Existe-t-il d'autres solutions de contournement à l'absence de modération par catégorie, comme plusieurs instances du forum ?

Bonjour,

Je suis déçu de constater que je n’ai réalisé l’absence de permissions spécifiques aux catégories pour la modération qu’après avoir tout configuré, etc. Cependant, j’aime beaucoup ce forum dans l’ensemble et je cherche un moyen de contourner ce problème. Je vois qu’il existe un système d’étiquettes ; existe-t-il un moyen d’avoir des permissions personnalisées basées sur les étiquettes appliquées aux sujets ou quelque chose de similaire ?

L’objectif principal est le suivant : le développeur A a la catégorie A, le développeur B a la catégorie B. Les deux peuvent voir les catégories de l’autre, y publier et voir le reste du forum comme des utilisateurs normaux. Cependant, le développeur A ne peut modifier les messages, les épingler, supprimer des éléments, etc., que dans la catégorie A, et il en va de même pour le développeur B et la catégorie B.

Je sais que cela n’est pas actuellement possible ni avec les niveaux de confiance ni avec les permissions de modération, mais existe-t-il d’autres contournements pour restreindre la modification de tout contenu sauf dans la catégorie qui vous est attribuée ? Même si cela consiste simplement à masquer les fonctionnalités de modification ou de suppression dans les autres catégories en fonction d’un paramètre spécifique à l’utilisateur ou de l’appartenance à un groupe.

Si cela n’est toujours pas possible, quelles sont les exigences pour configurer plus d’un forum dans l’image Docker, même si cela utilise la même base de données, peut-être avec un préfixe différent ou autre ? Au lieu de restreindre par catégorie, il pourrait s’agir d’un autre petit forum pour une équipe de développement. Je pourrais créer un compte administrateur sur chaque forum, puis accorder des permissions de modération à chaque équipe sur son propre forum, où ils pourraient l’organiser comme ils le souhaitent. Je suppose que, une fois Docker et la base de données opérationnels, serait-il fou de penser qu’une autre instance du site pourrait fonctionner indépendamment depuis un sous-domaine ?

Je sais que ce n’est pas une comparaison parfaite, mais le dernier forum que j’ai utilisé utilisait des étiquettes pour autoriser ou interdire les modifications : un groupe est assigné à une étiquette ; si l’étiquette est parente et qu’ils ont les permissions pour le parent, alors ils peuvent faire ce qu’ils veulent avec tout ce qui s’y trouve. Y a-t-il des modifications disponibles pour Discourse dans ce sens ?

J’apprécie vraiment tout éclairage que vous pourriez avoir sur ce sujet, en particulier des informations sur l’exécution de plusieurs instances si vous avez de l’expérience en matière de performances et des étapes nécessaires pour y parvenir.

Merci !

You can use Multisite configuration with Docker to run multiple instances.

Is there any rough (very rough, as in it uses 10% more than standard, to it uses 50% of standard is fine as long as anyone has at least used it) estimate of what % increase of resources another instance requires, I would imagine once the overall setup is there its not a crazy amount more.

It’s not much more. It might work with a 2gb server, though I’m using 4gb.

You can also use one site as the SSO master and have the others authenticate against it.

If you can trust moderators to moderate one category, can you not trust them not to moderate the others?

My site is going to be for developers of completely different teams. Some of which may be in competition with each other. Each category would be their own section for their team. There is no need or want for anyone to do any editing or moderation outside of their own section. I would handle the global moderation. Do I expect there to ever be any issues? No. Could there be? I hope not, but yes, there could be. Why risk it if I don’t have to? If each team has their own permissions and they can support their users within their own confines, then everything is good.

As far as running multiple instances. In your best estimate, how many instances could possibly be run on say, a 4gb machine, or perhaps an 8?

Given that you don’t have issues with traffic, you could definitely do eight. I think that I have more than that.

I meant how many do you think I could manage to run with 8gb of ram, but it is good to know that I could at least do 8 to start out with. I currently have 4gb in my VPC How do you have it setup? I saw people link and talk about separate containers, is that how you went about it?

Ideally I could just have one board and the categories locked down, but unfortunately, it just doesn’t seem like that is going to work. How would the SSO going back to the main DB handle permissions of the local instance? Would that not end up having the same issues just across multiple boards now instead of one? If someone is made a mod of one board, does the SSO then carry over to other boards because it is centralized or are mod / admin permissions localized just to the board in which they are assigned?

Does doing it that way let you centrally manage the users? Say user A is using board B, but its authenticating through board A, does cutting them off from board A also cut them off from board B, or does B have its own settings in which they could still get on?

Each board would have separate admins and all on. Sso would just mean that they don’t have to have multiple passwords and that logging in to one site would log you in to all.

Yes. I have separate data and web containers.

The offer possibility is that you don’t need separate moderators. It sounds like you’ll have a set of people who know each other. Do you anticipate having many messages that will need I be deleted because people are behaving badly? Perhaps you can just lock down the category and everyone will behave

It is not so much deleting things, but possibly, and occasionally. As I said, the board is for developers to be able to communicate with their users. Each developer / development team creates a different app or suite. Most of them do not know each other, but they all make plugins and what not for the same parent application, that is the only thing that ties everyone together. Which is why its important that the users can view and post in all categories, because I alone own 30-40 different plugins, so I would be all over the board. I want the dev to be able to create and manage their own FAQ, be able to sticky it at the top of their own section, be able to post tutorial videos, and also manage their own users posts if need be within their category. Each category would essentially act as their own mini forum that they manage, and each dev would be responsible for their section only.

I am paying for the hosting, doing all the setup and what not to support the developers because I want to, and I would hate to have them migrate over only to have some one else come in to their section and goof something up because they had more permission than they needed. Not one of these devs are meant to moderate the forum as a whole, because the forum as a whole is nothing but smaller subforums for each dev and their software and their users. Think of a category as its own forum, or an apartment in an overall building. You don’t want someone else to just come in to your apartment. You want a set of keys and you just do your thing in your apartment. Sure, every one of your neighbors seems like a good person, but you never know. Then here is a superintendent in case of an emergency, which would be me.

That being said, I will have to see about trying to do multi-instance and then I can just provide each dev / team their own whole forum. Unfortunately though, if that is the case, it might be better off to just find a different lighter weight forum system. I liked this one because of all the other features as well, but all of that other stuff make it pretty beefy requirement wise with all of the docker components and everything else. So it seems a bit of a waste to run several of them. I would love to be able to use this, if only it just had that one missing feature. I assumed it did when I installed it because it had every other feature under the sun from badges to tags, to a built in api, why would it not have category moderators? Every other forum out there basically does. I guess I should have specifically checked that.

Because I am still new to this forum, it may not let me reply anymore again, that happened last night as well, lol.

The only thing that I think you can do is to let non moderators pin a topic I believe that everything else you can do with normal permissions.

You can create a group and assign a group owner who can decide who can join the group. You can configure a category so that only members of the group can see it. A trust level three user can change the title and category of a topic.

A user can create and edit a FAQ.

You might get by fine with a single forum.

Thats the thing though, everyone needs to be able to see all of the categories, because someone who uses the product of one of them very well could use more than one. The only thing I want to be restricted is editing items in a category in which you are not assigned / allowed, but you can edit whatever is in your category. if you are the “owner” of it. That is pretty much what it boils down to.

We now have Category Group Reviewing. I’d love to hear if it works for your use case!
