrome M31, you can set up your web app to have an application shortcut icon added to a device's homescreen, and have the app launch in full-screen "app mode" using Chrome for Android’s "Add to homescreen" menu item.

New in Chrome M39, you can define the metadata associated with your web application in a JSON-based manifest. The manifest provides a way to wrap metadata about a web application into a single file. Using this metadata in conjunction with Add to Homescreen, you can create launch experiences more comparable to native applications.

Would be very cool to see this fully supported. Could do some interesting things with AppCache while at it.

Mini avatar of replying-to is too close to revisions button

Swapping position of has-replies button and gutter buttons

Erlend Sogge Heggen wrote:

When I look at this post, it feels unnecessarily clunky to me:

I'll be scrolling down there to see that reply for myself in just a sec, mkay? When the post is not highlighted, this is arguably the most prominent element present.

I hardly ever use this button, because more often than not, that reply is one or two notches down, and for the exceptions there's no way of telling you're gonna have to scroll a while anyhow.

To me, the most important function of this button is to inform you that this post has already been replied to, in case you were planning to write a direct reply of your own.

So how about placing the has-replies button next to the reply button, as a subtle "have you seen these other replies?" reminder. This way you also fill in that awkward whitespace that exists whenever the has-replies button is not present.

Email replies from Outlook not stripping out original message

Michael Downey wrote:

Had a user reply to a post (in a restricted subcategory, for what it's worth) via HTML email using Microsoft Outlook 2010, and the original message was not stripped out. Checked the incoming email and nothing out-of-the-ordinary about it. On our Discourse site (latest), the reply post appeared as follows.

The same thing happened when the user replied to a PM via email.

Interestingly, the reply wouldn't (shouldn't?) have been processed because the reply message was only "Agreed!" which is only 7 characters, well under the minimum character requirement of 20.


Agreed!

How to add the plugin to http://www.discourseplugins.org/

Unable to add invited emails to trust level groups

Tobias Eigen wrote:

On the admin interface, admins are able to manually add users they know they trust to e.g. trust_level_2.

When inviting new users, admins are able to select groups but not trust levels. This is a problem since those trusted people who are being invited are now being treated as new users who are prevented from doing various things, which is especially confusing when they interact via email and get errors like this:

Reason:

Sorry, new users can only mention 2 users in a post.
Sorry, new users can't put images in posts.
Sorry, new users can only put 2 links in a post.

If you can correct the problem, please try again.

I see there is discussion elsewhere about this issue of trust levels and invitations, but my case is more specific - methinks admins should be able to specify the trust level directly.

Reply button - consistent icon

James Milligan wrote:

The reply button on the editor and individual posts has an arrow on it, whereas the general 'topic reply' button doesn't. The latter appears in a 'toolbar' where all the other buttons also have icons on.

I recommend keeping the reply button consistent, and adding the reply 'arrow' to all reply buttons.

Inconsistent Link Parsing

Note that only the plain text seems to be parsing as an actual link while the other two are anchor tags without href attributes (or at least that is how it is working on the version that site is running will edit if different behavior here - same behavior).

Quote in category name breaks migrations

Michael (founder of DiscourseHosting.com) wrote:

This migration breaks whenever the meta category name or description contains a single quote. It's probably a (low risk) SQL injection vector as well.

EDIT: to make it worse, the default French meta category description does actually contain a single quote by default.

Avatars not always showing up after refresh

Franz wrote:

This is possibly not strictly Discourse-related, but since I followed the Discourse on Digital Ocean tutorial rather scrupulously, I figured there might be other people with the same problem, and who can hopefully provide some hints at resolving it.

I'm administrating a Discourse instance at https://forum.appleseedhq.net/ (note: HTTPS). When I refresh the page (by pressing F5 or CTRL-F5), it often happens that the avatar images do not appear correctly (the images don't load), and there are many such errors in the console:

Failed to load resource: net::ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED
https://forum.appleseedhq.net/user_avatar/forum.appleseedhq.net/narann/25/15.png

Eventually all the avatar images end up loading correctly, usually after many refreshes.

The problem happens both on Chrome 39 and Firefox 31.

Any idea what's going on? Could it be SSL-related?

Inconsistencies on "User Fields" admin interface

Gerhard Schlager wrote:

There are a few inconsistencies on the admin interface for "User Fields":

  • The help text says "Any fields added here will be required from users when they sign up." which seems to be right. Every field is shown as required on the sign-up form. However, there's also a checkbox "Required at signup?". I couldn't figure out what it is doing. Seems kinda unfinished to me... (repro steps below)
  • The red Cancel button doesn't fit into the usual color scheme for buttons. I was under the impression that this danger color should only be used when something dangerous could happen. Canceling the creation of a user field doesn't seem that dangerous to me.

BTW: There's lots of free space that isn't used for the buttons. When the German translation is used it looks like this (buttons are shown on top of each other):

Annoying enterprise-y link issue

Clay Heaton wrote:

In trying to get an internal Discourse instance up and running at work, I've noticed that a number of people are using the link button to enter network file share links.

What you end up with is code that looks like this (when clicking the edit button):

Network path:

[\\some_drive\some_path\some_file.xls][1]

[1]: http://%5C%5Csome_drive%5Csome_path%5Csome_file.xls

It renders like this:

\some_drive\some_path\some_file.xls

Yes, the button does say "Insert Hyperlink" and has http:// as an example, but people don't seem to understand that and don't understand why the links don't work. Over the past week, I've seen 1/2 dozen people independently repeat this.

While it's not a bug, I thought that you might want to know. Perhaps a plugin could handle this?

Deploying Question

I have read the Beginners Guide to Deploy Discourse to DO using Docker. I have never deployed anything before and I want to ask few questions. Say that I have customized the look of the Discourse and added configs etc.., how to deploys what's on my local machine? Is the tutorial referring to "upload" the discourse folder on my machine and all its configs?

Question 2:
If I make changes on my local machine, how to update what's on DO's servers?

I may ask a lot of weird questions because I'm at a learning stage.

Uploading SVG doesn't work anymore

Gerhard Schlager wrote:

Since this has been changed it's not possible to upload any SVG images anymore. I can reproduce this here on meta and on my development server.

Steps to reproduce:

Expected behaviour: SVG should be allowed and recognized as image.

Actual behaviour: The following error message appears:

Sorry, but the file you tried to upload doesn't appear to be an image.

Uploading WEBP works, but it's not recognized as an image.

BTW: I'm able to upload a SVG and WEBP as avatar, but it's not visible.
