@girish thanks, I guess. But really it was the the " long standing plugin installation issue" I was actually wondering about not 2.8.14 (despite that being the topic of this thread). Although now of course I'm also very interested in getting my hand on 3.0!

@nebulon thanks! I'm not getting my hopes up too far, but hopefully this will somehow also resolve all the issues that loads of the official plugins have when trying to install them on Cloudron...

This happens every time I rebake posts too sudo -E -u cloudron bundle exec rake posts:rebake

@jdaviescoates said in Plugin folders need ownership change after installation: I'm very bemused by this. The first time I installed a plugin (the Akismet plugin) I didn't have to change permissions on the /app/code/plugins/discourse-akismet/ folder from root to cloudron But every other plugin I've installed after that has required me to open the File Manager and change the ownership from root to cloudron. Why? Because the first time, when I installed the Akismet plugin, I restarted the app before looking at the File Manager, and seemingly restarting the app fixes the permissions.

I deleted the chat-integration plugin and reinstalled the checklist plugin and now I am able to see /admin/plugins again.

Seems the proposed method is indeed to just delete the directory: @girish said in How to deinstall plugins: I think just deleting the plugin directory inside /app/data/plugins and restarting the app will do it. @staff that info should be added to the docs But, also, does removing the directory actually make Cloudron then edit the app.yml file to remove references to the plugin? Because that is what is supposed to happen as per: https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-completely-uninstall-remove-a-plugin/55034/18?u=jdaviescoates

This issue has not been solved. The issue appears to be Cloudron specific and so clearly @Staff need to do something to make Discourse plugins install/ work as expected. If I can't install the discourse-calendar on my Cloudron Discourse app then the Cloudron Discourse app is completely useless to me See e.g. https://meta.discourse.org/t/migration-failed-on-update-calendar-plugin-to-last-commit/239437/6 And https://forum.cloudron.io/post/55230

Thanks @girish ! It worked. The changes took effect when I ran the job manually.

@LoudLemur Right, it will be like so: bundle exec rake plugin:install_gems['discourse-calendar']

New update was 1.17.3-1 and worked perfectly. Thx !

How should I read the doc made by the Cloudron team.

@subven Thank you! I tried again

@robi said in Discourse: initial change email / passphrase problem: @LoudLemur use a different browser, Firefox may have this issue with certain plugins. thanks. using a chromium based browser did indeed solve this issue. there is something similar to this if you try and view windy.com in a mozilla browser, the animated wind arrows just disappear and it is streaks of lines across the map. the whole interent seems to be degenerating into a 'only usable in google products' hell-hole.

@BrutalBirdie said in [SOLVED] Discourse cannot be found: @LoudLemur [image: 1661690578789-6ecf807e-08b3-4939-bbca-abdfad2a55f0-grafik-resized.png] And whats about that Nice to meet you too we have written to each other in other topic before and thank you also for your efforts as a member of the Cloudron staff No worries Oh, sorry about that! It is terrible to forget somebody who has helped. I think it was because I always thought there were just two staff at Cloudron. I am certainly glad there are more.

@brianb said in Installing More Than One Plugin at a Time: @jdaviescoates handy? NOPE! I get it... they need to make $ to keep discourse development (or nodebb) funded and moving forward. But after I got Discourse installed I thought there would be a nice UI for the Plugins... nope. It's not hard but it is tedious. Best I've been able to do so far is to go to official Discourse github repo and do a search for "discourse-plugin" which is how they tag MOST plugins. https://github.com/orgs/discourse/repositories?q=discourse-plugin&type=all&language=&sort= [image: 1652162867660-5c0672d4-090d-4836-82a2-864ca508aa82-image.png] I also keep their plugins page pulled up to know what is available and how they prioritize them. https://www.discourse.org/plugins#business @brianb Do you think this should be added to the doc for users to find good plugin sources faster? And if the answer is yes... would you like to contribute that to the doc?

I think just deleting the plugin directory inside /app/data/plugins and restarting the app will do it.
