The Twitter plugin seems to fail again. Sigh. Working on it.

This loaded just fine.

Hm, very strange. The plugin works for some tweets but not for others.

[George K]

Looks like the Twitter embed is broken (again).

It’s a Twitter issue. Happening on multiple websites.

You never know with Elon these days. It might be intentional.

Monster.

I'm installing updates.

Expect a few brief outages.

Let me know if something doesn't work anymore.

[George K]

What's new? Or is is just general maintenance?

[Klaus]

New versions of everything. I don't know how much is visible at the front end.

Well, I use a dark theme (don't remember exact name) and I notice that the text for thread titles with new/unread posts has turned a deeper shade of blue. :man-shrugging:

No complaint, just an observation.

Seeing HTML tags

Which just went away. Klaus magic.

I used to see unread threads in RED, and now they are BLUE. No big deal for me either.

Question: Why do the embedded pictures look so small. This seems to be a recent (last couple of months?) development.

Can you show me an example?

It's weird. I don't understand how NodeBB resizes pictures.

For example:

I'm screen-shotting (is that a word) of how it looks on my screen at a set width of the browser window.

But in the same thread, same browser width...

[Klaus]

Hm, the HTML code for all embedded images is the same. Maybe there's something in the CSS style or the like that controls the size.

In the forum setting, I found the following parameters. I played a little with the 760px limit and changed it to 0, but it doesn't seem to have an effect.

[George K]

Here's a better example:

I'm sorry, guys.

I wanted to fix the problem some people have with the Tweet embedding, but my attempt of solving it fucked up the forum so badly that I could not even undo my change! That's not what I expected.

I have now "solved" the problem by restoring to a backup from around 20 hours ago, which means that everything you posted in the last 20 hours is gone. Sorry about that!

I'll be more cautious next time I try something out
