eleazar Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Tuesday morning is over and nothing happened. The Prestashop team is really the uncrowned master at arousing great expectations and then delivering nothing - at least never at the announced time. Anyway... maybe I ought to be careful with such statements, because politeness seems to have the highest value and apparently ranks far above expert knowledge, as one can study here: https://github.com/PrestaShop/welcome/pull/43#discussion_r232677106 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttoine Posted November 13, 2018 Author Share Posted November 13, 2018 Hello, Part of the maintenance has been done this morning with no impact on the forum. Another part of the maintenance will be operated between 14h00 and 16h00. I just get the information now. About the GitHub discussion: https://github.com/PrestaShop/welcome/pull/43#discussion_r232729613https://github.com/PrestaShop/welcome/pull/43#discussion_r232948886 Please note that between my two comments, there was an agressive comment from @snowycatsoftware that has been deleted by its author. Sometimes, it seems that people don't assume afterward. Respect and politeness should always be the bases for contributions. This is the case in many successful open source projets with a Code of conduct. This is also the case since this summer on Stackoverflow. This is now the case for Linux since October. And, really I hope that this will happen with the PrestaShop open source project. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joseantgv Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 @ttoine Some improvements: - Highlight URLs. They are not clickable: - Now that it's possible to paste images from clipboard, the allowed size per customer should be increased. 100Mb is very little Thanks!

ttoine Posted November 14, 2018 Author Share Posted November 14, 2018 A quick work about the issue we had from yesterday evening to this morning: the new theme was not correctly setup, introducing errors with some static files like javascript. This is fixed now, and the colors and logo are back. At the bottom of the website, you can choose between the PrestaShop look, and the default Invision Community look. I would like to thanks everybody who reported the issues and helped us. You are awesome 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttoine Posted November 14, 2018 Author Share Posted November 14, 2018 @joseantgv strange behavior for the links. However, in the screenshot, it seems that this is the first post a new member. This should be related to the spam protection. @eleazar thanks for your feedback, you are right, the bots are visible in the list of current visitors. There are other priorities after the forum migration, but this is now on the todo list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, spam seems to keep appearing. Sorry for my English Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttoine Posted November 19, 2018 Author Share Posted November 19, 2018 Yes, there are still some spam, testing and installing the advanced spam filter is the next step of the forum improvements. We needed first the new version to be in production. That's why the flood control (one post per minute) is still enabled for all users. Otherwise, spammers could really go faster. I will see if I can remove it for moderators. But in order to disable it for standard Members, it would mean that a new group must be created, something like "New Members". And when they have posted a defined number of contents, a rule should then move them in "Members". About the links: if you want it to work, you must start each link with http:// or the detector will not handle it. (That's the results of my tests).

ttoine Posted November 20, 2018 Author Share Posted November 20, 2018 I can't see a way to filter by 'forum levels', this is independent from "user group". However, I can use the number of posts (the same data than forum levels) to create rules to move users in groups. Not sure this is retro-active, so the best way seems to create a "new member group". Now that the migration is done, the team is working on improvements on the preprod, so when it will be back again, I will do this kind of tests. This is part of the next step: fight spam. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Patron Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I noticed that when in form the left top PS logo links back to forum so it's hard to get say to PS....maybe link should be ps.com? great work on improving forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttoine Posted November 29, 2018 Author Share Posted November 29, 2018 yes, that's the default behavior of all CMS and forums, no? 😉 but usually, it's when it is on a dedicated domain, not in a subfolder, you are right. that's why I added a link "go back to prestashop.com". do you feel it is critical to change this link? that would mean edit the theme template, and I would like to avoid that.
