Can you create both public & members only worlds?

Can you set Discourse up so that some topics or categories can only been seen by members, while others can be seen by visitors as well? I ask because I could see a application were you have a club that wants to have some of the discussions be internal only.

In fact... is there a concert of a "role" that you can assign people to? This would be an extension of the prior part of the question, where you might have a trustee group that needed to have discussions that not even all members should be privy to.

Cheers!

Can there be a global setting to delete posts & responses in a set time?

Hey Folks, thanks for yesterdays responses. I've been looking at other tools including; Slack, Discord, Gitter, tlk.io, and a number of others, all of which have sticking points. I understand you have a $100 install option with ongoing server charges of like $10 a months, which seems a reasonable cost for someone that wants to run a community.

So... Can Discourse be set to delete all entries within a set time period, like 24 hours or 1 week?

It might sound strange, but I'm thinking of using Discourse as a chat like replacement. I feel that chatting online should be more like chatting in real life, in that, in real life, you don't have the ability to scroll back into logs. Chat is a more real time ethereal experience. Hence, I have a great desire to find a way to not build up a giant database of past material, but would like to set things the delete on an automatically, rolling basis per some time period that I will experiment with between 24 hours and 8 days.

Can Discourse do this?

Cheers!

For some reason both Login/Sign up modals are appearing empty when clicked.

The issue is consistent across browsers and devices.

I have not edited any core files.
No errors in browser console.
I have stop/restarted app and then did a rebuild - no change.
Turned of/on CDN - no change.

Discourse is located at: https://meta.csatuni.org

Anybody have ideas ?

I'd like to be able to add a background image/color to the /login and /signup pages (when authentication required setting is enabled).

There is a lot of unused white-space which, adding image would at least help tone down the starkness a little.

Appreciate any pointers.

Login required + internal href in global notice causes hang

@kuyashi wrote:

When a href link to an internal page is inserted into the global notice setting, example:

CS @Uni - currently only open to 2BCT students in NUI Galway. It will be student run so if you'd like to help, get
<a href= "https://meta.csatuni.org/users/kuyashi/summary">
Get in touch!
</a>

..whilst login required setting is enabled, it causes Discourse to hang.

Could we enforce a re-direct to /login as is the current case (for login/sign up buttons) if any other link is clicked. ?

Also, is having a site setting whereby global notice can be displayed/not displayed whilst login required is enabled/disabled a possibility ?

EDIT This behaviour also occurs when going to /about URL when login is required .

Insert ads at any place

The Discourse Ad Plugin propose to place ads in fixed places on the site. My customer want to place these ads other places, to make advertising look nicer in his opinion. As far as I understood I can insert html elements only at Plugin Outlet Locations.

Is there any other possibility to place html elements at any desired place?

First option came to my mind is to fork the Discourse and place plugin outlet at desired places, also add features to Ad Plugin and deliver to customer all that as a solution.

I have my very own GitHub project under the terms of General Public License version 3. I am willing to post it in App Store (Google Play, ...) later, and I am concerned about the "GPL Trap", that could prevent doing that.
By "GPL Trap" I mean the situation with VLC and App Store.

I am not a lawyer by myself, but a software developer. Am I allowed to use your CLA as a base for mine?

Installing on Kubernetes

I'd like to install Discourse on our Kubernetes cluster. Kubernetes does not use the docker command to deploy images, so I'd need to build a Discourse image locally, push it to our private Docker registry, and then have Kubernetes pull the image from there. This is how we deploy other Docker-based software.

Can I do this by using ./launcher bootstrap locally, then pushing the built image to our registry? Are there likely to be any problems from this approach? How would upgrading work in this case? (Kubernetes container instances can be destroyed at any time, so to upgrade, we'd want to build a new image and re-deploy, which Kubernetes lets us do without downtime.)

I understand I'll need to provide settings for database (via environment variables), volume mounts for storage, etc. We plan to use our existing redundant Redis, PostgreSQL and GlusterFS services for this, like we do with other Docker applications.

Hello guys, so for about a week now I've been having this issue when I try to log in to any of the discourse forums I am apart of. The issue is that when I sign into my account, it first says "Authentication is complete, close tab to continue" and then once I refresh it, it then says "Error authorising your account.

Video below can explain it all.

SSO settings - integration between Wordpress and Discourse using WP plugin

@Nick_Putman wrote:

I am using the Wordpress Discourse Plugin and have SSO enabled. There are a few aspects to this integration that I am unsure about.

  • I have all of the settings for SSO overriding local settings, except for avatar, as I like the default avatars in discourse. I would however like users to be able to set their own avatar, and I am imagining that the only way to do this now would be via discourse. If so, is there a way of any changes to the avatar in discourse being synched back to Wordpress?

  • Can user account deletions be synchronised between discourse and Wordpress?

  • Is there any way of including a link on the discourse profile preferences page to the user's profile settings page in Wordpress?

There may be other questions relating to integration, but this is what strikes me for now.

Seeding a new forum by creating users and content

Hi there

Discourse looks amazing. Wow! A big change from my old days using phpbb.

In the past, admittedly a long time ago now, I've had greater success starting new forums by initially seeding some content. A little social proof does wonders for engagement levels!

Would love to know whether it is possible to seed a new discourse forum. What I'd like to do is to create say 200 user accounts and roughly 1000 topics and replies before launching.

Is it possible to do this without having either 200 email addresses or 200 social accounts?

I'd like to add these users from the admin panel and log in to them occasionally to respond to new users.

Many thanks

Joe

Ruby gem API POST errors (update_avatar)

Hello,

I'm having some trouble working with the API. Specifically the client.update_avatar command.

Code kinda looks like this:

client = DiscourseApi::Client.new("#{APIHOST}")
client.api_key = APIKEY
client.api_username = APIUSER
puts client.categories

and that all works

a few lines later, this statement does not work:

puts client.update_avatar(username: myuser, url: "https://someurl")

The failure I'm getting is:

/var/lib/gems/2.3.0/gems/discourse_api-0.10.1/lib/discourse_api/client.rb:79:in `post': {"failed"=>"FAILED"} (DiscourseApi::Error)

        from ./forum_auto_permissions.rb:82:in `<main>'

I'm a bit stuck. This piece of code worked last Oct/Nov when I did a proof of concept on the software. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

ps. I'm using the generic Oauth2 plugin if that matters. It works perfectly.
