We have just released v4.6.0 of NodeBB, containing fixes to our ActivityPub integration, minor fixes with SCSS, and some new functionality with topic templating.

ActivityPub Fixes

WordPress blogs can be properly pulled into NodeBB (via their URL) now
Fixed an error when moving a remote topic to another category
- This also fixed the issue where moved topics didn't update topic/post counters
Fixed bug where NodeBB could not properly process Link headers when it contained the standalone crossorigin directive
Notifications for replies to topics made in remote categories now show the appropriate user
Fixed bug where remote users were not able to post to a local category if registered-users privilege was removed (now checks fediverse pseudo-user)
Nested remote categories can now be removed from the ACP
Remote categories can be renamed for de-duplication purposes
Improved title generation for quote-posts

Core fixes

Persona theme now shows hidden (zero-character) links in post content
_variables.scss page in ACP > Appearance can now override Bootstrap variables
A template can be provided in a category's settings. This template is auto-populated in the composer when a new topic is being authored.

🆕 blog! “Getting started with Mastodon's Quote Posts - technical implementation details for servers”

Quoting posts on Mastodon is slightly complex. Because of the privacy conscious nature of the platform and its users, reposting isn't merely a case of sharing a URl.

I not only maintain a list of digital service providers that operate outside U.S. jurisdiction, but also a list of Fediverse sites that use non-U.S. domain extensions.

If these sites also use web hosting outside the United States, their websites could be fully outside U.S. legal reach — which is a smart move. 😉

You can see the list here:
