NodeBB 4.2.0
-
@eeeee are you running v4.2.0?
-
Wow, wild! It's been incredible seeing how quickly NodeBB has been getting updates. You're hard to keep up with!
-
@julian I have upgraded to v4.2, but the world posts with no details came in before upgrade. I will keep eye on that as it could be fixed when something new comes in

What is the process to follow a federated account?
-
@CWSmith You can search for a user either via the search bar or in the
/userspage. Just paste in their handle (e.g.@[email protected].) The follow button is then in their profile much like following a local user on NodeBB. -
@eeeee if you have successfully followed the Lemmy community, then any new topics they share will be shown in the "Shares" page of their profile.
It's less-than-ideal, so I am refactoring that entire system now so that you will be able to "browse" that community like a regular NodeBB category.

As for the follow issue, try cancelling the follow, waiting perhaps a minute, and then following again, then wait a minute, and then refresh the page

@julian said in NodeBB 4.2.0:
> Added button to view original profile of remote usersCould this button be made to open the original profile in a new tab?
Actually, it occurs to me that the "View Original Post" behaves the same. I'd much rather all "view original ..." buttons opened the remote content in a new tab.
-
@AltCode you can middle click it
-
@julian Can’t middle-click with MacBook’s trackpad
But I could cmd-click it for the same effect, yes (and I already do that); it’s just I’d rather it opened in a new tab by default.
That how any other external link is treated after all, e.g. example.com <- clicking that opens in a new tab by default.
-
@AltCode ackchyually... it opens in the same tab for me.
... because there's a user setting for it
I'll update it to respect that user setting.
