    OK, Tweet support is working again.

    I modified an existing Twitter plugin to make it work well for our purposes. Hopefully this will work for a while. (@Axtremus the name of the plugin is nodebb-plugin-twitter-klaus).

      Could we get the banner put back at the top of the page?
      Maybe it's called a ribbon.
      I find it was more efficient in navigating than the big banner/ribbon on the bottom of the page.
      Not a huge deal, I just liked it.

      @Rainman I don't see a difference. You mean the "The New Coffee Room" banner at the top? It's still there.

        Looks like the "&gif" function is broken as well...

          No, I deactivated it on purpose. I have the impression that nobody has been using it, and it’s a potential source of confusion and buggy interactions with other plugins.

            Ah, OK. I'd rather keep it stable than worry about the minor hassle of finding a gif and pasting the URL into the "picture" field.

              Expect a few more periods of downtime (usually at most a few minutes). Need to shuffle a few things on the harddrive.

                I need to do some more maintenance that will likely require half an hour or so of downtime. It's also conceivable that I'll completely screw up the server while doing so. I've just downloaded a fresh backup for that case, but if that happens it may take longer (but I promise to limit the downtime to a galactic year). I'll do that tonight (European time), when there's usually less traffic on tncr.

                (admins: I need to resize the main partition to make use of the full 40GB of hdd space we have. The partition size is only 20GB because we initially started with a smaller server. We are slowly running out of space with 20GB, but the 40GB we have will likely last for a long time).

                  My noncomputer brain is overawed at what-all you make happen here. To me you are the Wizard of TNCR.

                  Thanks for all that you do. 🐵

                    OK, sorry for the interruption. I'm quite glad everything went well. Resizing partitions can be a little nerve-wrecking. But we should be good now for quite a while.
