Discourse

Some of us have experienced friction migrating to Discourse

Email notifications have some challenges:

   -

   you do not receive your own emails! other than that it should be “okay”
   -

   From your profile preferences, use the email tab to adjust email
   settings.

   Important: Select always to avoid missing any topics posted when also
   logged in to the discourse website!

   -

   Navigate to GeoSever Developer
   <https://discourse.osgeo.org/c/geoserver/developer/63> category, and use
   the bell to change notifications to Watching .

   -

   Received email is marked with the mailing list header:
   developer.geoserver.discourse.osgeo.org

   -

   You can send and receive email from
   geoserver-develo...@discourse.osgeo.org to start a new topic.

   To test please send an email to introduce yourself (rather than a test
   message).



Categories: Has an edit button, so you can add, e.g., geoserver


Don’t forget to click “Save Changes”


Sign-up Instructions - Jody has improved them somewhat, see here
<https://discourse.osgeo.org/t/welcome-to-osgeo/5>

No option to see members at the moment, Jody will look into it

   -

   Now changed such that Owners and Moderators can see members


Intro/About categories are pinned, but some users are finding they are
getting unpinned for no apparent reason… it’s “unpinned” for them and it
can be pinned again (clicking on the little pin on the message side).

Thread here on how this works in discourse
<https://meta.discourse.org/t/disabling-automatic-topic-unpinning/35507/5>

There should be a way to disable automatic unpinning.

It looks like this is both a global setting and a per-user setting.


   -

   Globally - Un-check ‘automatically unpin topics’ and ‘default topics
   automatic unpin’ in ‘Settings’ menu(admin authority required). These two
   settings turn pinned posts into unpinned posts when the user reads
it. Further
   discussion here
   
<https://meta.discourse.org/t/pinned-posts-not-staying-on-top-in-one-category/221222/2>
   -

   For users - in Preferences > Interface, scroll down to other and ensure
   “Automatically unpin topics when I reach the bottom” is unchecked:

Wicket 9 branch and test case failures (JUNIT 4 vs 5)

Force tests to run with JUnit 4:

https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/7939

Print the containment hierarchy for a wicket test, while it’s running:

print(tester.getLastRenderedPage(), true, true);

It appears these failures are caused by actual structural changes to the
wicket DOM introduced by the wicket upgrade.

The fix should be relatively straightforward, but still requires some
effort to complete

Dave can take a look at the PR and try and fix some of these.

Also look for:

[INFO] Tests run: 0, Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0
