I’m trying to restore a backup from a hosted site running "Discourse 2.0.0.beta5 - https://github.com/discourse/discourse version 6f32de186aa1d9e0814183f354bb01f5b66d1c0e.

When I restore on a clean build, or one that’s gone through the setup wizard, it fails and leaves the database in such a state that Discourse doesn’t run anymore.

This is (PostgreSQL) 9.5.10 in the container.

API topic post creation ordered by updated_at

@michael.smith wrote:

I am creating a lot of topics with posts from an older system. The topics are from a few years ago and the posts within the topics the same.
What I am finding is that the posts associated with the topic show the correct time of created_at but seem to order by updated_at.
updated_at is the date and time that I created the post within my script which is not necessarily the order that they should be displayed.
I am using the discourse_api gem for all the Discourse work.

Is there a way to solve this? Or am I seeing this wrong? Or is there a setting that I can chage to display them in the correct order?

Thanks

How can we add an addon sub-domain in Discourse

Hello,

I am experimenting with something.

This is just an example, to explain in simple way.

Suppose that discourse is hosted at https://meta.example.org

I want an additional subdomain https://docs.example.org for accessing same website, without altering source code. Just, address bar URL should change, and nothing else. Nor, I need redirect. Just I need clone.

What problem I am facing?

When I add simply CNAME docs it redirects to meta. I don’t want that.

can we make this possible? If yes, please let me know how.

Thanks & Regards,
Gulshan

The discourse footnote plugin allows you to create markdown footnotes in your posts.

Installation

Add the following line to your container, in the plugin install section

  - cd /var/www/discourse/plugins && sudo -E -u discourse git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-footnote

About

Footnotes have been discussed as an optional CommonMark extension for a while:

The general consensus is that the extension should allow for syntax such as:

some deep thought who needs a reference[^1]

[^1]: Here's the reference.

Discourse footnote re-packages the footnote markdown.it extension by @Vitaly as a Discourse plugin.

It supports both, single line and multi paragraph footnotes.

So, for example, this works.

We are our choices. [^sartre]

A lot of interesting words

He really said it. [^sartre]

[^sartre]: We are our choices.
Sartre, some time
some day
in the past

Site Settings

In a multi site environment each site can enable or disable the extension with the enable_markdown_footnotes setting.

Additionally you can either enable or disable “inline” expansion with display_footnotes_inline

Screenshots

This is how stuff looks without inline expansion:

This is how stuff looks with inline expansion:

Inline expansion is “quote” friendly and mobile friendly.

launcher has been updated to use the new Docker base image and postgres.template.yml which would use PostgreSQL 10 by default instead of Postgres 9.5.

As long as your container’s config is using the default postgres.template.yml, the upgrade of the PostgreSQL data directory would happen automatically the next time you do a ./launcher rebuild. In the event that the PostgreSQL data directory fails to upgrade, please follow the instructions printed by ./launcher rebuild or you may refer to the instructions in this template. If following the instructions does not work for you, please post the full log of ./launcher rebuild here so that we can help you restore your instance into a working state.

  1. If prefer html in email is set, then the HTML version will be taken to convert to MarkDown.

  2. The MarkDown converted will be:

      Something else.
  1. Notice that there are SIX spaces in front of the paragraph (perhaps created by the four spaces in the HTML between </p> and <p>, plus a CRLF pair. Also, the second line because a separate paragraph with leading spaces. These spaces cause the paragraphs to become code blocks.

Any way to turn off code-block indent from emails

@schungx wrote:

This is a follow-on from:

Many people send in emails with only plain text versions (no HTML version). In many countries they start off each paragraph with indents (or five spaces).

Needless to say, all paragraphs got turned into code blocks in MarkDown.

The thing is, hardly never will my user send in a code-block. I do not run a programming forum.

Is there any way to turn OFF the four-space ==> code block feature of MarkDown?

A better 'Sorry, you don't have access to that topic!' message

One of our categories is ‘members-only’, and people can request access to it (we validate them manually before adding). Some of them try to access topics before being added and are usually left confused about what to do when they read the ‘Sorry, you don’t have access to that topic!’ message.

I’d like to provide them some help here - if we could add an optional custom ‘permission denied’ message for categories we could solve this. In our case, this might read:

This forum category is for registered Store users only. To get access, first register as a seller, then request access to this forum here.

Here’s a screenshot of the current message:

I just added the chat-integration plugin (awesome plugin btw :smiley: ) and configured it to work with our team’s Slack. Everything’s working fine except for the slash commands. I can’t seem to use them when I’m in private channels. The slash commands fail and I get this error:

Darn - that slash command didn’t work (error message: 422_client_error). Manage the command at Microsat Discourse Bot.

Is this the expected behaviour or is there something wrong with my configuration? I’m using the OAth token. The slash commands work fine on public channels.

How Can I Bulk Import Options For My Custom Field - Drop Down Menu - at user Sign-up

Hello there.

My community is for students and at sign-up, I require them to put in the name of their school. This ‘School Name’ field is, of course, a Custom Field and I have chosen a Dropdown Menu. I have opted to use a drop-down menu instead of a text field because I want to ensure that members don’t use different variations of the same school name e.g.

  • Princeton University
  • Princeton
  • Princeton Uni
  • Princeton U.

Being that there are Thousands of schools out there, how can I Bulk Import Options (Names of Schools) for this Drop Down Menu.

Thanks for the help

How is archiving supposed to work when something is in multiple groups?

Should the archive button (in a pots) archive it everywhere or only in 1 group or only in the groups that the user has access to?

If the last, would it make sense to have a dropdown beneath archive to say where it should archive/move back?

We current get inconsistent behavior when @support (Which doesn’t have access to @sales) archives a post. It will show a “Move back to inbox” button in the post, but still shows in @sales.

Ok, here’s a weird bug. When an URL contains --, the markdown converts it do –

For example, this URL: cs--preview.khanacademy.org

If I explicitly insert a link, it works, even though it is rendered incorectly:
[https://cs--preview.khanacademy.org](https://cs--preview.khanacademy.org)
https://cs–preview.khanacademy.org

PS: Hm, linkifying seems to be disabled here on meta, but hopefully the second example makes things clear.
