Mysterious entries in topic_users table

≫ Next: Bug: raw links generate error and require reloading

≪ Previous: SSO - syncing biographical information from Wordpress to discourse

I'm running a Data Explorer query to see which users read a specific post:
-- [params]
-- integer :topic = 0

SELECT *, total_msecs_viewed / (1000 * 60) as mins_read
FROM topic_users
WHERE topic_id = :topic
ORDER BY total_msecs_viewed DESC
The results look plausible, except for a mysterious nonexisting user:

Pasted image1384x337 23.8 KB

This is the result for topic 200. The user id 200 is not used in my installation (I have fewer users).
The same thing is happening for all other topics, there is always an entry for a "user" whose id matches the topic id.

Am I overlooking a very obvious bug in my SQL code? Is this entry really there? Should it be?

Bug: raw links generate error and require reloading

This is an edge case, and maybe one no one cares about, but I was writing a howto about using raw links to be able to see markdown of a post, or copy a post from one place to another. I noticed that if you link to a raw link on the site, the first time you click it, you get the "Oops! That page doesn’t exist or is private." message.

To reproduce:

I check it on try.discourse.org.

I'm trying to make a post via the API which contains an "a" tag, pointing to a .oembed endpoint. Discourse doesn't seem to replace the link with the right content though, until I click the little pencil button, and I see the content preview.

Is there any way to make it happen via the api?

What are user cards?

A user card is what pops up when you click on a user's avatar or username inside of a topic, on a topic page such as Latest, or on a user mention (an @username).

The user card gives a quick view of some of the profile information for that user, and allows everyone a little more room for personalization through their user card background. These backgrounds can even be animated, if allowed on your site (check out @codinghorror's).

What shows up on your user card?

From your profile page, your:

Avatar

Username, name, and title

Last post and join date

Your trust level badge and two of your top badges

And if you've set them, your:

'About me' description (or three lines of it, if yours is rather lengthy)

Location

Website

User card background

User card badge (shows up in the bottom right corner)

Does the user card do anything else?

Yes!

If you click on the avatar or username on someone's user card, it takes you straight to their profile, where you can see more further information about that user like their recent activity, list of badges, and summary page.

There's also a 'Message' button on every user card, as a quick shortcut to sending a PM. And if you're looking at a user card in a topic for someone who has posted more than once, there's a nice filter button with a post count:

user_card_more.png692x487 215 KB

Which, when clicked, gives you a view of the topic with only that user's posts.

A user card will also show if a user has been suspended, should that unfortunately be the case.

Can I add anything else to user cards?

Also yes.

Aside from the normal fiddling you can do with custom CSS, a fairly recent feature addition allows you to add custom fields to the user card, configurable at the admin/customize/user_fields page with the Show on user card? checkbox.

You can also reproduce it on our hosted instance "forum.plentymarkets.com" which has the v1.6.0.beta4 deployed.

I am also using the Topic List Preview Plug-in which seems also to be broken on v1.6.0.beta4.

Change right gutter to vertical timeline + topic controls

One of our targets for 1.6 is to radically revamp the right gutter, per previous discussions.

Pasted image2269x1273 205 KB

More specifically, it will be a vertical scrollbar that better visually represents the "timeline" of discussion, from inception to the current latest post. We can do some clever stuff here representing long pauses in the discussions or periods of intense activity, but I agree with @erlend_sh we should defer that until a future release. For now simply showing

first post date – relative time, but include full year

current visible post date / slider – allows "go/jump" to any post number or date as well

most recent post date

deepest / lowest read position – note the little blue dot, lets you go back to "where you were" if you jump around in the earlier timeline.

… should suffice.

Also, we're adding some topic level controls to the right sidebar as well:

current topic tracking state (short form, glyph only)

reply to topic button

This does mean that what's currently in the right gutter, the incoming and outgoing links must be moved under each post. Let's go back to a mildly edited version of @erlend_sh's iterated mockup:

(the text is not quite right; I suggest 14 linked posts since that's clear that we aren't tracking links across the entire web here, just intra-site links)

We can also bring back distinguishing incoming and outgoing links by showing the directional arrows when expanded:

One caveat: mobile will continue to use the existing progress bar style, so that code should definitely not be removed.

