Reply by Email not working for Private Messages

I'm a little stumped as to how to begin debugging this... The reply by mail feature is working wonderfully for public topics (at least I've had 100% success with it), but when attempting to use it for a private message "topic", I can't get a single message to post.

The emails are being received by the reply address, and seem to be formatted correctly. Is there anything within my control that would allow it to work for public topics but not private topics? Is this a known bug? Any guidance would be appreciated.

One-boxes no longer link to original topic in subfolder installs

@TechnoBear wrote:

I'm posting this as a :bug: because I'm sure it's a change in behaviour following a recent upgrade (related to the timeline changes), and it seems incorrect to me. If this is indeed the intended behaviour, then please make this a feature request.

Previously, if I linked to a post in another topic, a link to that topic appeared in the gutter beside my post and, IIRC, the one-box also linked to the post in question. A link back to my new topic would also appear beside the quoted post.

Now, if I link to a post in another topic, there is no link from the one-box (unless the link is to the first post) and no link below my post. A link back to the new topic does appear below the post linked to. So the problem is that there is no longer any way to visit the linked post. As we quite often want to link to similar issues in other topics, it's a real loss of functionality for us.

The issue is related to this:

and as mentioned in that topic:

Spot the difference in those one-boxes. That's bizarre, because in preview the second one was missing the link, which is what is happening on our forum since the upgrade.

While the link to the topic does appear in the topic summary drop-down, it's neither practical nor intuitive to scroll back to the first post in order to follow a link made in post #30, for example.

How to integrate a stronger markdown editor other than the basic one

This markdown editor integrated in Discourse is not strong enough.
You see, we cannot write tables easily, cannot write latex formulas easily.

Look at the editor of www.zhihu.com, a famous Chinese website. You can write latex formulas, can upload videos. And for Chinese editors, there're often 2 spaces before every paragraph. But it would be recognized as codes.

How can we integrate another Markdown Editor for Discourse?

I know the markdown editor

User able to post exceeding maximum length restrictions

Filing this as a bug, feel free to change to support if not the case.

Over at Stonehearth we had a user post a log directly as text in the editor, and was able to submit it. The post exceeds the maximum length allowed significantly, as I tried to edit the post to surround the log in a code block but was not allowed. The post in question was originally here and moved to here where I converted it to a Pastebin link.

The error received stated:

Body is limited to 32000 characters; you entered 2459079.

If it helps troubleshoot, this post likely went through the approval queue as the user is new and we currently have the first 2 posts from each user go into the queue.

How to redefine method in Ember Component?

I need to modify method _dock in discourse/components/topic-progress.js.es6 file from my plugin.
What is the syntax of modifying this component? So far I came to this construction, but it doesn't work:

import topicProgress from 'discourse/components/topic-progress';
Ember.Component.reopen({
  _dock: function() {
    console.log("=========")
    this._super();
    console.log("=========")
  }

How can I add a custom class to every 2nd message?

@ziptofaf wrote:

Okey, there's a huge chance I am just very stupid and can't see the obvious but I am wondering on how to write a plugin/extension that will simply add one extra class to every 2nd .topic-body. Reason for why I need it is to add a different background color for them (and doing it via sheer CSS is pretty hard considering they are all in separate rows etc). So I can get to this result:

Right now I am using a timer based approach that I've seen here but it's actually not firing every time, once in a while it fails to do so after loading next batch of posts. Which annoys me a lot.

So I've come to a conclusion that I need to either understand when exactly does Discourse loads new messages (aka which event causes it) or that it should be done server-side, at the render time. However I am at a loss on how to implement it, it seems I am really lacking experience with AJAX heavy development. Any advice or at least a link to some resources that could help me here would be awesome

Defining Trust By An External API?

0

@Michael_Ball wrote:

Hello,

We're working on setting up an discourse forum for a social networking type site. We would like to be able to define (or at least add as a parameter) Trust levels based on external data, like "Number of Projects Shared" through our site.

