v4.0.0 Upgrade Support

If you have problems upgrading to v4.0.0, you can ask for help here.
All those plugins are likely working with 4.x we just need to release new versions after updating the compatibility string. 4.x didn't have plugin breaking changes like 3.x did.

@baris @karsten13 agreed, all of those plugins should be working fine with latest NodeBB

I enabled ActivityPub, but I didn’t fully understand how it works.

I created a topic, but when I search for the link, it doesn’t appear NodeBB web site.

@cagatay can you share the link with me?

@cagatay loads fine: https://community.nodebb.org/post/https%3A%2F%2Fefelsefe.com%2Fpost%2F24380
I had to use the post URL though, to bring it in to this forum. I'll see if I can get the topic URL working instead.
The topic doesn't show up here automatically because there is no existing connection between this forum and yours.

@julian The manual addition feels odd because when I searched for your link, it appeared directly on my site and stayed there. However, my content did not appear on your site, neither as a link nor as normal content. If this connection is going to be made through manual addition, it doesn’t seem to make much sense to me.

@cagatay content discovery via ActivityPub is powered through follow relationships – I wrote more about that in our documentation
https://docs.nodebb.org/activitypub/discovery/
When you "searched for my link", that is the same thing that I did for you. You instructed your NodeBB to load my topic/post, and conversely, I did the same to load your topic into this community.
The reason that right now it requires someone to search for it is because you don't follow me at NodeBB, and I don't follow you at efelsefe.com
once I follow your account, your topics will automatically show up here in my world category. -

@julian If it is a one-sided follow instead of mutual, will it not be visible post?

I had tried the alpha and now have to go back to normal upgrade route.
aftergit fetchit said Fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
whats going on here?
On another point, upgrading can be a hassle. It in theory, could something be coded so an admin could upgrade from the ACP?

try
git reset --hard origin/v4.x -

@cagatay I think so. If A follows B, then B sends stuff to A, but A doesn't send stuff to B.

@[email protected] can you please update the category handles on discussions.thenexus.today? There was a bug that caused some categories to not respond to webfinger request appropriately, so they could not be found on fedi.
You can just change them from one handle to another, and then back again.
That should fix the issue with the testing category not being able to be found.

@julian done, thanks for looking at this!
while I've got you on the line ... i'm still experimenting with Bridgy Fed and last night i had somewhat unexpected results (although maybe it's just that my expectation is wrong). CCing @snarfed.org and @quillmatiq as well ...
There were three accounts involved:
* [email protected] and jdp23.thenexus.today (on Bluesky) are following each other
* thenexusofprivacy.net on Bluesky and [email protected] *aren't* following each other (but thenexusofprivacy.net *is* following ap.brid.gy, and bridges correctly in other situations)
[email protected] posted https://discussions.thenexus.today/topic/28/testing-federation-from-nodebb-to-bluesky-again-... and it federated correctly. Yay! Here's the bridged equivalent: https://bsky.app/profile/jon.discussions.thenexus.today.ap.brid.gy/post/3lgwoj4vkgbd2
[email protected] replied and it federated back. also yay!
but when thenexusofprivacy.net replied, it *didn't* federate back. not so yay.
Any idea what's going on?

I did upgrade to v4.0.1 yesterday and now have an issue displaying some forum posts on apple devices (under safari or chrome).
As example you can take a look at https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/19306/new-module-installer
Problem is the preview of the 4 images from the topic at the top right. On an iphone they are overlapping so you can not really operate.
Is there an option to disable this preview?
Thanks!

You can hide it with custom css in the ACP,
.topic-header [component="topic/thumb/list"] { display: none }This is only happening on apple devices?

nothing changes v4.0.1
I think this ActivityPub implementation is only designed for NodeBB's own page. It’s not very useful for sites that use NodeBB.
