Discourse Plugin Compability?

jdaviescoates

@IniBudi currently it seems most Discourse plugins (including official ones) just don't work on Cloudron

But as I understand it it's on @girish's todo list to sort.

IniBudi

@jdaviescoates Yes correct, I just installed the official plugins but it makes my forum down. So, I decided to remove the plugin.

@nebulon, I just want to know which plugins are compatible with Cloudron based on other user's experience. If others share the list of plugins that are compatible with Cloudron. So, I don't need to test many plugins.

@IniBudi Best to try them one by one yourself. Then you'll know which one breaks, which can help the team fix something if needed.

jdaviescoates

Personally I'd say best to wait for @girish to get them working (assuming/ hoping he does! ) before wasting any more time testing any. That's what I'm going to do

IniBudi

@robi I've tried to install the plugin one by one. But it always breaks my forum.

If I remove the plugin folder, without restarting the apps. The forum is running without any errors. But if there's a plugin folder, it made my forum to be 500 errors.

Have you experience with successful installation plugins on Discourse?

@jdaviescoates Yes, I agree with you.

@IniBudi I run NodeBB just like this Cloudron forum here, which may be a better option for you.

girish

Discourse is getting there. I have managed to get the app updated. Now it's just a lot of testing.

jdaviescoates

@girish great, thanks!

girish

Latest package should have plugins working again.

IniBudi

@girish confirmed it works! Thank you for your support!

IniBudi

I already tested the below plugins and it's compatible with Cloudron

The below plugins are not compatible with Cloudron

Wouldn't we need to update to something?
My Cloudron installation says it is up to date with Discourse Cloudron version being org.discourse.cloudronapp@2.2.3 11.11.2023.
?

nebulon

Which version is your Cloudron at currently? The latest discourse release requires Cloudron 7.6.0

I always fall into the same hole ;-(
Thanks

Oh what a pain - netcup no AVX, I think I have to shoot myself .......

@nafets-lesierk thankfully it's really easy to move server with Cloudron.

I'd recommend moving to Hetzner - almost as cheap at Netcup, but overall much better imho

Follow the instructions here:
https://docs.cloudron.io/backups/#restore-cloudron

I recommend doing a dry run first.
https://docs.cloudron.io/backups/#dry-run

I'd also recommend checking the spam black list status of the IP (e.g. on here https://mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx ) of your new server before starting to move over to it (and if it's bad as for a new IP/ new server that has a clean slate).

https://github.com/paviliondev/discourse-events doesn't seem to work

Thank you very much, will look into it.
It's just - I hate the prospect of spending another minute with these back office things ... Oh well.

@IniBudi said in Discourse Plugin Compability?:

https://github.com/discourse/discourse-subscriptions
https://github.com/discourse/discourse-reactions

Did you get these working?

I'm also struggling to get discourse-reactions to work. It loads in but only seems to work on mobile for some reason

Cloudron makes it easy to run web apps like WordPress, Nextcloud, GitLab on your server. Find out more or install now.
