Apologies in advace for what's probably an FAQ.
We're happy with Discourse and not waiting eagerly for specific new functionality. Ought we to be upgrading to each new beta as it appears? Or would it be more sensible to wait for landmark releases?

Continuing the discussion from Cannot delete users with likes:
This looks like it was closed due to a fix, but still see this behaviour in the very latest build (tests passed). The user has had all posts removed, but fails delete talking about posts.
There was an error deleting that user. Make sure all posts are deleted before trying to delete the user.
However, i only get this issue for users that have at least one given like/heart. It looks like the error message is wrong, and that likes still block a full user delete.

I'm using script/import_scripts/phpbb3.rb, it works fine, but there is little problem - my installation of phpbb3 contains cyrillic almost everywhere, so as result am getting wierd texts everywhere - posts, categories etc. sample output:
да, ÑамоÑтоÑтельно, помещение уже куплено, Ñ‰Ð°Ñ Ð¿Ñ€Ð¾Ð²Ð¾Ð´Ð¸Ñ‚ÑÑ Ñ€ÐµÐ¼Ð¾Ð½Ñ‚ и Ð´Ñ€ÑƒÐ³Ð°Ñ Ð¼ÐµÐ»Ð¾Ñ‡Ð¾Ð²ÐºÐ°. через 2-3 недели открытие.
And usernames, which are sometimes in cyrillic too are became something strange like this:
D_D_D_D_D_D_D_D_D_D6
At same moment everything in english works perfect.
My phpbb3 charset database settings are:ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_bin;
Please help.

Hey guys,
I was resolving some false spam flags on our Discourse install and hit the "Defer" button instead of "Unhide". I've gone and manually unhidden the posts, but at the bottom of the post I'm still seeing a message "1 person flagged this as spam. Flag it too."
How do I make that flag go away entirely?

Hi all,
I'm currently trying to figure out a way how to override the
Discourse.SiteSettings.min_post_lengthfrom a plugin. I tried the following stuff to no avail:
- Set
minimumPostLengthin the Composer model to 1. Seems to affect the display of “x characters to go” in the composer, but nothing else.- Override
missingReplyCharacters: function()andminimumPostLength: function()to return 0 or 1. Same effect as above. All looks fine, but if I click submit, I end up with this modal dialog:![]()
…and I can't figure out where this is triggered. I tried to debug into the save method, but the modal dialog comes from some dark place beyond…Any clues for the clueless? TIA!

I know you can inject costom HTML via the control panel, but I want to get some ideas around how to best create a plugin to inject dynamic HTML above/below the
<div class="list-controls">...</div>section.Based on the role of the user, or the category they are viewing, I want to display a different set of HTML links.
Say I want to display:
<ol><li><a href="">link 1</a></li></ol>Based on the users role, I will have different set of links displayed (or hide the section completely).

Sorry if this is not actually a bug, to me it appears to be :/ I cannot see my re-likes in the db.
To reproduce this bug.
1.) Like a post:
![]()
2.) Query the database for the like:
3.) I then see it in the database (as expected)
4.) Then unlike the post:
![]()
5.) Then re-query the database:
(I don't see the like anymore as expected)
6.) Then relike the post:
![]()
7.) Then re-query the database:
BUG IS HERE:
The expected output should be the same as it was in step 3.)I.E.
But this does not happen, I do not see the like in the database.

Before I start, I just want to say as a non-technical, completely un-savvy individual: Discourse is amazing. From the much-improved UX to the growing list of amazing features, this "forum" (and I use that term loosely, as I see it as being in a different class as far as communication tools go) is a whole different animal than anything I've ever seen. Thank you to the co-founders as well as all the many contributors for your work in building this.
With that said, I've been working on creating a community for experts and novices. There would be a community for them to have open discussions (Discourse), and also a way for experts and novices to speak 1-on-1, requiring that I set up profiles for each expert. My plan was to integrate some of the experts' community stats (# of likes, # posts contributed to, etc) and maybe even their most recent posts into their profile, but now I'm wondering if a better alternative would be to scrap using a new profile and instead use their discourse profile as their site profile.
So my question is this: Is is possible to customize Discourse profiles to include functionality such as fields that would list their expertise, an interactive schedule, a method for payment processing (via PayPal/Stripe/Credit Cards), and reviews/ratings? And have these features shown only on those categorized as "experts?"
Or am I better off creating site profiles and integrating forum activity into these profiles?

Hi there!
I wish Discourse will support receiving mails from this webhook based services in the future.I'm not a big fan of providing my own mail services (spam protection & maintenance) or using arbitrary third-party accounts (privacy concerns). I thought this inbound service by Mandrill could be a nice way to fill this gap in my mind. ;oP
https://mandrillapp.com/inbound
SendGrid (my second mail provider) is also able to parse the attachments and contents of incoming emails.
What are you're thoughts on this?

I've signed up for the hosted version of discourse. On my site I want to dynamically create a 'comments' area at the bottom of each page and dynamically create the content of the first post. Can I do that using just js and the api, I dont have access to a serverside language. Can it be done?

Hi all,
this is my site : discourse.ars-artificia.com
and I get broken images for avatars, pretty similar to this topic:
So I made sure everything is up-to-date (nginx version 1.7.10 mainline), but I still get the same error.In addition to that I don't get the exact same error. I get a "HTTP/1.1 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable" error.
Reloading sometimes fixes it, sometimes it does not. The issues started after I enabled SSL and I assume they got worse after I configured nginx with PFS. (Just assumptions though).
I have the ssl option in discourse enabled, but disabled it for testing some time as well.
Looking forward to any help.
Thanks

Hi, well, I've created this post in here about my vision of what Discourse profile could look like, in order to look more appealing and my replies were deleted twice without any pm.
This was a quick draft of what I think how you can improve the appearance and functions of Discourse profile based on Twitter and may be Google+ as well as Myspace.
![]()
You can leave feedback here, but this was weird getting my reply deleted twice without any further explanation. Do you like your current Discourse profile appearance ? Don't you like to improve it or you don't feel you want to improve it ?

Hi,
I don’t know if this is a bug or not but it seems to be a bug to me.
When I create a new PM (Private Message) and I want to add a lot of users, I find that using the name of a given group and then remove some unwanted users is easier than to add manually all the wanted users.
But it doesn’t work, the UI seems fine when removing users from the list but when sending the message, all the users that were originally in the group are still there!So what do you think?

I thought I found the answer to this in another post, but upon looking at my settings under admin, the minimum name length is 6, and all users have at least 6 characters in their usernames.
I get the error that says 'Validation failed: Name must be at least 6 characters'.
Any thoughts are appreciated. Are there hidden names that I can't see?

Error logs page is blank, so I rebuilt the container thinking it was connected to the previous issue that made the whole site a blank white page, now 30 minutes later after the rebuild was complete the error logs page is still blank.
Using the docker install, 4GB ram, small forum, no plugins or CSS changes, version 1.2.0.beta8, etc.
Any recommendations?
