HTML Customizations mistakenly applied to admin views?

Previous to 1.3.2beta2, all CSS and HTML Customizations were not shown when viewing admin pages. Now, after updating, on our site the HTML customizations in the "Header" tab are being rendered but the related CSS customizations are not, resulting in a bunch of unstyled text and a broken admin view. Is anyone else seeing this issue?

Same markdown, just without the Some text:

The code snippet in both quotes should be using the PHP hint to apply syntax highlighting, but in the first case, the hint is being interpreted as part of the code block.

Need Help Formatting Posts

Hey there,

I started using discourse about a month ago and need help formatting posts. Whenever I copy & paste text into a new post from word it automatically formats it with weird linebreaks. I'm sure this is an easy fix but I haven't been able to figure it out. Any help would be appreciated!

I tried to post a photo but it won't let me since I'm a new user.

Out-migration from discoursehosting.com?

I'm considering signing up for a site on discoursehosting.com, just wondered if anyone knew about how to migrate away from it. (I'm not planning on it, but just want to know what I'd be getting into if I did.) Is it just a matter of getting a docker image + moving to an appropriate host? or is it more a matter of fidgeting with database + filesystem dumps?

Onebox / Embedding flv files

$

@optimus wrote:

Hi all,

One of the uses of my Discourse will be a video "library" where I want to allow moderators to post video tutorials to help users. I enabled the "Enable embedding of swf and flv (Adobe Flash) links in oneboxes..." option under /admin/site_settings/category/onebox, and then added a new topic and uploaded a flv file.

Below is what it looks like...

What I want is for the flv file to onebox or embed in the topic, not a link to download. So then I tried changing the link using the Editor and used the "Insert Hyperlink" button in the editor to change it from...

<a class="attachment" href="/uploads/default/32/ec65cca47b7bff0d.flv">How to open a service request.flv</a>

to...

[how to create a service request][1]


  [1]: http://discourse.mydomain.org/uploads/default/32/ec65cca47b7bff0d.flv

And it is just a link (no onebox) frowning. See below...

Is there something else I need to do to have the flv files get onebox'd? Basically I want the flv files to just show embeded in the topic so the user does not have to download the flv file first - I'd like them to be able to just watch straight on the topic.

Thanks for any help or tips! If I am not understanding how this should work, please let me know what I am doing wrong, just started using Discourse recently.

PS - I have to put out there that the Discourse community has made me welcome and everyone has been super helpful to me. I am loving Discourse and I really think it's going to benefit my organization.

Best,
Chris

jQuery is undefined in include.js

When trying to embed Discourse an error is thrown pointing to include.js line:666
The errormessage: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'hotkeys' of undefined
The regarding line reads: if (jQuery.hotkeys === undefined) {

It seems to me, that the javascript loading-order is not correct or an extra condition needs to be added to that line.

Discourse version: latest-release +105 - 1.3.0.beta2

Tested in FF 32.0.1 and Chrome 40.0.2214.115m

How do you prevent suspended SPAM accounts from showing in search?

I noticed that suspended accounts still appear search. I have a thousand or so suspended SPAM accounts that I don't want showing up when people search.

  1. Is the best way to handle this to DELETE the account and block the email address? Will that work on a SSO implementation (ie, will the system prevent them from creating a new account associated with that email address when they come through SSO?)

  2. Is there a way, via the UI, to mass purge those same accounts?

Using markdown

Using Control K shows corrected code

#include <iostream>

void recursion(int i)   {

    if(i == 10)

Categories and dropdown menus ordering

@Maestra_Powers wrote:

Just moved to Discourse and I want to use fixed categories ordering for now to not make our new forum look too unusual for users. Reordering is pain! You should add "drag&drop to reorder" feature, sinse Discourse positions itself as easy to use furum.

Also, why this dropdown is not in alphabetical or custom order? It should be alphabetical, I think.

Intermittent stylesheet errors on Heroku installation

@kennym wrote:

We have a Discourse setup on Heroku, running the latest Beta version 1.3.0.beta2.

We randomly get 404s on stylesheet GET requests - they look like:

GET http://discussions.rifflebooks.com/uploads/stylesheet-cache/desktop_3db3a2ce8501eb16c9b4cebc5a512fbcfed4ad0c.css?__ws=discussions.rifflebooks.com

The weird thing is that, if you do a few page refreshs the stylesheet is eventually found.

In addition to that, we use Fast.ly for asset caching, but the above mentioned URL is not a URL to our fast.ly instance.

I also noticed that there's a GlobalSetting.cdn_url setting, however on our site it set to nil and I cannot find a place in the admin to set it. Can it be related to the error I am getting?

The copy of that stylesheet is found on fast.ly.

I'm not the biggest reader out there, but I do read a lot (and I love the whole "need to read" concept behind discourse! smile ). I did read guidelines and got no badge (on other discourse sites).

How exactly do they work? Why might I not be getting 'em?

"endorsements"/trust between users; social network

@jmsachs wrote:

I know Discourse has overall trust levels, but is there any feature (or plugin to add this feature) for users to endorse/trust each other?

The forum I'm planning on setting up, involves notification of real-world events, and there is some benefit if user A knows user B in real life, and user B knows user C in real life, for these users to "endorse" each other (sort of like the way it works on LinkedIn), so that if users A and C don't know each other, they can see that B knows both of them.

The "friend" aspects of Facebook are a little loosey-goosey, but maybe there's something appropriate for Discourse.
