I’ve been looking through the github repository and on the forums as well, but I’ve not been able to find what I’m looking for yet. Apologies if this has already been answered before. I’m trying to add some extra data (just 1 custom value is all i need) to a post right before/when it’s created. I n…

I’m not entirely sure what you’re trying to accomplish, but what I think you need is: In an initializer (i.e. assets/javascripts/discourse/initializers/initializer_example.js.es6): import Composer from 'discourse/models/composer'; export default { name: 'initializer_name' initialize() { /…

I’ll give that a try, thanks!

▶ All client code from toggle-hidedevs.js.es6 It’s quite a mess, tried to clean it up as much as possible after all testing. Hope it makes sense without any comments. Thanks again for helping me out with this.

Replace all of your code with this and it will work. I just tested it. Let me know if you have questions about specific parts. Client import Composer from 'discourse/models/composer'; import { withPluginApi } from 'discourse/lib/plugin-api'; export default { name: 'test-initializer', initiali…

Will try this now and let you know :smiley: Thank you very much for all the help!

Works like a charm. Thanks a lot! :tada:
