Matrix 2.0 is coming closer.

Hello.

I noticed today that the search feature of my instance stopped working. Whatever I type, no results show up. I remember that I managed to search in document content at least once before. As I sparely need to use the app, I can't say if an update broke the search.

To start looking into this, what is the correct way to run an indexing task (docs) ?

Thanks.

• Summary: You get a link on a streaming service you don't use, and you want to hear the song anyway. Copy the link, paste it into the search bar, and the app hands back the same track on every other service it knows about. When the original link comes from Spotify you even get a short audio preview, so you can confirm it found the right song before you tap through. Playlists are deliberately out of scope. The app converts individual tracks, albums, artists, and podcasts, and it does that one job well instead of many jobs poorly.

• Notes: The demo wants you to enter a "popular" email address and ironically, not having Spotify made me discover that I also don't have a "popular" email service.

Just discovered that all my bookmarks are queued for indexing to have full text search. I guess this feature is not yet available or needs some setup?

Thank you @andreasdueren for the solution and all the extra explanation!

Do you know how synapse handles on which server a room is stored? Are the rooms solely on the server which initiated the conversation or are they mirrored across servers? Would that not mean that a room history is potentially always available if one of the servers does not enable the retention setting?

Continuing the discussion from What happens in the matrix channels where there are no more users ? Where goes the messages ? #8

I want to set up a maximum retention in order to keep the memory footprint low. To do so I added the following lines to my homeserver.yaml and am now waiting to see what it will actually do [1] :

retention:
  enabled: true # enables the retention, is enough to enforce it once per day
  default_policy:
    min_lifetime: 1d
    max_lifetime: 4w
media_retention:
  local_media_lifetime: 4w
  remote_media_lifetime: 4w

My first observation is that nothing appears in the room state. I started a new conversation with a matrix.org user and no default m.room.retention appears in the room state after its creation.

• Does the other server (matrix.org) need to enable the setting as well ?
• Is this only for purging empty rooms, not about auto-deleting old messages ?

Thanks for any info on the topic.

Hello.

I got a fresh Synapse install, with users managed by Cloudron (OIDC). How to make it possible to login from a mobile client (Element X and FluffyChat tried out) ?

Would it be possible to simply set password_config to the right setting ?

Thanks

EDIT: I finally managed with FluffyChat, I think you can delete this topic (;

@james I would suggest adding a section in the Ollama or Discourse documentation explaining how to reach the Ollama service, internally and externally. For now, I only test whatever comes to my mind but unfortunately, I can't figure it out. Feels like magic

First trial and error.

Added a new LLM entry in /admin/plugins/discourse-ai/ai-llms/new?llmTemplate=none.

• Named it "Ollama" and selected OpenAI as provider and qwen3.5:2b (pulled) as model.
• Set the URL to the Ollama instance and put the API key from it's cat /app/data/.api_key.
• Chose QwenTokenizer and 262000 context.
• Saved settings with the Submit button.

The "Run test" fails with

Non-streaming request failed: <html> <head><title>405 Not Allowed</title></head> <body> <center><h1>405 Not Allowed</h1></center> <hr><center>nginx/1.24.0 (Ubuntu)</center> </body> </html> 

• Changed URL to Ollama's ifconfig | grep "inet " | grep -Fv 127.0.0.1 | awk '{print $2}', like http://172.18.16.111:11434

The "Run test" fails with "Internal Server Error"

Came across the topic Self-Hosting an OpenSource LLM for DiscourseAI and will maybe give it a try with an Ollama instance if possible.

Hello.

Some time ago, I came across a blog post from Discourse where they present a translation feature using the AI plugin. It basically enables that each user can converse seamlessly in a chosen language: https://blog.discourse.org/2026/03/building-for-every-language/

The Discourse AI plugin is now bundled and can be enabled manually for available features.

As I take care of a multilingual forum, I was wondering if it is doable to have the AI translation run with a Cloudron Ollama instance:

• Did someone manage connect a local Ollama instance to the Discourse AI Plugin ?
• What would be a recommended requirement in RAM and model (SotA ?) to make this work gracefully ?
• Otherwise, which third-party provider would you recommend using for a low traffic Discourse site ?

Thanks.

@girish

Hello. The updates did solve it and the banner disappeared. Thx.

Hello. I get the following warning on my GRAV CMS Dashboard:

Login security: no trusted host is configured, so password reset and activation email links are built from the request host and can be spoofed. Set a Site Host in the Login plugin settings, or a Custom Base URL in System settings.

None of "Site Host" and "Custom Base URL" fields has a value for now. The app is installed under a different domain name than the Cloudron Dashboard. Any advice what to do ?

Thanks !

There's a fork with additional features in the news : https://itsfoss.com/cheezy-pizza/

@jdaviescoates Thanks. I can only confirm. Should have read the right posts.
I get the feeling that LAMP-doable apps need their show window as well.

It's perfect. Thank you, @james !
