  • I have enabled the plugin Profile Extender which adds some optional fields to the user profile pages on the forum.
    The mainstream social media (and GitHub) fields automatically converts username to URL (e.g. tetov => https://github.com/tetov).
    See my profile for an example.

  • @tetov @Moult we have these tags but I can't see anywhere a directory of them to do some tidying up. Any ideas?

    What tags? :)

    @tetov these ones we can add to the first post of each discussion:

    They're generated for those with access just by typing, but I can't see a list of all available tags. It has some autocomplete but that's not an ideal solution.

  • Click show popular tags. :)

  • @tetov (please tag me so I see posts) I want to see all tags, not just the most popular ones. I also want to be able to clikc on a tag and see a list of pages, just like I do if I click a tag at the bottom of an existing post.

  • @duncan: As an administrator on the forum you have access to Tagging under settings where you can see all tags, rename and remove them as well as seeing how often they have been used.
    We could also add the plugin All tags which adds a widget showing all created tags.

  • @tetov right, I hadn't thought to check those settings. They're good for doing a clear up.
    I feel like all users should be able to navigate from a tag list like that, I think that's what the All Tags widget does? If that's what the widget does and the it might be worth a try. I think it's just a no-brainer that a casual visitor should be able to browse all articles tagged "freecad" or whatever. I 'd love to see that working in the forum.

  • @duncan I've added the plugin. It is integrated into the "Discussion filters" just below the "New discussion" button. I would prefer to replace the popular tag widget with the all plugins output, I'll look into adding a panel widget to the alltags plugin..

  • Perhaps consolidate down to 1 tag?

  • Go for it :) The former is preferred.

  • perhaps for an admin user to do.

    You read my mind. Now we have a chance to do some cleaning up

  • When you delete something, press then x. otherwise it d. work.

  • The favicon for the discussion page is not showing, but it works fine in an individual discussion page. I've tested in multiple browsers.
    Tiny detail, but since I noticed it is all I see :)

    I think it's related to vanilla's pocket functionality--which allows you to inject snippets of html into the forum.
    I added this pocket awhile ago.

    <div style="background-image: url(&quot;https://osarch.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/cropped-banner.png&quot;);background-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);height: 183px;background-position: 0px -174px;background-repeat: no-repeat;filter: brightness(0.7);">
    </div>
    

    It adds that header image to the top of the https://community.osarch.org/discussions page.
    When i turn this pocket off, that's when the favicon comes back.
    Not sure why it's doing this.

  • It might be just me, but I've noticed the forum doesn't push email notifications anymore.

  • @theoryshaw I got one this morning

    Would be cool to install a plugin like the following to our Vanilla Forum.
    https://open.vanillaforums.com/addon/feeddiscussions-plugin
    Would allow pushing RSS feeds from our Wiki, into a discussion thread.
    Would create awareness of the wiki, and the changes being made there.
