Yes, I'm aware of that but wondered if people offer pre-made child themes. I ask because that's something available on WP for example.

Yes though I'd like my own ads to be randomized, not fixed, like regular ads would look. I'll take a look at the plugin you mention however so thanks for that.

Child themes repo? (community.nodebb.org)

Is there such a thing as a child theme repo? For example, say I want to use Harmony but I want to customize it but someone else already has a lot of what I want done so I could use that.

Can it display other ads that aren't adsense? Like if I have my own series of ads I'd like to show on the board.

Ads and popups (community.nodebb.org)

Can anyone recommend a well supported plugin that allows inserting ads between posts and/or perhaps other parts of the site. Something that can be controlled so it's not overwhelming. it would have to allow both Google ads (and others?) along with custom ads such as my own ads being placed here and there.

Also, does anyone know of a way to have a banner or notice pop up for all new or all guests visiting?

How could I have missed that. Thank you for pointing that out. Solved.

Header code not showing up (community.nodebb.org)
submitted 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) by nodeham@community.nodebb.org to c/general-discussion@community.nodebb.org

I was doing some testing of meta data and found something odd. I have matomo code in the custom header but it's not showing up in the source after saving/rebuilding etc. What is really odd is that I have matomo code in another nodebb that we have and its working fine. Both are the exact same version using the non customized Harmony theme.

Not really sure what information to share to get help for this one.

Oh that's right, it's a post ID, not the category name for example. Thanks for pointing that out. Solved :).

[-] nodeham@community.nodebb.org 1 points 1 week ago

I've not checked that yet, not sure how but you're saying that even when a post is moved to another category, it will still be found using the old url?

When I move posts on nodebb and the url changes, is there a way to give visitors a 301 rather than a 404? In my opinion, this should be done automatically otherwise you get dinged by search engines but I don't see that.

[-] nodeham@community.nodebb.org 1 points 3 weeks ago

One question. Are the dashboard logs derived from the web server logs or directly from the nodebb code? I assume directly.

[-] nodeham@community.nodebb.org 1 points 3 weeks ago

Well, I wasn't posting looking for technical information but now you have me curious :).

Looking at the logs, they strongly suggest automated bot activity. Hits from Googlebot and other search crawlers WordPress vulnerability scanners Automated scanning tools like ZGrab

Are these triggering login attempts either by mistake or as part of their crawling process? Googlebot, for example, accesses various URLs, including login pages, and might cause login events.

Many of the requests are targeting /wp-admin/setup-config.php, /wordpress/wp-admin/setup-config.php, /xmlrpc.php, /wlwmanifest.xml, and similar WordPress-related URLs.

Since it's not a WP site, are these requests resulting in redirects or 301 responses, but getting counted in access logs that result in the dashboard stats?

[-] nodeham@community.nodebb.org 1 points 3 weeks ago

Yes but aren't those usually script kiddies? The number of unique visitors is only 202 while the login attempts are nearly 15K for yesterday alone.

Script kiddies need lives (community.nodebb.org)

No problems with nodebb, just an observation of so many people wasting their lives trying to hack others. Some having the potential to be highly skilled and well paid folks but instead spend their time trying to hurt others.

I put a site online just to test a few things. It's not advertised or mentioned anywhere yet but look at the stats. Lots of hits from bots, most presumably looking for Wordpress sites. I just thought it was interesting and wanted to share.

Markdown settings missing (community.nodebb.org)

I'm trying to find how I can enable Parse Markdown in API posts so I go to Extend, Plugins, Active and click on Settings for the markdown plugin.

That leads me to;

Not Found You seem to have stumbled upon a page that does not exist.

Am I doing something wrong or is there a bug?

[-] nodeham@community.nodebb.org 1 points 4 weeks ago

Single at the moment but with plans to go multiple if traffic warrants it. I'll do some debugging as suggested and report back.

[-] nodeham@community.nodebb.org 1 points 4 weeks ago

it's not public yet no.

The Post Exists but Isn't Loading in the UI. To test, I refresh the post in my browser and it goes 410. When I add api into the url, I see the post but it's all code. A refresh does not get the 410.

410 gone using API (community.nodebb.org)

I'm using the nodebb API to create posts and update them. The user is fully allowed to post as the API authenticated user. There are no limitations or auto removals set in the nodebb forums settings.

I can go to the category and click on the post and see it. I can move away from the category and go again and I see the post. The only time it goes 410 is when I refresh the browser while viewing the post.

I'm told it could be the nodebb cache causing this but if that is the case, how can I prevent this from happening as I certainly don't want to disable cache. Posts should never show 410 gone when they are in fact still there so what's going on?
