I thought we were no longer having this after Beta 8. Thanks!

0.1.1

This update removes the migration in case it causes problems with Flarum installations that use the table prefix, and because Flarum core never removed the bio column.

Thank you!

Great, thank you very much. Hi @matteocontrini 😃 will see soon also your forum upgraded to beta 8?

matteocontrini

peopleinside at some point, yes, but we're very much off topic here 😉

peopleinside

matteocontrini Right sorry. I am very happy to see this extension, activated and works great! Very useful, thanks again to developers!

@Kyrne will be nice if a suspended user are unable to edit user bio that can contain spam links or dangerous links. If an admin edit the suspend user bio user seems still be bale to edit this field.

Will be nice if a suspend user cannot edit user bio of his profile as there is no other way to disable an user, at the moment without mayby another extension.

peopleinside good point.

neogeo

The links on user bio have the tag rel="nofollow" ?

Kyrne

neogeo Yes, that is true for all links in the forum. This is to prevent people from SEO gain spamming your forum.

neogeo

Would be amazing if this extension have this feature to choice:

Do you want that users can introduce links?

Ralkage

neogeo ah, you mean adding a setting to parse links so that they aren't clickable or just disallow links altogether?

neogeo

Good point! two options are cool but I think I prefer Disallow Links (so users just write about himself or whatevah they want to say)

But maybe it could do something similiar to this on the extension's configuration:

Do you want that users can introduce links?

Yes (clickeable)
Yes (only text)
No (fuck links/spam/socialshitnetworks) 😛

pentarou

Thank you, it works great! 😃

matteocontrini

Would it be possible to forbid suspended users from changing their bio? Usually when a user is suspended it's because it's spamming or otherwise writing something inappropriate, so it's not great to let them write anything in the bio anyway...

It's a similar problem for profile pictures, but that belongs to core.

matteocontrini I would suggest creating an issue if it doesn’t already exist so that it doesn’t get forgotten 🙂
