So it is installed? Do I just do this?https://codepen.io/karmatics/pen/eYJxXge
(apparently not.... are you sure it is running?)
-
@rob, the admin page that lists the plugins says it is activated. However, when I did the "npm install" (prior), I received several warnings. I posted those. I don't know whether any of those are keeping it from working.
Maybe I should take the latest NodeBB.
-
@rob, I told the add-on to install itself, and it says it is installed, but evidently it does not actually work. Do you have a suggestion on what I should do next?
-
I would go to the NodeBB forums. If you want me to do this, I can, but since you are the one who can respond and do what they say to do, it might be easier for you to do it.
We'd also like to have embeddable YouTube videos, which last I checked didn't work.
-
@rob, I predict that their first answer will be "update to the latest."
-
Possibly. It would be interesting to see if the plug in is actively supported.
-
@rob So you still think that the next step is to go ask.
Here is, I think, the best procedure for an upgrade. Wait until some time that is between 3am and 6am, New York time. Purchase the backup service from Linode ($2/mo.). Stop NodeBB. Trigger a backup. Await its completion. As long as the forum is going to be down anyway, this is a good opportunity to update the OS*. Upgrade NodeBB. Restart it. Do a cursory sanity check. After about a week, drop the backup service.
* It's Ubuntu. If I had it to do over again, I would use straight Debian, which is stabler and needs less-frequent updates.
-
Yes, especially if you are ready to move if they offer a suggestion.
I posted a test here:
https://community.nodebb.org/topic/16088/codepen-plugin-testI wish it auto-ran, but that's better than nothing.
-
@rob I put the query on the support forum. https://community.nodebb.org/post/85573
