Follow and unfollow rather than watching, tracking, normal, mute

In our forum, we got the feedback that there are two many levels to follow a topic or a category.

I want to hide or remove the watching mode or tracking category. but there is no css class to these items.

Is there any other way to remove these extras?

another related problem is the untranslatable strings in the drop down menu of watching category and tags, which is shown something like this:

as these strings shown to be not-translatable, it'd be better to hide them. any idea how?

Confusion about the email server before installing discourse

Hello Discourse Community,

I have been trying to set up discourse and so far I have been unable to do so. I am not a computer person. I tried using Mailgun AND Sparkpost. I have been unable to verify my sending domains. Are there links and instructions i could follow as my search in the forums has been inconclusive. I install discourse properly all the way but I wasn't able to send my first email to confirm my admin email. I have deleted the droplet and started again several times.

My domain is in Google Domains, and I do not currently have a host but wanted to use Digital Ocean. I think that once I get the email server up and running I can absolutely install it as its not a big deal to me. I am just unable to get the email server up and running. In order to access the Google Admin account I need to use G-Suite? I tried using G-Suite as it gives me an email but I am unsure if this is what I needed to do. I suspect the problem lies with properly connecting the Google Domains DNS to the Sparkpost/Mailgun server. Furthermore I couldnt confirm my sending domain so it has to be this right?

At this point I am unsure what needs to be done since I have done some many different things. Can someone ELi5 this whole process? I have undone everything thus far to be able to start again from scratch to make sure that i do not miss any steps.

:smiley: thank you for your time to help out a noob.

The forum is down and when I try to upgrade docker I get this error:

./launcher rebuild app doesn't work, as it was what made the forum go down in the first place (maybe a bad upgrade procedure?). I'm afraid the docker install is corrupted somehow and the data is lost. I have regular backups, but I still don't want to lose what I had.

FontAwesome Redirect

When users log in to my Discourse installation, they are being redirected to a literal "my-host.com". The site's source shows the following.

Personal Site Source

<style>
  @font-face {
    font-family: 'FontAwesome';
    src: url('/assets/fontawesome-webfont-ff82aeed6b9bb6701696c84d1b223d2e682eb78c89117a438ce6cfea8c498995.woff2?https://my-host.com&amp;2&v=4.5.0') format('woff2'),
         url('/assets/fontawesome-webfont-c812ddc9e475d3e65d68a6b3b589ce598a2a5babb7afc55477d59215c4a38a40.woff?https://my-host.com&amp;2&v=4.5.0') format('woff');
  }
</style>

I notice that meta.discourse.org's reads as follows.

Meta Discourse Site Source

<style>
  @font-face {
    font-family: 'FontAwesome';
    src: url('https://cdn-enterprise.discourse.org/meta/assets/fontawesome-webfont-ff82aeed6b9bb6701696c84d1b223d2e682eb78c89117a438ce6cfea8c498995.woff2?https://meta.discourse.org&amp;2&v=4.5.0') format('woff2'),
         url('https://cdn-enterprise.discourse.org/meta/assets/fontawesome-webfont-c812ddc9e475d3e65d68a6b3b589ce598a2a5babb7afc55477d59215c4a38a40.woff?https://meta.discourse.org&amp;2&v=4.5.0') format('woff');
  }
</style>

At first I thought I was looking at a security breach, but my guess would be a setting isn't properly set somewhere. My site loads on the domain it is supposed to and the docker container reports as follows for its hostname.

root@host-app:/# cat /etc/hostname
host-app

Looking over the admin's backend I am not seeing a setting referencing my-host.com. Production logs are showing redirects for the logins to the site. Is there a setting that is perhaps missing in my app.yml or something I'm not seeing in the backend?

Discourse installed, E-Mail problems

@zeitlings wrote:

Hey,
I know the title sounds generic, but please bare with me.

I've gotten myself into a confusing net of different providers. What do I mean?
First I've registered a domain and shared hosting with eleven2. (I realize that discourse will be impossible to install on this, but maybe we can make use of this later on).

  • I've registered a domain and only a domain with namecheap, well, because it's cheap.
  • I've registered for AWS EC2, launched an instance (Ubuntu 16.04) and followed the installation guide for discourse.
  • Sure enough, I need an E-Mail provider. I went with sparkpost. In hindsight, Mailgun might've been better as was suggested here in this forum.
  • I now want to connect the namecheap domain with sparkpost. This hasn't been successful. Maybe I have to wait the 24-48 hours.
    However, discourse is supposed to be running on a subdomain: discourse.ndomain.co. As far as I know, I cannot create an email address with a subdomain with namecheap when only hosting the domain.
    What is suggested by sparkpost is, that I have to register the subdomain where I want to send emails from: discourse.ndomain.co and hence abuse@discourse.ndomain.co. Namecheap seems to make this impossible. Or this contingent? Could I just register with the actual domain: ndomain.co. (This may already be a major point of my confusion)

The discourse installation also requires the hostdomain, which I've entered as discourse.ndomain.com.

However, the whole thing is launched in an AWS EC2 instance.

I don't know how to tie the threads together. I'm lost in a web of errors and dead ends.
Maybe I could just utilize the domain registered with eleven2? (At least I'd have some cPanel options there).
So I would install discourse, link it to abuse@edomain.com (eleven2's domain) and still have the namecheap DNS point at the AWS EC2 instance? (which works; it's just the E-Mail issue)

This is confusing, My explication is confusing, too. Forgive me. Maybe you can hit me over the head with a stop sign and point out a different route I could try to get discourse running.

What I want is this: Make discourse accessible under subdomain.ndomain.co, running on the AWS EC2 instance with emails distributed via sparkpost (or mailgun, if switching is recommended).

I'm trying to set this up for an open source, nonprofit project. There's no money going to come back in, which is why I want to keep the costs as low as possible. Else I might've gone with digital ocean right off the bat~

Upgraded last night and login button no longer works

I have an urgent issue. I did the most recent upgrade last night and discovered this morning that the login button is no longer working. I can't even log in as the admin to disable plugins, etc.

I'm still fairly new to Discourse, so I went to the console and did a "./launcher rebuild app" and it rebuilt, but still no luck.

Is there a backdoor way to the login page? When I press the login button, the page just appears to refresh.

Our site is at http://indierecordingdepot.com

Thanks in advance for ANY help!!

Admin Configuration for Rate Limit

I would like to suggest extraction of hard-coded values on Rate Limit by IP to a configurable preference on Admin Panel.

I'm a teacher and I'm facing issues regarding login, because all my students share the same IP address and in our classes, we all get locked out of discourse due to Rate limiting.

At the moment, I changed the hard-coded values multiplying them 10 times:

@erlend_sh, suggested me to create a feature topic here.

Limit number of images uploaded by user per day, wil TL multipliers

We currently can limit number of posts, likes and topics per user depending on their trust level.

Because disk volume is an expensive resource for huge but non-profitable communities, please add settings to control the number of images one can upload daily, depending on their trust level.

In our community, I found out that some users submit too many similar images, which just eat space and add no value to their posts compared to if there were fewer images. An example would be 20x images when 3-4 images would be absolutely enough.

If a YouTube video in a post is paused or finished playing and you scroll up or down the page enough to load new posts, the aforementioned video will start playing automatically.

  1. Load the post in the page above

  4. Scroll up the page until the browser loads in new comments
  5. The videos will autoplay without any interaction

The save button is concealed when trying to edit a post:

Think it's been like this for a while and I work around by hitting "Done" on the keyboard then clicking the button. I worry that new users may not know to do this.
