Changing/deleting a category gives routing errors

When I try to change the permissions for a category I get:

ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches [PUT] "/c/27"):
  config/initializers/quiet_logger.rb:10:in `call_with_quiet_assets'
  config/initializers/silence_logger.rb:26:in `call'

If I delete it:

ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches [DELETE] "/c/elememts"):
  config/initializers/quiet_logger.rb:10:in `call_with_quiet_assets'
  config/initializers/silence_logger.rb:26:in `call'

This happened after a few updates ago (probably 1.1), so it's probably something I forgot, but I have no idea where to even look. What could this be?

Fight Spam with the Akismet Plugin

Michael Verdi wrote:

Anyone else got a spam problem? I work for New Relic and we use discourse for our support forum. But, we started getting a lot of spam and it was becoming a problem. Akismet is a well known tool in the Wordpress world that has some algorithm for detecting when a post is spam. I wrote a plugin that allows discourse posts to be filtered through Akismet and I'd like to share it with the discourse community. We have been using it in production for about a week, so it is not super battle tested. PRs for improvements are welcomed.

You can find the plugin here https://github.com/verdi327/akismet

I wrote a good deal in the Readme about how the plugin works, but i'll go over the basics again here...

All new posts are gathered in a background job every 10 minutes and sent to Akismet. If Akismet says the post is spam we preemptively delete it. If you're an admin, you'll see the post as being hidden, if you're a normal user you will have no idea the post ever existed.


All new spam posts are placed inside of a moderator queue that is only accessible to admins. From here you can...

  • confirm the post was spam
  • recover the post if it was wrongly accused, which undeletes the post and sends the post back to Akismet to make it's algorithm smarter to hopefully avoid again in the future.
  • take the nuclear option and delete the user, which removes all their posts and topics and blocks their email and ip address (the email and ip address blocking only happen in production).

To get to the moderator queue, go to /admin

After clicking, you'll see the moderator queue...


Finally, the plugin comes with Hipchat support out of the box, you just need to set some ENV variables. When new spam is caught, it will ping the room and give you a link to moderator queue (only in production).

I'm not sure which versions of discourse the plugin will work for, we have been using it off the latest 1.2.0.beta2. Again, you can find the plugin here https://github.com/verdi327/akismet

Hope this helps you out smile

Render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content

Michael Downey wrote:

Google's PageSpeed Insights for meta.discourse.org (and my own instance) shows several opportunities for improvement:

  • Mobile score is 62/100 for speed & 99/100 for UX.
  • Desktop is 83/100.

https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmeta.discourse.org%2F

For both mobile and desktop, the biggest area for performance improvement is eliminating render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content.

From a non-developer standpoint, does the team have any plans for improvement in these areas?

"Replies" button spawns new tab but doesn't show replies

Apologies if this has been mentioned before (searching for "replies", with quotes, gave me a bunch of results with singular "reply", so I wasn't able to verify whether I was duplicating another post).

I was just reading a blog post on Coding Horror. One of the comments had a "3 Replies" button beneath it. I clicked that button, and it popped open a new tab. After the page finished rendering, I looked for the replies I was expecting and didn't see any. In fact, it seemed I had just been dropped somewhere, and I felt lost.

After flipping back to the original tab, I realized the new tab was in fact showing me the same comment I had just read, but seeing no replies indented beneath made it seem like it had scrolled me to the wrong place. Eventually, I figured out what had happened. It performed a "continue discussion" for me and auto-scrolled to the same place in the conversation, but it did not open the replies box.

This was my first experience trying to actually interact with Discourse (beyond just reading comments), so I know I'm just a n00b who hasn't figured out how stuff works yet, but I can't think of a good reason not to actually show the replies.

I'm not sure if this is by design or a bug, so I tagged it "ux" for now. I should also mention that this was in Firefox running in Windows 7.

Should not install plugin with database migration when using docker

It's 4 am here and I worked all night to solve this problem.
At first, I can't move discourse to a new server with the official guide .
@zogstrip had helped me to found out what the problem is when I can't restore the database to the new server. It caused by Tagger plugin which I was installed 2 days ago. I made some database migration caused the version change smile. (log here)
But, by a mistake, I make a backup and restore that backup in the old server.
It caused that error too although the version is extracly the same.
I had to restore the whole server with an old daily backup (before install tagger) to solve this problem.
Just let you guys know smile

About 100 posts was lost.
I may think that roll back the migration can work.
Can you guys show me how to do that?
This is the command when I do the migration

rake tagger:install:migrations
rake db:migrate SCOPE=tagger

SSO Error with Wordpress

When the user logs in to Wordpress and then goes to the discourse forum and clicks login the user is logged in perfectly.

However if the user visits the Discourse site first and then clicks login they are taken to the Wordpress login page as expect but an Invalid Request error is given after attempting to login. This is the resulting url:

Continuing the discussion from What is a onebox?:

I installed docker on my opensuse maschine. It runs as localhost:8080. Everything works so far, but I still struggle with oneboxes.

  • Twitter onebox doesn't work
  • Amazon onebox doesn't have an image
  • gist (github) onebox doesn't work.

Do I need to activate this somewhere?

Regression in translation

Hi,

I have installed a new discourse instance using latest version (1.2.0.beta2) and it seems to have regression in translations.

I have an other discourse instance ( 1.2.0.beta1) and the same translation is ok.

I am using the french localisation.

For example the create topic and create discussion buttons are not translated.

Multiple Discourse instances using the same S3 bucket

Yousef Alam wrote:

Hey all,

I was wondering if it was possible to use one S3 bucket to store and serve content from multiple Discourse instances, preferably seperated by folders? In the worst case, can we just point the instances at one bucket and hope none of the files clash?

EDIT: The reason for this is that we've reached the S3 bucket limit on our account and we'd like to deploy multiple Discourse instances.

Thanks!

We're using Amazon SES as the SMTP server. I think it's some type of encoding error?

Any help is appreciated.

Trouble enabling automatic backups to S3

Justin Gordon wrote:

Related to this topic:

My backups are failing with this message:

[2014-11-27 18:30:00 +0000] EXCEPTION: Missing required arguments: aws_access_key_id, aws_secret_access_key
[2014-11-27 18:30:00 +0000] /var/www/discourse/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.0.0/gems/fog-core-1.24.0/lib/fog/core/service.rb:237:in `validate_options'

However, I'm 100% sure that I have "s3 access key id" and "s3 secret access key" set on the settings/file tab. I also have "enable 23 uploads" turned to false and no "s3 upload bucket" set. I'm using IAM access keys configured per the instructions. I have the s3 region set to us-west-1, and that should correspond to my my bucket.

How do I troubleshoot this?

I'd like to suggest that the configuration for using S3 for backups, but not images, is a bit confusing, as from the backups tab, you need to know that you set the S3 credentials on the Files tab.
