Font sizes in Discourse css are expressed as em in relation to 14px. So, there are for example multiple rows in the css where font size is 1.143em, which translates to 16px. Personally, I find 14px quite small for most if not all fonts for body text.

The problem is, if you change the base font size all the other sizes no longer conform to nice round numbers. For 16px base font size 1.143em becomes 18.288px. So you have to go trough the css and change font size in dozens of places one by one anyway or risk bad font rendering on some systems. This makes changing the font size pretty painful.

There are only a handful of different font sizes used so mapping them to variables should be pretty straightforward and make changing font (sizes) much easier.

Hello,

I'm making a list of links for a specific topic. It's in the format:

---

Title
link

---

However one of the links keeps on showing a preview. I understand if you put a link on its own line it gets a preview. Is there a way to put the link on its own line without a preview showing?

I was going to upgrade a discourse, and got a 500 in my browser.

It took me a minute to see that the issue was that I wasn't logged in any more. Logging in allowed me to upgrade as expected.

here's the log, and traceback

Hello friends,

I'd like to write some essay's and emphasis other texts with a lot of embedded pictures from Flickr. With 1 TB of free storage, it's my favorite hoster But I've noticed a few issues:

• As mentioned from someone before, there is no way to automatically embed previews with some relevant meta information: Author, date, copyright.

• The image isn't linked with the original source, insted Discourse is downloading a smaller version and is resizing that after clicking on that. That's not bad at all, but I prefer also a link to the source.

• Shortend & privat URLs won't be solved. That's sad, because I'd love to work mobile on my iPad and Flickr is only providing those ones on their App by default.

Any clue how to improve the Flickr - Discourse integration?

I'm using SSO and I'm trying to logout a user by his external_id, which is stored in my database.

The basic idea is that if the user logs out in the app, he logs out on the forum as well. The problem with other approaches is that they don't use the external_id for logging out, instead they use the normal Discourse id (which I can't seem to change).

How can I logout a user with his external_id?

If there's a way to do this by redirecting the user from my app to a discourse logout url on the client, that would be preferable. But I'm also open to using the API.

Hi,

I'm trying to write a basic acceptance test for the poll plugin. And it fails with the strangest error when run with http://localhost:4000/qunit?module=Acceptance%3A%20Poll. The error seems to indicate the context is confused with discourse/test/javascripts/acceptance/ which contains composer-test.js.es6 and a reference to

equal(currentURL(), "/t/internationalization-localization/280",

Any idea what is going on ?

Cheers

There are many forums, discussion places where Two Step Authentication AKA Two Factor Authentication.

Is there any plugins or any thing that we can do to bring the same feature in discourse? My community now has nearly but less than 1000 people. Is it possible?

If yes, do please share it to me.

If it is not there, i request moderators to shift this topic to feature request section

Let me just say I love the simplicity of setting up discourse as a stand-alone installation. But, can anyone help me figure out why I'm not receiving digest emails or notification emails? Again, I've a stand-alone implementation but I hope that doesn't preclude me or members of my community from receiving email notifications. My apologies if this is a simple fix; I am new to discourse.

Also, it'd be great if I could get help with personal messaging.

Thanks!

Hi,

After setting up the vagrant dev environment I'm able to use http://localhost:4000 and it works fine. I can create polls and vote on them. However, when I run

RAILS_ENV=test bundle exec rake db:migrate
RAILS_ENV=test bundle exec rake plugin:spec poll

it succeeds but the poll no longer work in the dev environment, when I try to create and use them manually via http://localhost:4000. As if some leftovers interfered.

What am I doing wrong ?

I'm pretty new to the Discourse administration system, so I've got a question/feature that may/may not exist already...

Is there a way to be notified, either as a profile(blue circle) notification or by email, when a user was last seen?

For example, when Discourse marks me as "Seen just now" on my profile, can other users be notified?

Thanks!

Hey Guys,

I am a rails expert. I am using Official Single-Sign-On for Discourse for integration of my rails app (user-database) with Discourse forum. We are working on a product and using Discourse as our official forum for all the discussion.

So far it has been a great experience and we are liking it very much. Recently I encountered couple of issues or may be limitations in integration.

I am unable to pass Title & Custom Groups from my rails app using SSO. I have looked over all the internet and found that there is no support for these in SSO for now. I looked into the code for discourse and was able to add support for title dynamically but I have a major concern here. Discourse gets updated on daily basis and new versions get released after some time. So will that affect my custom changes? I have not looked much into custom groups since I am not sure if that effort would be worth it.

Are you guys not going to add support for these two? Like Title and Custom Groups. They are important as it would be a tough job to set title or custom groups manually for each user based on their role?

Can you guys help me on this? Or update me if you are planning to add the support since it is very important.

Also if you guys are not planning for it then customizing it at my end would that be a good solution? Will the updates won't break it?

I shall be looking for the help and support soon!! Looking forward to your positive feedback.

Keep doing the great work!

Thanks
