Gfycat embeds are broken


Specify dimensions of video embed?

Example:

vs gif

Stretching it looks bad, but I like the filesize efficiency of webm (476KB vs 3MB). With images, you can use image tags to override the defaults and specify width/height but I haven't found a way to do it with video (tried video and iframe tags). Also, is there any way to specify loop/autoplay settings? Essentially, I want the simple usability of gif but with the efficiency of webm.

/admin/users/list/regular and /admin/users/list/member show incorrect headings

I'm not sure if this is half-finished work that I've encountered or a bug, but here let me report it as a bug and let you decide.

I found my way to /admin/users/list/regular by way of the user admin page, then clicking on the "Trust Level 3 Requirements" button. There was a button there to "Trust Level 2 Users" which looked interesting so I clicked on it. The resulting page at /admin/users/list/regular showed the heading "Trust Level 2 (Member)" which seemed wrong because of course TL2 is Regular. I then went to /admin/users/list/member to see what was there and saw the title "[en.admin.users.titles.member]" which seems to not have been translated.

These are useful lists to have and I think they should also show up on the user lists as filters across the top alongside active, new etc.

Users at Trust Level 2 (Member)
/admin/users/list/regular

[en.admin.users.titles.member]

Discourse + Meetup integration

We're trying to use Meetup and Discourse together. Meetup, for the event management stuff, and Discourse for the discussions.

However, the transition hasn't been as smooth as we hoped. I think there needs to be a smoother way to migrate meetup members. Of course, meetup doesn't make it easy as their API doesn't allow you to get member emails.

Are there any suggestions on how to do this? Perhaps, by creating a sync bot? A lot of the existing meetup members are still subscribing to the meetup mailing list and I want them to see whenever there is a new topic.

Automated Responses to Flags not Generating Notification

@abarker wrote:

On WTDWTF, we've been getting reports that users are not being notified when a staff members agrees, disagrees, or defers their custom flags. The automated post is being added to the message that's attached to the flag, but the user isn't being notified of this. They don't find out about the new post unless they visit the Messages page in their profile.

If a staff member manually replies in the message attached to the flag, the notification does get properly generated.

Because of another bug that causes the automatic post to not generate if the flag was created by a staff member, this bug requires a non-staff account to reproduce.

Hope this is the right way to file a bug report.

Just upgraded to 1.4.0.beta6 from 1.4.0.beta4 and I'm getting a Javascript error on the admin dashboard page. Everything else seems ok so far.

Customizing Interface

0

@Ziyan wrote:

Hello there. I am new to Discourse and I have been interested in implementing kind of a study group using it. But from specification I am needing to do some customization. I see many posts talk about customization through the Admin interface but I would need some thing more.

The changes I would like to implement would include

  1. Adding a select list for categories & custom html w.r.t. categories
  2. Adding custom fields for user profiles (like department)
  3. Some CSS styling

From what I understand we can do 2 and 3 from the admin side. But I am not very comfortable with the updates sticking in a DB. I like them to be on a solid file.

Questions:

  1. How would we update views / html (I am interested in adding some thing like a dropdown list for categories)
  2. Is there some thing like Deface for view overrides?
  3. If we customize the repo, what would we need to do to update the docker repo as we are interested in using docker for deploy.

Thank in advance.

external_avatar_url field is too short

TLDR: Is it safe for me to change external_avatar_url to a text datatype in the DB?

I'm getting this error message from time to time:

ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid (PG::StringDataRightTruncation: ERROR: value too long for type character varying(255) : UPDATE "single_sign_on_records" SET "external_avatar_url" = $1

I'm using S3 with paperclip on my site to store avatars:

  has_attached_file :profile_picture,
    storage: :s3,
    path: "#{Rails.env}/users/profile_pictures/:id_:style_:filename_:hash",
    hash_secret: 'xxxxxxxxx',
    styles: {
      thumb: "100x100#",
      small: "150x150>",
      medium: "200x200"
    },
    default_url: "missing_profile_picture.png"

(I've replaced the hash secret obviously).

It turns out this is generating surprisingly long URLs.

User.all.collect { |u| u.profile_picture.url.length if u.profile_picture.exists? }.uniq
=> [nil, 196, 197, 195, 147, 260, 259]

I'd rather not have to regenerate all my S3 URLs.

Admin User Dashboard - Mobile Stats

@BCHK wrote:

There are a number of development efforts I'm aware of to create mobile apps for use with Discourse forums. Given these efforts - it would be very helpful to have mobile stats that differentiate between the two methods of access - native apps vs. mobile browser.

Is it possible to add these statistics to the Admin Dashboard? What would the App developers need to do, so that the app accesses/api calls are differentiated from the regular mobile browser calls?

Missing external_id in api-result

@wangerin wrote:

Hi.

I'm trying to pull userinfo from our discourse and combine it with our backend-system, but can't find anything to link those two systems.
I'm pulling discourse-info using http://example.com/admin/users/list/all.json

Login ocours using SSO, so I expected the external_id from sso-creation to be returned via api. Alternativly to mail-adress from creation. but that's not available in api either.

Any idea to get either information out of discourse-api?

Point a docker installation to a private git repo

@IvanShao wrote:

Hi Discouse devs,

We are building a customized discourse using the docker installation, and would like to point to a private repo of ourselves. We are wondering what is the right of doing so, and what would be the best practice of pulling discourse updates in the future.

Right now, I only modified the app.yml configs following instructions here: https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-install-my-customized-repo-of-discourse-on-production-server/23364, but likely because our repo is private, and is on bitbucket instead of github, I am getting errors like "could not read Username for 'https://github.com': No such device or address" while doing ./launcher rebuild app

Someone was asking about Docker on FreeBSD

@eriko wrote:

Up until now it was not possible to run Discourse+Docker on FreeBSD. This is possibly changing with experimental support for Docker on FreeBSD.
https://wiki.freebsd.org/Docker
From the post:

Status

Docker on FreeBSD should be considered experimental. Limitations of the 64bit Linux compatibility subsystem will impact some Linux ABI containers and your testing and feedback is appreciated to help resolve any such issues.

Further Reading

Docker on FreeBSD is genuine Docker and retrieves containers from the official docker.io repository. Consult the official Docker documentation and resources for further assistance.

Mute all categories except x,y,z

@Goosy wrote:

Hi,

I am looking to deploy a multi-language forum and from what I've read around the best would be to have one category for every country/language, with sub categories for each.

Now, I want users to be able to mute everything else except their chosen countries that they want to follow. I've been trying doing this, but the only way I found is to write every category that I want to be muted in the 'muted' field.
Now, for a forum with around 80 categories, from which you only want to follow 2 in the Unread/New section, this is really far from ideal.

So, is there a way a user can specify only one category and exclude the others?

Thanks!

Getting back to square avatars on phone

I've read some of the posts on getting back to square icons and have the css below in play. It works fine on the desktop but is not working on my phones. I've tried every trick I know to refresh chrome on my phone, but the avatars are still round. Is there additional css that I need to add to make my avatars square on the phone?

Thanks
