What is the default config in Bitnami DigitalOcean install

Hello,
Newbie here :smile:
I'd like to know if the default install by Bitnami on DigitalOcean is recommended by Discourse. And does it configure the server exactly as it is required by Discourse.

Or it is just something that just runs Discourse as the quickest and easiest way possible, and is not recommended for a large community?
Many thanks!

Could I show the best posts in a seperate view like WordPress?

Hello, everyone:

For me, discourse is a good place to create posts and discuss, but it's not so good at showing the posts.
I am wondering if it's possible to show the selected best posts on a separate view, for example WordPress?
I know there is an extension WP-discourse, it seems that it supports to publish the posts on WP to discourse, not the other way.
Or is it possible or easy to create a beautiful post like the top POST on Medium?

Admin "likes" report ignores selected date range

When requesting a likes report from /admin/reports/likes for the date range "01/01/2015" to "31/01/2015"...

The actual results returned are for the "previous 30 days" including today, specifically 2015-09-16 to 2015-10-16.

The JSON response includes:
"start_date":"2015-01-01T00:00:00.000+00:00","end_date":"2015-01-31T00:00:00.000+00:00"

This may be the case for other admin reports, but only "likes" has been tested.

Continuing the discussion from Make Discourse play nice with the Wayback Machine:

Measuring from my own site on a text-only topic, no cache, I'm getting 4.3 MB. At 56k simulated speeds in Chrome dev tools, it churns for 15-20 minutes and times out, less than a quarter of it loaded. (I'm still trying to find out why my site is heavier than meta... ) I have yet to successfully load a page at this speed.

I'm not saying there are lots of dial up folks out there. But there are a few left, by choice or necessity.

Verizon inherited about 2.3 million AOL dial up customers, according to Time magazine. And 3% of Americans still use dial up at home, according to this research group.

On top of that, folks throughout the developing world have limited access speed and data caps - not to mention under-powered hardware. A simpler, lighter interface will open the door to them as well.

Obviously we aren't catering to these folks... but since we already serve up an stripped down HTML version, making it functional will let them participate.


Here's some other big sites that present a functional stripped down version.

Facebook now has "Facebook Lite": http://techcrunch.com/2015/06/04/download-facebook-lite/

Gmail has basic HTML: https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=html

Twitter with javascript disabled redirects to https://mobile.twitter.com, and is functional.

Google Search with javascript disabled redirects to an older but functional version (and slims down from 362kb to 62kb).

How to exclude category from "new" top-menu and category page

Hello All,

I am embedding discourse for comments to my website and this is automatically created on the Forum.

Is there a way for me to hide new comments from the "new" top-menu? I have already clicked on "Suppress this category from the homepage." which works for other top-menus except the "new" top-menu

I have also tried new,-Comments on the settings page and this is not working.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Blurry text while hovering in Chrome

Here on meta (as well as on other Discourse-powered forums) I see that the text in post bodies gets a little bit blurry when I hover my mouse over them or while I'm scrolling through a page. After a short while the text is once again crisp, but my eyes have yet to re-adjust to it. It looks like the issue is related to this one.

The fading goes away when I add the following bit of CSS to .topic-body .regular using the element inspector:

-webkit-backface-visibility: hidden;
-webkit-transform: translateZ(0) scale(1.0, 1.0);
transform: translateZ(0);

FWIW: I am using Chrome 46.0.2490.71 m (64-bit) on a 64 bit installation of Windows 10 Enterprise, using up-to-date nVidia graphics drivers. The idea of changing things in Windows' registry does not really appeal to me, as I am happy about how the fonts look in other applications such as Word, or mIRC.

User directory only viewable when logged in

@raw wrote:

I like the user directory page a lot. I don't particularly like that anyone can pull a list of all of the users, although I appreciate the bot-blocking. In addition to the setting to enable the user directory, I would like to request a setting to have that page only visible to logged-in users. The option of minimum trust-level to see the directory list would be frosting.

Keep up the great work guys...discourse is really beautiful.

About the idea: IDENTITY = EMAIL

Continuing the discussion from Why e-mail validation when using OpenIDs?:

I have read a few posts here like the one I quoted where @codinghorror says that "IDENTITY = EMAIL".

I'm not really sure about that myself though so I started a new topic to talk about that idea.

Here are a few points that make me question that idea:
1. In Discourse, you have an email address and a user name.
In fact you can tag someone by their user name.
You can't do that with their email.
2. Email is just an address tied to a mailbox similar to regular mail.
People don't usually associate someone's identity with their street address.
Just like a street address mailbox is shared by all that live on the street address, email addresses are not a one to one relationship with a mailbox.
3. Discourse doesn't show a user's email address publicly.
So unless you are saying the person's identity is private.
