Absolute Numbers in Polls
@lightyear wrote:
Heyah,
I remember there was a great topic once explaining the usage of the poll-plugin, but even after searching the forum for 15min I can find it (found a reference to it, that leads to a 404 though). So in case that is already implemented, please let me know how to activate it and move this out of this section
.
Love the polls. We are using it internally to gauge interest and make participation easier. It also acts as a replacement for doodle. One thing we are using it for is to easily pre-organise events, for e.g. asking who's gonna come and what food they want (and having emoji in it, makes it awesome):
![]()
However, the "relative" counts are really irrelevant in this case for us. So when looking at the results, to figure out how much pizza/sushi to order, I have to make the reverse calculation. It'd be great, if I could configure the poll to use absolute instead of relative numbers on a case-to-case-basis.

Flag fixed for regular upgrade
@Aernout wrote:
Hi all,
If a member level 2 has past the flag requirements to promote to regular, level 3 for example.. Are the flags blocking the promotion fixed or do they "expire" after a certain time so the member is eligible for promotion later on??

How do you make your own forum that is powered by Discourse?

I've wanted to make a forum for a future server I plan to make, or something along the line of that, and I've wondered: How do I make a forum that is powered by Discourse? I have seen DGPvP make one, how do I make one?

What are Flags and how do they work?
@erlend_sh wrote:
Flagging is an in-built moderation measure in Discourse, intended to dissuade bad behavior and spam, as well as to promote civilised discourse. If you want to raise an issue about a post without derailing the topic at hand, the best course of action is usually to flag it.
By default, clicking the flag button will present a user with the following options:
It's Off-Topic
This post is not relevant to the current discussion as defined by the title and first post, and should probably be moved elsewhere.It's Inappropriate
This post contains content that a reasonable person would consider offensive, abusive, or a violation of our community guidelines.It's Spam
This post is an advertisement. It is not useful or relevant to the current topic, but promotional in nature.Message @codinghorror
This post contains something I want to talk to this person directly and privately about. Does not cast a flag.Something Else
This post requires moderator attention for another reason not listed above.Marking a post as Off-Topic, Inappropriate or Spam will trigger a moderator notification so moderators may review the issue in their flag queue (doc pending). Furthermore, this also "casts a flag" on the post, which has other consequences:
- A user with 5 "agreed" flags can not reach TL 3.
- A post with 3 flags will be automatically hidden.
- A new (TL0) user whose post is flagged as spam 3 times from 3 different users will have all their posts hidden as a result. (TODO: Should probably include inappropriate too)
- If after 48 hours a flag is still in the flag queue without any action taken, an automatic mail will go out to contact_email.
- A topic with 12 unresolved flags from at least 5 different users will be automatically closed until the moderators can intervene.

Youtube embed doesn't work
@Karneasy wrote:
Hi All,
Youtube embedding has stopped working for me, when you paste the youtube link, it shows in the preview, then when you click post it instantly disappears. What do I need to do to help analyse the issue? I can get you logs or whatever, I just don't know where to look.
Thanks

Quick access to bookmarks and messages on user menu
@ky_metro wrote:
Using the new profile menu on mobile, I notice that clicking any of these buttons
![]()
shows basically the same result - the top of the user profile page, which only has a navigation menu. You have to scroll down a lot to actually see what you came for.
Instead of that, why not show a short list of what you clicked on, right in the menu?

What are Mentions?
@erlend_sh wrote:
If you want to get a specific user's attention, the best way to do that is usually with a "mention", a concept popularised by social media sites like Twitter.
To mention a user in Discourse, you start by typing the
@character immediately followed by the first letters of that someone's username. If you're posting in an existing topic, Discourse will intelligently push active topic participants to the top of the auto-completion list.ANIMATED PIC INCOMING

Difference between Archived and Closed
@RabidFX wrote:
I hope this question is not as stupid as I fear it may be, but I found no post here about the difference between "Archived" and "Closed".
From what I can see, both moderation options add a lock to the title, and makes it impossible to reply to a topic.
What is the difference, both technically and in terms of perception by the user?

Modify "system" file
@jmamazo wrote:
Hello guys
I manged to modify the file discourse/app/controllers/directory_items_controller.rb
So now people who have more that 5 posts read are shown in the directory.To manage this I entered the container and modified the file there.
This is not a good solution since changes are lost after updates.is it possible to do this with a plugin, I could not find any info regarding this.
All I need is to replace that file or apply a patch.
Any input is welcome.

Sort Search Term by Most Recent
@AlexAB wrote:
So when I search on our forums, it doesn't order the search results in any particular order it seems. Ideally, I would like all the MOST RECENT/Newest items mentioning my search term to appear first. Is there any way to do this? See the screen grab below on old posts that show up first in my search. Thanks!

"show filter by tag" shows private tags, doesn't filter tags available by category
@tobiaseigen wrote:
I was pleased to come across the "show filter by tag" admin setting today and tried it out.
Unfortunately it displays private tags, or tags that are only being used for private categories whether or not the user has access to the private categories. This is only going to sadden and frustrate users who might click on them and find no topics.
It also (counter-intuitively, I think) doesn't filter the tags available by the category you are in. This is related to an older discussion from Filter topic with specific tag inside single category.

No topic title on posts.json?
@flameens wrote:
Hi there, I'm working on a way to consume the posts.json file to read the latest posts on a Wordpress widget, kind of like the Polygon forum widget (example follows):
However, I noticed that posts.json doesn't include the full topic title, just the id and slug. Would you consider adding that?

When a subcategory is moved to a different parent category, the previous URL should redirect to the new one
@SpeckoftheCosmos wrote:
I am wanting to create a new top-level category and move some of the subcategories in another that is overburdened to that new top-level category. But if I change the parent category of any of those sub-categories, all my links are broken and I have to go back everywhere and change them.
I saw that a nginx solution was suggested. Should I use that? If so can someone point me to the best way to do that? Is the default docker droplet on digitalocean an nginx server? I'm a little confused on what's actually serving the discourse install.
Thanks

Global pinned topics
@charleswalter wrote:
Not sure if I'm missing something. I tried pinning a topic globally, but I don't see it appear at the top of any other categories.
Does the topic need to live in a particular category for it to appear as pinned globally?
Looking forward to seeing how it works. Does it take you to the topic within the category in which it was posted?

Web Crawler Activity - Up Sharply - Why?

We had a huge jump in our web crawler activity today - and I was wondering if anyone else had experienced this and had any ideas on why this would happen? Seems like a lot of resources for a single activity. Is there a separate Robot.txt file for the forums?
