Restore not taking multisites into account [cont]

Continuing the discussion from [Restore not taking multisites into account]

I'm afraid this is still not fixed. Just installed a fresh (multisite) Discourse and tried to restore one of the sites. Discourse again was looking for a default folder with the backup file, while it wasn't there of course.

Moving a Post to a different Topic doesn't actually move the Post, it copies it

So maybe I don't understand the terminology, but moving a post doesn't actually move it, it copies it. The post still exists in the original topic, even if it was the only one.

Repo:
Create two topics
On the second topic, click the wrench, choose Select Posts, select the only post in the second topic and choose Move to existing Topic
Select the first topic you created and click Move to Existing Topic button

It redirects you to the topic you told it to move the post to, but if you go back to the category view/latest view, you'll see the second topic still exists.

The topic of the post moved isn't closed or marked invisible, so the user can still interact with that given topic. Am I missing something here, or is this a bug or just bad terminology?

Forums constantly going down

Hey guys,

So the Hummingbird forums are still going strong but we have (and have always had) this really annoying problem of the forums dying multiple times throughout the day. What happens is either:

a) A blank white page with no error message

or

b) 502 Gateway Error

Both are generally solved with a reboot. Could this be an issue with our server? We're using a digitalocean droplet with 4GB of RAM.

We have implemented the new topic via email functionality and it works great.

Is there any way to send a confirmation to the user that their message was received and a topic was created?

If I create a link and paste in a URL with a %23 in it, the appears to get a # in it instead of remaining %23.

Here's a sample

If you look at the source for this post, you'll see that the spaces remain %20, but the %23 gets converted.

No Windows installer or easy docs for Windows gave me a negative impression

I went through reading about Discourse and how the founders are lamenting the current situation of forums software. You would think that Discourse is great. I have been disappointing. As a hard core Windows user and developer under Windows, most of what I found is stuff about Ubuntu Linux. Basically not Windows friendly. Even some docs about installing in Windows says to install a Linux VM uner Hyper-V/. Huh!?

I am very surprised that someone like Jefff Atwood, a .NET developer and where StackExchange was developed in .NET seemingly took a 180 turn and created some software which is not Windows friendly. Frankly even if he dislikes the current forum software, they are not going any time soon. People use them heavily and there are tens of thousands of them around.

Running Discourse under native Windows seems so awkward I don't see how Discourse is going to be a popular platform unless the hosted version becomes extremely popular. Currently the installation documentation suggests you need to be quite technical.

Ease of installation and friendly support under Windows seems way off. I am going to try a last ditch using Bitnami. I used Bitnami before under Windows and it made installation of software like WordPress very straight forward. If it doesn't do the same for Discourse, I will give it another try in a year. Until then a good forum software will suffice. That's what people know and are familiar with and I don't have time to disturb that environment.

Add "sign in" to anonymous header

Jeff Atwood wrote:

Right now the anonymous header looks like this:

but it looks like this when scrolled down in a topic, which is where we want most people to be most of the time, right?

This is a problem, since there's no visible Sign In to Reply most of the time, as we (very intentionally) want people to reach the bottom and read the whole conversation before replying.

I suggest we drop some of the glyphs here, which are de-facto sign in buttons for anons anyway..

And switch to this button + 2 glyphs layout:

across all anonymous pages. Hopefully this button + 2 glyphs layout will be about the same amount of space as 4 glyphs so it won't break layout.

Switch from Gravatar to HTML/CSS letters for no-avatar users

Jeff Atwood wrote:

Gravatars for users with no avatar specified use Identicons based on their IP address (or email), which can be kind of noisy – and it also means one image lookup per user.

What if we switched to a simpler approach where the first letter of the user's name was displayed as their default avatar, ala esotalk and the Google GMail app on Android?

Pasted image664x800 81.8 KB

For conflicting letters (there are two users without an avatar that have "A" in their name, above) We could also color the blocks to reduce letter conflict ambiguity, either the letter within, or the background color:

Pasted image664x800 47.6 KB

We need to also make sure this scales down to the 32x32 avatars as well:

  1. I type a url, say www.google.com

Best Way To Merge Categories

Andres Hernandez wrote:

I'd like to merge two categories together. Is there a good way to do this?

From what I've read I would have to go into one category and manually select every topic, and then change the category. That is fine for small categories, but I have potentially hundreds (or thousands) of posts I'm dealing with. This isn't exactly practical.

I've also read that it will only show topics that are in memory, not necessarily every topic in the category. This just seems like a big hassle for admins and I don't understand why there is not this basic functionality. Am I missing something obvious?

the unicorn processes are separated to orphaned processes, runit cannot restart the original unicorn process since the pids file are still existed. The only way I have to do is pkill ruby && rm -rf tmp/pids/* and it does restart, but this is not a way at all.

Am I missing anything ?
