Purge Blocked IP Addresses that haven't had a match for n months

I haven't found a setting for this, so I'm assuming it doesn't exist (pardon me, if my assumption is incorrect).

Sitepoint is in the process of removing 1700 blocks on IPs because a good majority of them haven't had a recent match and a few of these are blocking users who seem legit (as they email our support team asking why they can't register/login).

So I'd like to see a setting that would auto-purge blocked entries if they fail to have a match in the last n months.

Mockup:

Default would be 6 months (or longer) -- I feel that may be a safe default.

Wordpress plugin changes URL of @username on Wordpress side

The Discourse plugin integrated into Wordpress works fine, however I just noticed from a broken link checker that with a Discourse comment that references an @ username , the @ username URL morphs from forum.domain.com/user/username on the Discourse side to domain.com/user/username on the Wordpress side, and now shows as a busted link on my Wordpress install

Any suggestions on what box in the dashboard needs ticking or resetting?

Method for implementing eg cloudflare.template.yml

Continuing the discussion from When all users come from 127.0.0.1, new registrations are blocked:

What is the recommended method for implementing additions like like this to app.yml? I just copied in the text into my app.yml. Should I instead have saved your cloudflare.template.yml file in my /var/discourse/containers and referred to it? Or do these templates live elsewhere in the file system?

Thanks again for helping me fix this. Much appreciated.

Host files from discourse?

I am wanting to create a dedicated category about community initiatives and hackings around the "maker movement" - each thread would host a projects/examples of a hackable project and they would download files and share files. So we need to be able to understand how to host files from discourse?

Choose avatar from limited selection?

@gordon_ryan wrote:

So you can set Discourse to allow user uploaded avatars. You can also set up Discourse to have custom default avatars. But does anyone know of a good way to allow users to select avatars from a limited set of custom avatars?

We want to allow our users to be able to select their avatars, but we want their options to be limited to the characters in our game (there are somewhere around 200 and counting, so it's not a very limited set). Does anyone know of an example of someone doing this in Discourse or have any good ideas for how to accomplish it?

(sorry if this is in the wrong category)

Attachments link to 404 error

Hi,

On our old discourse everything is fine, but I'm also working on a new one and when we upload a pdf, the link to the attachment is wrong:

/uploads/default/original/1X/9bdc2c9814...b350a7.pdf

Basically, I have to manually remove the "/original/1X/" in the url to make it works.

Any idea ? I forget to turn some parameters on ?

How do I add an admin or moderator?

So I am trying to figure out the difference between a few things.

We have a closed staff category - how do I manage who can see it?

We also have a SketchUp Team member badge , and a SketchUp Team Member group - what are those differences? How can I apply and edit the users in there to be admins/moderators? Not sure what the best approach is for managing.

Not all moderators will be a staff member. FYI

Thanks.

Discourse 1.3 released!

Can we safely upgrade to 1.3 after a rebake mishap?

@erlend_sh wrote:

So, our forum was running on v1.3-beta9 or so, and because of a communication error we set our version to 1.2.4 (i.e. Stable branch) and did a rebake.

(The plan was to do this right before doing an upgrade as soon as 1.3 Stable was available, so that we could move from the Beta branch directly over to the Stable branch).

As is to be expected, this rebake caused some weirdness. Now that v1.3 Stable is out, can we safely apply the latest update and carry on as usual, or should we take some additional precautions?

(I might as well mention that I'm not seeing the v1.3.1 update prompt yet, but hopefully it just hasn't propogated through yet.)

reprocase:

  • insert an image (using an external url) in a post using a link reference.
  • wait for the system to replace the external url with an uploaded copy.
  • the url is replaced by an html <img> tag.

bug: the url in the refence il also replaced with the html <img> tag.

How to upgrade from a beta version to a stable release?

Integrating an address book feature to a private discourse instance. Ideas anyone?

My community organization is look to provide two new services to its neighbors.

First, they are thinking of migrating away from their current list-serve. I want to move them toward the adoption of discourse.

Second, they want to build an online address book -- names, emails, phone numbers, address, and possibly geo-coordinates of houses in neighborhoods.

I want to explore ways that I could provide this information within discourse -- thus avoiding the creation of two different sites requiring people to have two different accounts on two different systems.

I wonder if people have played around with an extension like this or can help me think through (generally) a way to accomplish something like this.

As you can see here avatars are not loading after upgrading to 1.4 beta.

The avatar src seems to be: "/user_avatar/cms.di.unipi.it:8000/wil93/120/6_1.png", and it looks wrong (the domain is repeated).

Why is the dashboard action taking so long?

Reply to selected text not appearing when last para is selected

@fbstj wrote:

OK so this is a particular thing that I tend to do over and over, I double click paragraphs while I'm reading and the reply button doesn't actually show up if I select the last paragraph. Presumably because chrome's selection thing randomly includes bits of the chrome too (it seems to select a little bit after the newline, highlighting at the start of the 'like' heart). I don't know if this is fixable or worth fixing but I thought it should be reported.

Another thing I'd like is a user-option to move the 'quote selected' button to the side, under where the 'reply as linked topic' button is, so that it doesn't keep getting accidentally clicked when I select text while reading.

Plugin gem install error when source is Taobao

Plugin uses gem failed because of a type error. It seems only happens when gem source is Taobao no matter which gems specified or plugin required them.

ERROR: While executing gem ... (TypeError)

The problem is that gem can't be downloaded. However I can manually install the gem by putting the same command which is weird to me.

Hi,

I have 2 discourse instance, both on 1.4beta1. On one I managed to make the GitHub Oauth works but on the other I never managed to do it.

I just tried another time by redoing the process and still it is not working and I have absolutly no idea why. I hope you will be able to help identify the problem.

So here is my configuration:

On discourse:

On our github:

When I try to login with my github account I get this error:

with this url:

https://forum.poppy-project.org/auth/failure?message=redirect_uri_mismatch&origin=https%3A%2F%2Fforum.poppy-project.org%2F&strategy=github

And strong texthere is NOTHING neither in the Discourse logs nor the browser console** ...

For a developper community it is really a shame to not have a github Auth ...