This is a big UI change, but it's the only big UI change we have slated for 1.6. I have personally grown to greatly dislike the way we use the right gutter now, and I feel the entirety of the current right gutter area is vastly underutilized.

We will start working on this in earnest in the next few days.

Any latency for Windows users posting a lot?

i know our community has got some heavy optional features like signatures and auto-play video, but a number of our core users are complaining about latency that seems to get worse after having been logged on for a while in a seesion.

They tell me when they first load the site on their Windows machines, that the site loads fast. But then as they start browsing, liking and posting, the site gets increasingly slower.

Could there be any logical explanation to this? The complaints seem to have started the past month, which cohld have correlated to the latest release, the video plugin or even the additional advertising.

Any suggestions on troubleshooting? I am going to try to find some PCs to check from, but was curious if anyone heard any similar complaints or had thoughts on possible reasons for performance to degrade over time.

My community is based on invitations and I would really like to turn on the feature of inviting friends for my trust level 1 members. I have a lot of members in trust level 1 and its going to take some time before they can get to level 2 to be able to invite their friends. But since no new members are joining these days, less topics are being posted and there's less engagement overall. So my trust level 1 members have also slowly stopping to visit. Am afraid the community will die like this unless I enable my trust level 1 members to invite their friends to their topics. And it a request that's coming in from many users for them to have the ability to invite.

Hi,

We're trying to use Discourse platform from our mobile application by loading it in an iframe.

The users started complaining that the page randomly scrolls to the top, they can't compose messages and so on. I personally saw this issue in 1.3 as well as in the most recent version (just upgraded from git).

Another issue is that on mobile (I am testing on the iphone 5s) when you click the Reply button in always scrolls to the top of the page, but the box for the message appears at the bottom. When you click "Close" link to close that box it also scrolls to the top. So it's hell for users.

The users are very frustrated because of this issue.

Thank you,
Alex

Make location field required

Do not show URLs in profile publicly for TL0 members

Comparing specified location and IP location is a great tool in fighting spam (often the location as specified as west, yet IP is east)

Often spammers signup, put a URL in profile, then make one post to make it look real. Hiding profile links of TL0 users is a nice strategy. However I think this may need to be an admin option for TL1 too (since it is fairly easy to get to that).

Hello guys, there is some problem with italic links when the URL has "(" and ")", example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discourse_(software)

Steps for replay:

Put the link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discourse_(software)
to "Wikipedia Discourse"

Select the "Wikipedia Discouse" link, and clic on "Emphasis" (or Crtl + i)

Check the result.

Final result:
[Wikipedia Discourse](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discourse(software))_

Trying with other link (other case)
Discouse Emphasis

So, I think the problem was the "( )" symbols.
Could you check?

Ok. I can't get email to work with my Discourse install. I've got it setup on a DigitalOcean 2gb Droplet and the domain name is on Namecheap. I was able to do the workaround discribed in this post https://meta.discourse.org/t/activation-email-not-being-sent-not-sure-whats-gone-wrong/32968/10 to gain access to finish setup and prep the site, but I still can't figure out the email controls.

Below I've tried to provide as much info as possible for my setup. I'm hoping someone can find the issue so I can move on. Thanks in advance.

Here is my "app.yml" setup:

I run sudo ./launcher rebuild app whenever I change "app.yml"

Here is my Namecheap DNS record:
issue1.JPG736x552 45.5 KB

Here is my DigitalOcean DNS record:
issue2.JPG1017x1192 91.7 KB

Here is my log file from error when sending test email out of admin panel:
issue4.JPG1121x510 115 KB

I'm using Namecheap private email for SMTP settings.

I can receive emails to hello(at)peer(dot)cafe so I think the Namecheap records are correct. I can run telnet mail.privateemail.com 465 on my DO droplet and am connected. So I'm thinking the problem is either in my "app.yml" file or the DO records. Any thoughts?

I didn't know if I should do something else before it comes through? DO support pointed me to you guys.

Based on what I read in the code the following would be clearer.

The maximum user bounce score before we will stop emailing them. A soft bounce adds 1, a hard bounce adds 2. The bounce score get's reset to zero 30 days after the last bounced email.

At the very least the typo "the they" should be corrected

I would propose a simple (in UI, not implementation ) "Upgrade All" button on the Upgrade screen.