Assuming we have an API to get the data we want, is there any way to accomplish this?

If not, would a plugin have the capability to do this? I only briefly explored this option, and I couldn't find a definite answer.

Thanks!

Font awesome icon breaks plugin

@auryn_macmillan wrote:

I've installed a couple of OAuth2 plugins, and noticed that they all seem to use a bit of an ugly hack in order to place the an icon on their relative login button. Being the genius that I am, I figured I'd go ahead and replace it with a font awesome icon, then relish in the glory of my accomplishment. Much to my dismay, this seems to break discourse before the build is complete.

The minor changes to plugin.rb are shown below, any insight as to why it breaks and if there is a clean workaround would be greatly appreciated.

Original, will compile:

register_css <<CSS

  .btn-social.slack {
    background: #08c;
    text-indent: 19px;
  }

  .btn-social.slack:before {
    content: "";
    position: absolute;
    height: 18px;
    width: 18px;
    margin-left: -22px;
    margin-top: 1px;
    background-image: url('data:image/png;base64,[encoded image removed to save space]');
  }

CSS

My edit, will not compile:

register_css <<CSS

  .btn-social.slack {
    background: #08c;
    text-indent: 19px;
  }

  .btn-social.slack:before {
    content: "\f198";
  }

The reason I'd like to use the font awesome icons instead is to avoid this buggy scrolling behaviour:

Currently we are discourse on an ec2 instance and elasticache redis instance deploying with docker. Is there anyway of running discourse without redis? We are getting charged quite highly for it especially because we need a staging and live instance running most of the time.

How can I remove post history?

@bek wrote:

Hi there!

I just want to know how can I remove post history? For example my post have 6 revision. But I want to remove 5 of them. They waste my disk usage. OK, I know maybe it is not too much. But if you think about total 10k post with 6 revision that makes 60k. Depends to your editing, it could be waste too much disk for sure. Actually it is not important either it waste too much disk or not. We should be able to delete post revisions anyway in my opinion.

Thoughts?

Constant 500, cpu idle

@whza wrote:

hello!

I recently discovered discourse and decided pretty much soon to switch to it from previously phpbb.

Now I successfully installed it and created an admin user (with a different username than given in the phpbb installation) and everything was up and running fine until that point.

Then I dumped my phpbb databases, configured the connection, and used the import script as described. With about 750 posts per minute the import was done in about 10 hours. It is a previous forum with 350 000+ postings.

Fine so far. Stopped 'import' and started 'app'...and all I am getting is error 500, like from nginx log:

"-" 500 323 "-" 0.123 0.123 "-"

nothing more. The CPU is idle, error.log is not being populated, and I have no idea what's going on.
Any ideas on this, or where to look for possible issues?

The host is for discourse only, nothing else is running there. Linux 3.16, debian jessie 100% fresh install.

Reassigning Discourse Category on Wordpress Published Article

@jamesmarkcook wrote:

I was wondering if this is possible at the moment, because if it is I may have missed something?

I needed to change an article's Discourse category so I assumed selecting the dropdown for a different category and hitting the update button would re-assign it.

This didn't happen. The only way I could fix it was by deleting a row in the DB and then re-assigning it.

Would this functionality be difficult to implement? Maybe a box that says 'Re-assign category' that could be ticked in the Discourse pane on each post would work. It then overwrites the Discourse category ID in the Wordpress DB.

I understand comments wouldn't be carried over, but as a simplistic option this would be a nice to have :smiley:

Trust level changes while automatic groups do not change

Continuing the discussion from Change all exsisting users to trust level 2:

I used the above lines to change the trust level of bulk users, and it worked. So now all of the users in our forum are let's say tl0.

  1. but when I check the automatic groups, I see users are still in trust_level_2.
    how can i change trust level in bulk?

  2. also some of the users got locked in term of trust level. I mean when i go to that user in admin panel, I see the trust level is locked.
    what's happening here? and why do they get locked?
