Quick language selection when editing templates, etc

@Sander78 wrote:

When editing texts, templates, etc. (example: /admin/customize/email_templates) you edit the texts in the language you have set your profile to. But on Discourse instances with multiple languages, it's would be nice to have a quick dropdown to select another language.

Even better: have that dropdown for each text (in stead of the whole list).

Is it possible to completely disable trust levels?

I would like to completely remove the Trust system from our forum because we unanimously hate it -- everything about it.

Is there an easy way to do this?

We just want a normal forum where only mods or admins can edit (other member's) posts, etc. Don't want anyone getting additional privs simply because they spent time reading posts, etc. Don't want anyone's privs auto changing -- only manually done by admin(s).

I am hoping it's as easy as deselecting a checkbox like for disabling the badge system (first thing we did).

Please tell me there is a simple way to completely disembowel Trust Levels from Discourse.

Embed Etherpad Lite pads into Discourse

@fuerst wrote:

I created a plugin to embed Etherpad Lite pads into Discourse posts using the Onebox mechanism. Would be glad if you give it a try:

Usage

After installation just insert Etherpad Lite links like https://beta.etherpad.org/p/embed-me-into-discourse into your Discourse posts or comments. The Etherpad will be embedded using the famous and beloved IFRAME tag and is fully operational.

Installation

Read Install a Plugin at meta.discourse.org.

The configuration line you have to add to your container's app.yml file looks like:

- git clone https://github.com/fuerst/embed-etherpad-lite.git

Details

The plugin uses the "Brand new plugin interface" to change URL's like http(s)://domain.tld/p/pad-id into HTML code like <iframe src='http(s)://domain.tld/p/pad-id'></iframe>.

That means it also changes your non-Etherpad URL's which looks just like Etherpad Lite links. Please drop me a note if you got a better idea about how to avoid this.

Is there a link to watch a topic I can add to the email footer?

@mcwumbly wrote:

In the default email footer, there is a link to unsubscribe from a topic, which turns the volume down on a topic from "Watching" or "Tracking" to "Normal" (or from "Normal" to "Muted"), eg:

https://meta.discourse.org/t/duplicate-email-notification/40444/unsubscribe

Is there a similar route/link to set a topic status to "Watching?"

I'd like to experiment with adding a link so users who visit the site infrequently can easily follow a topic after they are mentioned or replied to directly.

I just deployed Meta on a branch using the latest version of Sprockets, sprockets-rails and sass-rails. In order to test out the changes, we'll be bringing DARKNESS back to Meta for the next 3 days.

Do feel free to let us know if you notice anything weird on Meta with regards to the rendering of assets :slight_smile:

I understand Discourse uses highlight.js for code highlighting.
How can I change the styles used (e.g. pick a different colour scheme for "cpp", etc) as demoed on the hjighlight.js site?

Is it possible to run Docker install locally?

@vfortier wrote:

The title basically says it all. I do not have a domain for the moment so I would like to run the Docker install locally.

Why can't I just run the Vagrant install locally as suggested by this post? It's because I want to be able to send posts on my Discourse deployment from another application (in Javascript). As far as I know, in order to do that, I need to enable Cross-Origin Resource Sharing by modifying some settings in app.yml. The problem: the Vagrant install doesn't have an app.yml. (Let me know if I made some false assumptions here).

Also, if you know how I could send posts from my Javascript application to a Vagrant Discourse install, that would also solve my problem :sunglasses:

Note: I don't want to develop Discourse.

Thanks!

Restarting container when internet is down causes discourse to fail

0

@carbo wrote:

It seems that if you have an intranet discourse site, even though it might have internet access, will no longer work if two factors come into play:

  1. Your internet access is down (for whatever reason)
  2. You decide to restart your discourse container during the same period.

Steps to reproduce.

  1. Make a local Discourse install and configure it so that is properly setup
  2. Unplug your network from the internet
  3. Restart your Discourse container ./launcher stop app then ./launcher start app
  4. Try to acces the local Discourse site

After further checking.

The problem is caused by the nginx service not being able to find the host avatars.discourse.org found at line 220 of the discourse.conf file if the server has no internet access when trying to start. Once the internet connection is re-established nginx will start up. For that period of time your Discourse site will remain unusable. A workaround is to set line 220 of discourse.conf to:

proxy_pass https://localhost/;

Immediate query for custom badge that is updated daily

We're adding a custom badge that will update daily (though it doesn't really need to, it's granted to all users created before today).

I'm wondering - when I save the badge will it trigger the initial query or will we need to wait for the "Update Daily" job to trigger?

Improve the invite only option?

@SMT wrote:

Hi,

Public registration is disabled, all new users must be explicitly invited by other members or staff.

So with the default option only users with level one can invite other members? Is there any other way to allow people to sign up for beta?

Like users who have the referral code can only join the forum or allow users to enter their email to request the invite like pinterest did in the past.

Can we add this to discourse? I am really in need of this. It will encorage more people to join the forum.

Poll: Would you like to see Personalized / Customized User Feed for Discourse?

@BCHK wrote:

I believe that as your user base and daily message posting rate in your forum climbs higher than the average user will read in a day, the noise to signal ratio of the forum starts to increase quickly with the result that more active forums see a continual drop-off of engagement and return users (as measured in Daily Active Users / Total Registered Users. Facebook had this very quickly as their message rate climbed, and I think I'm seeing it too.

One solution I think, would be to address it as facebook did with their Edgerank algorithm - to start customizing the discussion feed for each user, so that the topics and people that are of most interest to a user are shown prioritized above those message topics of less interest.

Would you like to see this feature in your forum?

  • Yes - More relevant discussion topics for users is very valuable
  • No, Not interested in this feature

How to find translation for validation message?

0
0

@fantasticfears wrote:

You might wonder where is the translation for messages like:

  • Title has already been used
  • Title is invalid...

Those error messages could show when you create or update something. But the translation is a bit harder to find out. They are generated by Rails.

You can find the general format by searching key errors.format which is %{attribute} %{message}. In the example above, %{attribute} is title and %{message} are generated by errors.messages.has_already_been_used and errors.messages.is_invalid.

Those attributes are translated by keys under activerecord.attributes. For example, when Rails validates topic, if there is error, Rails will look into activerecord.attributes.topic.title. If there isn't a translation, it will fall back to code - Title in this case.

Translation tips

  1. Find a way to present a general sentence by defining errors.format.
  2. Find activerecord.attributes.<model_name>.<attribute_name>. If there isn't one and you want to translate it, submit a pull request where you define such a key on GitHub. (See example pull request below)
  3. Validation message translations are under errors.messages. However, you can use %{attribute} in the translation even it's not appeared in the source language (en). (See example pull request below)

Dev notices

  1. You can delete those dangling validation translation. See the post below and pull request above.
  2. key activerecord might be changed. When adding a new validation message, they also need a attribute here to be translated.
  3. Those error messages appear in two different place which might be confusing.

Someone has an idea how can i rename app.yml to another name and rebuild the container, not losing the data? I actually just want to change the name of the container, so that when i do docker ps i see myCompanyName as name of the container, and not just app?
