When I upload a background image to a category the image uploads fine and appears in the category setting page however when viewing the category the link to the URL get munged into a URL that doesn't exist. eg:

https://cdn.example.com/origin//<bucket>.s3.amazonaws.com/s3/original/1X/43f2764bab2004bd4b32bba411e4d9af97c964ff.jpeg

When it should just be:

https://cdn.example.com/s3/original/1X/43f2764bab2004bd4b32bba411e4d9af97c964ff.jpeg

For context I am using S3 for uploads and an S3 CDN. I am on Discourse version v1.8.0.beta12 +89.

Steps to re produce

1. Upload a category image
2. View catgory with browser console open
3. See 404 appear with weird URL path

The educational messages that appears on the right when you open a new topic are very useful for new users but they have become intrusive for power users.

Please, note that I'm not talking about those kind of educational messages that are specific to new users

I'm reffering to the other messages, for example "By mentioning @your-team, you are about to notify xx people – are you sure?" , the dominating topic advice and the other similar advices.

As I said above I want disable those kind of messages only for the users that have reached at least the TL3 because it is assumed that these "rules" have already learned (and if they "break" the rules it is for a good reason).

In my case for example, I often close the educational messages (in my forum too) only to see the primary advice (I think the most important) that say "Your topic is similar to..." so I can see if other users have already posted something similar or not.

PS. I don't know the technical name used for those messages that's why I call them "educational", please edit the title with their real name if they have one.

The topics listed on the page /u/{user}/activity/assigned for non-authenticated / users without "staff" are incorrect / shouldn't be displayed.

Steps to reproduce

• Ensure discourse-assign plugin is installed / active.
• Set "assigns public" (Allow general public to see topic assignments) to "false"
• Ensure two public test topics exist (although this is not specifically required it helps in understanding what might be displayed).
  1. one topic with a the user "johnsmith" assigned
  2. one topic with no users assigned
• Visit /u/johnsmith/activity/assigned as an unauthenticated user

Expected results

• No topics listed / an error indicating access is denied
  • the same as visiting a protected page - i.e. indicate you may need to be logged in.

Actual results

• All public topics listed
  • at least these don't seem to be related to the "assigned" user.

Hello,

Just for my own curiosity:

I was trying to find it out, in Discourse blog and meta, what does Discourse team use every day?

I mean in the context of team organization and communication, do you use stuff like Slack/mattermost? IRC? Or a project management tool? Github social tools?

Or you try to use only Discourse as much as possible?

Thanks

right now my code looks like:

    secret = "ilovetomcruise"
    sso = SingleSignOn.parse(request.query_string, secret)

    sso.name = current_user.name # this is a custom method on the User class
    sso.username = current_user.name
    sso.external_id = current_user.id
    @user_id = current_user.id
    sso.avatar_url = current_user.photo
    sso.sso_secret = secret
    sso.avatar_force_update = true

    redirect_to sso.to_url("https://forum.farangsociety.com/session/sso_login")
  end
end

How do I create an ENV['something_here'] with heroku so I do not show the secret in my code? thanks.

I am trying a pull all topics into an elasticsearch instance to enable them to be searchable from our main website.

One issue I have is I keep hitting a rate limit that responds with an empty string. I haveset up an interval to request a topic as little as once a second, but I still hit a rate limiter.

Is there an endpoint that would give me a page of topics in the same detail as /t/{topic.id}.json, maybe something to paginate through? I am upwards of 5000 single topic calls, and I haven't even finished one category yet.

I've noticed that when I try to look at the pending invites list or the redeemed invites list, Discourse shows the correct number of invites, but then below that line, it says there are no invites. The numbers look correct. But shouldn't it list the pending and redeemed invites when I click on these?

Small images don't show metadata on hover because they do not lightbox, that is, the entire image fits in the post.

The behavior feels slightly inconsistent at least, since multiple images on the same post offer metadata on hovering or not depending on whether they are small or large, but for the reader at this point there's no distinction between such images because they're all the same size. The behavior feels arbitrary.

I'd suggest showing at least the details on hovering, irrespective of the image size. Then perhaps not expanding for those which are small.

In 2012, Jeff' wrote that he thought "threaded discussion is ultimately too complex to survive on the public Internet."

Since it's been nearly another 6 years, I was wondering if he still saw flat threads as the wave of the future, considering threaded conversations continue to be used by the largest and fastest growing social sites(Facebook, Imgur, Reddit)?

Given the apparent acceptance, perhaps even preference, of threaded design by these hundreds of millions of users, would he now be willing to consider incorporating threaded design into Discourse?

It seems that at the very least, this makes pragmatic business sense, since threaded conversations are now what the majority of people are used to using.

Hi!

We're on 1.8.0.beta12 and have noticed an odd thing with not being able to edit topics to be able to change the case of the subject:

Example:

a. We spot a topic subject that someone asks us to update because it's in lower case:

b. I'll go in an update it (pilots are really into their letter casing being correct )

c. It doesn't take, as in doesn't seem to edit:

Not sure if a bug or just a misunderstanding. It just seems like an issue on editing and not creating new topics. We've also tried doing things like adding a character like '-' on the end to force a change, but it still always reverts back to how it was.

Thanks for any help.

Hi - I just noted that the create category button has been removed with a recent update.

I was able to create categories before and I find the feature to be very helpful to organise our knowledge base. Can you please advise on why the ability has been removed and on if / how I can get back the ability to create new categories?

Thank You
