So, if I needed the System account to send custom automated messages, how would I do this?

I understand it may be entirely impossible, but I figured it was worth a try to ask.

Can Discourse connect to GitLab?

Https (Pros / Cons and How do you do it?)

@BCHK wrote:

I searched the forums here and couldn't find any obvious instructions on how to get https working on my discourse forums (that are up to date on the current build).

I'm just curious about the process of implementing it (it seems that just checking the https option in settings isn't going to work), and if there are pros and cons to using https in terms of response times, load on server, etc.

Any feedback greatly appreciated,

Switch language via URL?

@hongquan wrote:

Hi

Does Discourse support live switching language via URL, like discourse.vn/?lang=vi ?

I'm asking this because our main website, www.easyuni.my allows user to select language in URL, like www.easyuni.my/id/ (for Indonesian). We will add Discourse as our forum, linking to it from the main site, and try to maintain the language preference via URL.

How can we achieve that?

Hi all,

Just thought I'd share my experience with you. I had a similar experience when changing the domain name (we have a custom-managed DNS). However, the solution provided by this post is not valid.

The error I got was:

FAILED TO BOOTSTRAP

There is clearly something wrong with the way that existing symlinks are dealt with.
I had tried to be fancy and use an existing docker image as the base (editing launcher) to use it, which didn't work. However, after cleaning up (rm -rf) everything under /var/discourse/shared I re-ran bootstrap (after removing all images on the host), the bootstrap worked.

I guess the question is : how do I run discourse in a pre-prepared container (ie, move from my laptop dev environment to the hosted web environment ?)

Unable to load notifications at this time

When using SSO and no default welcome message, new users get a "Unable to load notifications at this time" when they click the icon for messages. All new users on our platform, using SSO, click that and get that message.

If you send them a PM, or their first notification, it clears and shows a notification but the default should say something like "You have no notifications at this time".

How Googlebot Crawls Javascript - an interesting article

@DeanMarkTaylor wrote:

I read an interesting recent review of Google as a search engine (Googlebot) handles JavaScript, this review covers actual tests on page rank.

I thought the Discourse dev's might be interested in.

Please note I am not suggesting that Discourse changes how it represents itself to search engines, nor specifically Googlebot; currently this would VERY likely have a negative impact.

For those that don't know: Discourse currently delivers non-JavaScript pages optimized using some SEO best practices to a specific list of search engines based on their known User Agent strings.

We Tested How Googlebot Crawls Javascript And Here’s What We Learned

http://searchengineland.com/tested-googlebot-crawls-javascript-heres-learned-220157

Although a major part of this review which seems to be missing is the loading of content over AJAX / Single Page Application (SPA), but there was another blog post linked in the comments which covers some of this:

"Precomposing" a SPA may become the Holy Grail to SEO

http://www.analog-ni.co/precomposing-a-spa-may-become-the-holy-grail-to-seo

In-short it doesn't look like infinite scroll is supported, but "links to pages" built in JavaScript are.

Selecting replies of replies

@boomzilla wrote:

When selecting posts (using the admin menu in a topic) there is an option to select replies. However, if a post is selected because it is a reply, there's no way to select its replies other than manually. This is somewhat error prone when extracting an off topic subtopic.

Could we get an extra "Select Replies" button / link / whatever on these automatically selected posts that have replies of their own?

So I'm trying to promote a forum thread in facebook.

Step 1: Share the thread to facebook (works)
Step 2: Boost the post (has a strange error)

Here's the thread I'm sharing to facebook: https://forum.apexinvesting.com/t/what-the-heck/2304

The image contained in the forum header and favicon is located at https://forum.apexinvesting.com/uploads/default/1356/580aa5207be07e1e.ico ... if you click it, it works.

But facebook boost fails with this error message:

I'm not sure why this happens ... does anyone have any idea?

Renaming a server

@pfaffman wrote:

I started my Discourse under one hostname (using Docker on digitalocean.com). I decided that I want it to live on another hostname. I made the necessary changes to app.yml and all seemed pretty good. I found, though, that (at least) some images are no longer accessible because in the database the image host is hard-coded.

No problem, I thought, just download the backup, do a global replace, and then upload and restore the database. I thought I was so clever.

Sadly, it doesn't seem to have taken. The page still has the images linked to the old hostname (which, if not for mismatched ssl certs, would work just fine).

What am I missing. Is something cached? Did it not restore?
