customer signs up for an account (on Nextcloud) to collect a free product. to buy more, customer is asked to log into their account, but that page is actually a Wordpress registration form looking like a log in form. Customer enters the same credentials, so both accounts will correspond (and both sites are under one brand/visual identity). when coming back to their account page (on Wordpress) for future purchases and such, customer will use a similar looking log in form, that is actually a log in form.

Of course:

the camouflaged registration form needs to be used only the first time. I can arrange that through the onboarding flow. I still need purchases on Wordpress to be reflected for the corresponding user on Nextcloud. I'll start manually (again, tiny operation), then I think I can automate that through the APIs on n8n, like Stripe to Nextcloud. Just need to learn more about how that works...

@nebulon said in Is there a way to create email addresses without creating Cloudron users?:

@jdaviescoates is this because that user has the role of User and Email Manager? Is this so Cloudron used like a shared hosting environment of sorts?

I've no idea. @eddowding ?

@timconsidine said in Cubby is great!:

@LoudLemur Understand the motivation and also the usefulness in certain use cases.
But (repeating another comment elsewhere) I like that Cubby is separate and reduces/eliminates any risk of "link bleeding" or hijacking of links.

I guess that if integration is implemented, it could just be disabled.
At least that is what I would request.
In that way its standalone / segregated implementation can be retained.

I didn't think of that. It would be important.

@LoudLemur I use the smallest VPS with SSD (Cloud VPS S). For my small family (e.g. for using Nextcloud and Vaultwarden) this is more than sufficient, at least for my needs.

@msbt Thanks a lot. you helped me at a right and saved lot of time

You can see examples of other marketplace apps here:

It seems @jimcavoli already got this working, see here:

@timconsidine said in Why not make Cloudron fully open source again?:

Being fully open source is a red-herring IMHO.

I love Cloudron, I promote it and recommend it because as you say it is the most accomplished platform in that field, plus I love the community and have massive respect for the two main developers, for their skills and the great software they make but also because of their friendly attitude, their care for customer support and the way they engage with users. Plus while Cloudron is not Free Software the code source is out there for any to inspect so that's great in terms of users knowing what the software actually does and that's good enough for me.

However, the point of Free Software is not only about how things are now but also about future proofing. Things might change in the devs' lives, they might need to move on, they might need a lump of cash cause something terrible happen and sell the company, or whatever else. And if the new devs have a different ethics what do we do? Look for another software and all the time and energy spent on Cloudron is kinda wasted and then not as many people benefit from this amazing platform? And to be honest the current situation makes it hard to recommend it and promote in some context because not everyone is just interested in the best software or value for money but also care about software license but ethical and practical reasons.

I don't have a perfect solution as I understand and respect Girish and Nebulon's current position in that they don't want someone to just fork everything and release it for free.

Maybe something could be added in the license that says the code must be made publicly available, and that if the license changes to a more restrictive one (one that removes the public release of the code), then the current license reverts to a Free Software license e.g. AGLP 3.0 or its successor. This would basically guarantee Freedom 0 and 1 and would implement some kind of (twisted) copyleft. And that would be enough to make me happy 🙂

But I don't know if that is possible at all?? I'm a legal geek but not on software license...yet 😉 Anyone know?

@girish This is likely gonna be MUCH cleaner, thanks for letting us know!

Hello. No updates about (WA) bridges ? Or do we just wait for the Digital Markets Act effects ? 🙂
Doesn't seems sooo difficult : https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/general/docker-setup.html?bridge=whatsapp

@marcusquinn not yet, plan on dabbling with it soon though. Another interesting project where I actually found k0s: https://elest.io/ learned of elest.io from the Penpot team lol

With the large tier of oracle, it should be great instance to start with cloudron

https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/FreeTier/freetier_topic-Always_Free_Resources.htm

it's not big drive with 20GB, but 24gb ram and 4 cores. it is a real great start for a user to test and evaluate cloudron use cases before a comercial usage

@timconsidine Ah, that wasn't in the top of the repo.

No fear!

@timconsidine Nice screenshots page to illustrate:

@jdaviescoates Thanks to the good people here, I was able to setup the Discourse calendar. I have not yet had a chance to use it yet, but was curious and checked NodeBB. It has a calendar plugin too:
https://github.com/pitaj/nodebb-plugin-calendar

Has anybody tried using that plugin? What did you think of it?

@BrutalBirdie Thanks for your reply. I will use the whole server just for myself. One Nextcloud user, one Mastodon user, etc

I will probably move my own blog over to the server and cancel my webhosting plan.

I am just not sure how much storage I will need and in case I will not see a difference in speed, I should probably go with the bigger storage

@canadaduane since you're already using vs code you could try it's life share functionality. I've used it with colleges half way around the globe and it worked pretty stable.

@robi said in Using Cloudron to Automate Processing of Entries to a Competition:

As @girish suggested, the architecture and process is similar to one of these options:

Choose your adventure (book) 🙂

Input options:

Surfer hosted app (self made data collection) WP with forms plugin Lime Survey Espo CRM Dolibarr LAMP custom script, etc.

Data processing options:

one of the Cloudron DBs attached to above apps NocoDB Baserow N8N WP plugin ...

Output options:

same as the input options as you get processed data passed back

That should help frame things and take you to the next level.

Have fun

Thanks! Input/processing/output is a nice way of looking at it.

I have a RS 4000, RS 1000 and a couple of small VPS at Netcup. For storage space I use Hetzner Storagebox since Netcup is way too expensive. On the other side, if you need faster storage and interconnectivity, you can order Cloud vLan at Netcup to build your own Network within their Datacenter.

@murgero & I will look into including the legal resources

@timconsidine said in Sharing custom SpamAssassin Rules:

@necrevistonnezr I avoid fussing about GDPR as I consider it a total mess but one important distinction to bear in mind is that while an IP address is indeed capable of indicating identity, the core issue is whether it is “PID” : personally identifiable data.

As I said, Identifiers can be problematic in combination. And please think of false positives, where totally legit IPs are combined with your server domain - think a private domain and an IP to abortion information, stuff like that. BTW companies are not protected, only persons.

And while GDPR is exhausting (mostly, if not really understood) and needs improvements, it has lead to many companies thinking privacy when developing a product, not just afterwards. Or how they need to secure private data with technical and organizational measures (Art 32 GDPR) - hardcoding passwords or keeping them unencrypted for example (think the current Twitter scandal) can lead to fines and liability. It’s a new mind set.

@girish I'm sorry for mistakenly post in this channel.
Thank you.

@mdreira This is exactly what myself and team solve with EspoCRM. Highly recommended. It is only missing the accounting functionality, although I am also building that as an add-on.
