Is there any documentation on the User/Mobile API?

@evaryont wrote:

I was looking at the Discourse Mobile app source code and noticed it using the user API keys, and calling /user-api-key/new but I don't see any reference to that in the Discourse API documentation. Are the routes documented anywhere beyond the source code?

And, how do users from SSO get their own API key? Most documentation that I find mention getting the API key from the admin panel, but that won't work for me. I'd like to get a list of notifications from here, on meta, and other instances of discourse where I'm just a user. Similar to what the mobile app does already, but I'd like to use the information in a different context.

How can I limit number of words in digest mail?

@stefandevo wrote:

Hi,
We have a small community forum running and digest is of course a great way to inform users about new topics. However, is there a way to limit the number of words for the topics that are shown. I have the feeling that the complete post is in the email, causing our members not to return to the forum because they can read everything in the mail.
Is there a way to just show the missed/popular topics without the real contents of the topic?

Login to discourse automatically in android webview

@hnaseri wrote:

I have implemented part of discourse functionalities in my android application. Now something is still not right. When user clicks on a topic in my application, the topic is opened in a webview. However the user needs to login to discourse in the android webview, in order to reply or like. This behavior is redundant since the user already has logged into the application.

Is there anything I can do to login the user to discourse in android webview automatically?

Likes while Suspended

Hello.

On the BBS that we have, one of the users is suspended. I'm wondering if this user can still receive likes while he is suspended, or not. If he can, that's a bit like rewarding him while he is not allowed to be there.

Site title cannot contain HTML entities

Cannot use HTML entities in the site title in Site Settings. For example, using & reg; (I put space after & so that it does not render here) does not work and you need to use the ® character explicitly.

Discourse in Subdomain + Clouflare + Letsencrypt

@minimalart wrote:

Hi!
I'm running a new project around makers and dyiers on Latin America. Its a simple site with articles, hosted by myself in a VPS, which address is http://makers.la
I decided to go with Discourse to host the community, to keep separated articles from forums; and I pointed the subdomain comunidad.makers.la to Discourse.
After initial setup, everything went fine.

A couple of days ago I decided to add SSL to the main site, so its became to https://makers.la. I did it with a Letsencrypt certificate, and DNS are managed by Cloudflare. The Crypto section in Cloudflare was set to Full, because the Flexible setting prevented to access the main site (too many redirections)

But after that, the forums became inaccesible. Browsers says "to many redirects", and I was trying to play with Cloudflare page rules without success. And I cannot enter to Discourse setting because... well, because too many redirects.

I know this is not a Discourse issue, maybe Cloudflare or letsencript/nginx vhost settings; but I'll really appreciate if you could help me with this. I spent a lot of hours trying to understand what I'm doing wrong, before I decided to ask

Thanks in advance for any help

Hi, I'm the owner of http://www.electric-skateboard.builders

The forum is growing & there is lots of great content, but it feels a bit messy & I'm worried that it's getting hard for new users to find the stuff they need.

I am wondering, can experienced members @staff of this community take a look and give me some feedback / tips about the current health of our community and how to improve it?

If not, I'm happy to research it myself, please link me some articles about how to better manage a growing community & keep it thriving & healthy

Exported analytics CSV should have useful headers

@barryvan wrote:

I just exported a handful of reports to CSV to do some quick-and-dirty analytics in Excel. Problem is that it's not immediately clear which report is which, because all of the reports have headers of just date and value, rather than the nicer, meaningful headers that are used in the front-end.

It'd be great to have these headers improved -- or even for the filename to include the type of report that was run.

Share dialog after creating a new topic

@SMT wrote:

Hi,

I need a feature where we can ask users to share topic on his/her social accounts when someone creates a new topic. A share dialog might work.

I think this way user can get more views to his topic and can help us to grow the community.

Quora also uses similar feature.

Discourse forum sometimes loads with "Index of /" sometimes correctly with its signup/ login page

Hi all,

Problem:
Occasionally my forum website loads correctly with a welcome screen and a login/ signup request, and sometimes it comes up with a blank screen with "Index of /" and a table (which only contains a cgi-bin column with the date modified).

Process on what i followed:

  1. Installed Discourse on Digital Ocean, made a few tweaks to receive my first email for admin registration by following this thread::
    https://meta.discourse.org/t/troubleshooting-email-on-a-new-discourse-install/16326
  2. Created an A record in my CPanel in my hosting domain (provider -- InterServer) for the forum sub domain.
  3. Created a SPF file with the help of the hosting domain provider.

Background:
A newbie in Linux but can manage to follow after some understanding.

CommonMark testing started here!

@sam wrote:

Per our migration plans, I just enabled markdown.it at Meta.

It is an excellent CommonMark compliant engine. I expect quite a few edges to be found during this period of testing.

Do not open bugs about the new Engine, just reply here.

I/we will be updating the top post here with the list of issues and striking out stuff as it is fixed.

Current known issues (to be fixed)

  • Onebox vanishes after you start typing and works not-super consistently
  • Emoji -> Image conversion (when posing Emoji's via a phone) is not implemented yet.
  • Some BBCode is unimplemented: [email], [ul], [li] [url] and [img]
  • When quoting the composer sometimes inserts a quote block in the middle of a line (not a new bug but broken with new engine)
  • Quote without preceding empty line does not work.
  • Sometimes when editing, preview is blank
  • 2 polls in a post seems to be ... not that good.
  • Onebox of reply is missing tons of info.

Issues that will not be fixed

This topic is wiki, if you are TL3 or above feel free to clean it up.

Users entering passwords in the custom user field

0

@SlyRemarks wrote:

We've noticed something interesting and a bit concerning on our Discourse: users are entering their passwords on an user field we've added. Basically, it is really helpful for our community that users share their location, it makes supporting them much easier. Therefore when they sign up they are asked for this information so others, especially the moderators, have an easier job (so the information needs to be publicly visible). Because this field is placed directly beneath the password field, and on a lot of sites you're asked to confirm the password, users automatically write their passwords twice without really reading the description.

We've changed the style-sheet so that the user field is more distinctive and have reworded it too. Ideally the password would be the last field, not the field we've added. Have I missed something, is there a way to do this?

Topics older than auto-close age should auto-close

@tim.smith wrote:

After turning on auto-close, only posts created after setting the auto-close time will be auto-closed. Even if someone drags up an ancient post with a new reply, it doesn't have the auto-close notice at the bottom of the page. I was hoping that there would be a nightly job or something to look for topics past the auto-close time that are still open, and then close them.

Is anyone aware of a workaround for my issue? Is there some command I can run to close topics that are older than the configured auto-close time? I'm not to keen on closing a year of posts manually.

This was reported as a bug here, but the fix submitted by @tgxworld did not address this issue. I am running v1.8.0 and am still seeing this issue.
