I started training in my teen years to be a bench jeweler and over a decade later in the jewelry manufacturing scene and after the advance of tech, I found myself becoming a 3D modeler. I've given up on my hammer and torch a while back. CAD and 3D printing are mostly what I do all day long now. I'm in the process of expanding into other fields as I'm using my knowledge in CAD/CAM to create all sorts of things. It turns out if you know CAD/CAM + Rendering + general knowledge in coding/tech, there's nothing you can't create and sell online. At this stage, I'm not sure what my job title is. A modeler, a creator, or a retailer? This question always makes me pause and I end up telling people, "I do computer stuff" and they assume I'm coding all day long

Hi,

I have a handful of apps that I elected not to back up automatically and it would be nice to have an option to group them to make it easier when I'm creating the backups manually.

Thanks!

@robi I'll get right on that. Thank you.

@marcusquinn I can't believe services like that exists. But I might have to use it if all else fails.

I dug a bit deeper and came across some interesting posts:

https://serverfault.com/questions/709736/how-does-dnswl-work-how-can-i-gain-better-trust

I visited DNSWL.org and registered for listing my domain and IP with them.

I ran a multi-RBL check against my server IP on Anti Abuse (http://www.anti-abuse.org/) and found out that SpamRats had it listed for spam. I just submitted a request for removal.

Now that I think about it. I regret getting rid of my old DO server. I've been using that for years and didn't have these issues. I should have used the new server as a transitional server while I installed Cloudron on the old one. Lesson learned.

@d19dotca My problem with Signal and most other apps is that you need a phone number or email address associated with the account which can be mined from the metadata.

Signal removed the "from" in the metadata but for an app that touts "secure communications", you'd think they would have done that since the app's inception.

You might say, "I don't have anything to hide" or "I don't care if they know some things about me" but all this info is being collected and they're building a profile about you so they can profit from it. That's the best case scenario. Now imagine dictators having that kind of power in their hands. What's stopping corporations, governments, organizations from abusing this power? Nada. We have to protect ourselves by denying them every bit of data no matter of irrelevant it may seem. Ask yourself, if it's that irrelevant, why do they want it so bad? Why does big brother want a backdoor into encryption?

I rest my case.

@jdaviescoates This doesn't make sense though. It's like we're being forced to use big tech solutions or get thrown under the bus. If I have all the proper records set up with a clean server IP and sending score then they should go to the inbox. You wanna know what's really funny? I receive 5-10 spam emails per day from GMAIL accounts and they come right into my inbox.

I'd like to add to this. The ability to select the pass length and whether we want special characters. Or if it's easier to do, allow us to add our own passwords instead of them being generated for us.

@girish I got a 10/10 with one yellow "Your message does not contain a List-Unsubscribe header". I don't send bulk emails from my server so I guess it doesn't apply to me. I've been sending emails from the server to my gmail accounts for the past hour and removing them from the spam folder and replying to each one. I think it's starting to work but now I have to test other providers like hotmail and yahoo.

This is a great online app. For personal use, I'm using TinyPNG's API but it's limited to 500 images/mo. It would be awesome to have a self-hosted option. For work, I use IrfanView (installs locally on your PC) and it can do batch conversions. With the right settings, I got it to work just as good as TinyPNG. I use it mostly to optimize 360 degree product renderings so I have thousands of images at a time. Works great.

I'm using this WP plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-piwik/

WP-Piwik Settings

Matomo-Mode: Self-Hosted (HTTP, API)
Auto-Config: Checked
Add Tracking Code: Default Tracking
Javascript code position: Footer
Enable Cache: Checked

Matomo Install Settings - I'm running the bare minimum tracking to protect user privacy as much as possible while collecting enough info to understand my traffic

Anonymize IP by 2 Bytes
Keeping a short timeframe for deleting old logs
Enable DNT support
Geolocation - DBIP / GeoIP 2 PHP

@jdaviescoates No problem. I forgot to mention that Firefox might give you a problem with error messages (just ignore them) but if Matomo doesn't seem to be registering any hits then try to disable DNT. With DNT on, I had issues with the hits showing up in the WP dashboard.

@sebgg give this a read - i had the same problem and installing the element app and then deleting it might have fixed the ssl issue that might have caused the federation to fail.

https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/3974/help-making-federation-work/4?_=1610652549494

BTW, make sure to install matrix first, then element.

@girish Oh, okay. That sounds like google will have access to the app's data. I'll stick to the second journal app I have listed above. Thanks Girish!

@girish I thought firebase is some kind of coding language like javascript or php. I'll read up on what it does exactly. Thanks for reply!

Hi,

I'm interested in trying out these apps:

https://github.com/gillkyle/sol-journal
https://github.com/trys/JournalBook

It says they need Firebase, Preact and IDB to work.

https://firebase.google.com/
https://preactjs.com/
https://www.npmjs.com/package/idb

Is this something that could work on Cloudron?

Thanks!

@murgero Thanks. That article helped me find the setting. Would have never guessed it's under the user profile.

I post on here instead of the app's forum because it's not really an important issue and I just wanted to hear what other users are doing. Also, it's kind of annoying to have multiple forum accounts for basic questions. Thanks again!

Hey guys,

Any idea how to enable notifications in the browser for new tickets?

I saw the modules on freescout's website and they're for mobile, slack, or telegram and I didn't see any options in the settings either.

Suggestions? Thanks!

@d19dotca Yeah, I get what you're saying. The process is not that bad though. As long as you keep the same settings, it's a drop and drop of the files and hitting the start button. It'll save them to the folder you had specified on a previous run and you'll be doing two things as once, resizing and crunching (less work for the server).

@d19dotca irfanview for batch editing (resize and crunching) https://www.irfanview.com/

@d19dotca said in How have you got your Matomo set-up?:

** I also enabled in that plugin to not count visits from sign-in admin users, I feel that keeps me from throwing off the analytic data a bit whenever I'm making a bunch of changes to the site where I'm needing to load up all the pages to check stuff in.

Nice catch. I forgot to turn that on after I was done setting things up. Thanks!

@jdaviescoates No problem. I forgot to mention that Firefox might give you a problem with error messages (just ignore them) but if Matomo doesn't seem to be registering any hits then try to disable DNT. With DNT on, I had issues with the hits showing up in the WP dashboard.
