    Since starting my nodebb forum I had many attempts at installing a player to show youtube inline rather than redirecting to youtube page.
    it would have been great if there was one listed in the searchable plugins but as there wasnt, I found one on github
    ns-embed
    I installed it from CLI, but it doesn’t do anything.
    Does anyone know why that might be?
    Im curious if this site has embedded video, so trying

    Edit: it works, which plugin is used?

    @eveh It is in fact nodebb-plugin-ns-embed. If you install this, out of the box, it should work - or you can try the below

    c31b4450-1020-4320-8b7f-e617b2b4d604-image.png

    Does this not work for you ?

    i did

    npm install nodebb-plugin-ns-embed

    in the terminal
    Nothing happened (after rebuid and restart of forum)
    The box you show above, where should I have seen that?

    I never saw anything giving me the option to use default rules

    @eveh After you install any plugin, it has to be activated. Check /admin/extend/plugins#deactive, activate it, then rebuild and restart.

    Is this from the terminal. If I go to nodebb directory there is no admin directory below that?
    If you mean go on the forum admin to Extend>plugins, that NS player is not in the list still

    Does it appear under the “inactive” tab ?

    @Panda you’d be surprised. If you consider that you’d need to use the API to be able to populate a WordPress widget for example (which in turn would of course be PHP), taking this route is still immensely popular.

    @Panda Just circling back here with something of an update (which I think you’ll like). I’ve completely restructured the ranking system. There are now less ranks, with a higher point threshold to reach them. More importantly, if you reload the site, you’ll notice that the ranks are now icons. I also removed the “Author” badge, and made this a single icon, which (to me) looks much better.

    @Panda said in Interesting Widget code, but can’t fetch API: How did you drop that widget into the post there? I hadnt seen this BSgenerator anywhere on sudonix site, do you use it somewhere already? Yes, here https://sudonix.org/topic/414/corporate-bullshit-generator?_=1687774393044 It’s not a “post” or “topic” in the common sense. It is actually a page in it’s own right and leverages nodebb-plugin-custom-pages. This in turn creates a new “route” which behaves like a page, meaning it is then exposed for widgets. @Panda said in Interesting Widget code, but can’t fetch API: Also can you explain more what you mean by calling the code externally. In my API call example, how would I go about doing that? By this, I mean create all the required code in an external JS file that is reachable by the NodeBB instance - so, in “public” for example - or in my case /public/js. The widget then “calls” that file and because it runs outside of the scope of NodeBB, you just need to return the values to the widget. Hope this makes sense?

    @DownPW sure. Let me have a look at this in more detail. I know nginx plus has extensive support for this, but it’s not impossible to get somewhere near acceptable with the standard version. You might be better off handling this at the Cloudflare level given that it sits in between the requesting client and your server.

    @phenomlab said in How to set a signature in NodeBB?: @jac No issues at all with copying. This is set using the signature for the user you are posting as. In the case of Hostrisk, it’s set like the below [image: 7bf04183-f6e8-4d72-b0eb-c9a05c9cd24b-image.png] You can set the signature by using https://domain.com/user/theuser/edit Mamy thanks Mark, I’ll set this up later .
