Checklist Plugin - Interactive Checkboxes made Simple

stephenz · 2018-12-17 05:10:39 UTC

I’m pretty sure the system is on beta, this is the current version per the dashboard.

v2.2.0.beta6 +5

codinghorror · 2018-12-17 05:49:38 UTC

It should work on latest, as we provide this plugin by default in our hosting.

stephenz · 2018-12-17 05:50:27 UTC

should I do a docker rebuild task for good measure?

bangarang · 2019-01-11 21:19:34 UTC

is it somehow possible to add a checklist button into the composer? so that users can integrate this feature more easily.

Hi there,

thanks for this excellent plugin! We just wanted to let you know about a minor issue where the checkboxes are rendered slightly displaced when using this plugin together with the likewise excellent Daemonite Material Theme.

We already filed an appropriate issue including a workaround for your reference there, see Rendered checkboxes in post content slightly off · Issue #15 · Daemonite/discourse-material-theme · GitHub. However, it might have to be fixed by an improvement on the discourse-checklist side, so we are also posting this here.

With kind regards,
Andreas.

I ran ./launcher rebuild app hoping that would allow my site to start displaying the checkboxes again
the site is also being maintained to the latest version, being v2.3.0.beta1 +45.
Checkboxes still aren’t displaying per the below

The plugins I’m running on this site are:

Has anyone got any suggestions of what I could try to get checkboxes working again?

cpradio · 2019-02-06 13:23:33 UTC

Do you have the Site Setting “Checklist enabled” checked?

stephenz · 2019-02-06 19:09:34 UTC

Yes, this setting is enabled

cpradio · 2019-02-06 19:33:01 UTC

Hmm… I can’t reproduce the issue you are seeing. My sandbox on latest is running it fine.

Is there a way I can completely remove the plugin then reinstall it? The plugin has worked in the past, then one upgrade, it stopped working and hasn’t worked since.

cpradio · 2019-02-06 21:43:44 UTC

Are you 100% certain your app.yml is pointing to discourse/discourse-checklist and not cpradio/discourse-plugin-checklist?

stephenz · 2019-02-06 21:58:12 UTC

Here’s an excerpt from my app.yml

## Plugins go here
## see https://meta.discourse.org/t/19157 for details
hooks:
  after_code:
    - exec:
        cd: $home/plugins
        cmd:
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/docker_manager.git
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-checklist.git
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-voting.git

stephenz · 2019-02-07 21:28:25 UTC

@cpradio if I wanted to reinstall this plugin, would this be the best approach?

backup
comment out the line for checklist in the app.yml
run ./launcher rebuild app
uncomment the line for checklist in the app.yml
run ./launcher rebuild app

Or will this miss removing any files that might be left somewhere?

cpradio · 2019-02-08 00:10:25 UTC

Reinstalling won’t change anything sadly. There must be some sort of conflict. Either with a theme or another plugin

Stephen · 2019-02-08 07:38:52 UTC

Use /safe-mode but only disable the current theme first to ascertain whether this is related to a styling issue:

stephenz · 2019-02-17 19:15:28 UTC

I made a change in my app.yml from this

hooks:
  after_code:
    - exec:
        cd: $home/plugins
        cmd:
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/docker_manager.git
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-checklist.git
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-voting.git

to this

hooks:
  after_code:
    - exec:
        cd: $home/plugins
        cmd:
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/docker_manager.git
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-checklist.git
##          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-voting.git

Then ran ./launcher rebuild app

In any case, discourse-voting was disabled in the admin console before this above test.

Since that change:

my account is able to use checklist properly, other accounts still cannot
my account is an admin account.

Separately on your suggestion @Stephen …

I don’t fully understand where or how I apply this suggestion, can you please tell me where this GUI option is? I assume that I use the /safe-mode when I’m doing the ./launcher rebuild app command?

Stephen · 2019-02-17 19:18:18 UTC

No, you visit yoursiteurl/safe-mode

stephenz · 2019-02-17 19:35:47 UTC

Thanks @stephen, found the UI

Will my selection of the options impact the whole site, or will it just cause the site to render according to the selections for that client only?
Also, should I try this on the problem usernames instead of my one(which seems to be working ok)?

Stephen · 2019-02-17 20:15:13 UTC

Are those accounts all using the same theme? Aside from admin how do they differ? Have you repro’d through impersonation?

stephenz · 2019-02-19 22:47:05 UTC

No user has customised their theme, including my admin account.
I can’t see any other differences amongst the accounts.
I just impersonated one user and I’m able to see checkboxes rendering properly.
