**Interesting Topics**

#Bug

- **Self-hosted discourse instance appending “7d” to the FQDN**  
@odhiambo discovered that email links were landing on `…or.ke7d/admin` instead of `/admin`; @Moin traced it to a typo in the [Admin Quick Start guide](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/33295) and submitted a fix [read more](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/371144/1?silent=true).

- **Topic notifications emails not being sent if adding a Staff Colour to the post**  
@Richie confirmed that applying a staff colour changes `post_type` and prevents notification triggers; this was reproduced and logged for a future patch [link](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/370857/3?silent=true).

#Support

- **Why does the like count show for the entire topic?**  
@MihirR asked why the topic list displays topic-wide like counts; @merefield and @NateDhaliwal clarified that the like count reflects all likes in the topic, not just the first post [discussion](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/371146/1?silent=true).

- **Unable to grant Admin to user**  
@WolfpackFan couldn’t upgrade a migrated user to admin because they accepted the confirmation link in the wrong session; @JammyDodger walked through the correct workflow and resolved the issue [details](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/371161/1?silent=true).

- **How does group messaging work in Discourse?**  
@HAWK asked about associating chat channels with custom groups; the thread reviewed current behaviour of category-based auto-join channels and DM group chats, noting that true group-based auto-join remains a requested feature [chat here](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/371088/5?silent=true).

- **Not receiving admin verification email after setup**  
@Nicca reported never getting the initial verification email; @ondrej pointed to the [Troubleshoot email on new Discourse install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/16326/1?silent=true), while @JammyDodger and @pfaffman recommended switching SMTP to port 2525 or contacting DigitalOcean support [more](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/361629/10?silent=true).

- **General question about Saved Replies**  
@Rubi asked if templates can be restricted to moderators and how to create personal saved replies; @Moin explained that templates respect category security, demonstrated a staff-only subcategory setup, and linked to the [Discourse Templates plugin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/229250/2?silent=true) [read more](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/229250?silent=true#private-templates-2).

- **Hooks from: & to: syntax in yml to disable anonymous searches**  
@opcourdis blocked anonymous searches by setting `DISCOURSE_RATE_LIMIT_SEARCH_ANON_GLOBAL_PER_MINUTE: 0` in `app.yml`; @Falco confirmed this effectively disables `/search` for non-logged-in users without affecting authenticated sessions [discussion](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/370952/4?silent=true).

#Community

- **Use of Flags**  
@TonyG kicked off a debate on whether moderation equals censorship; voices ranged from @riking’s suggestion to start a PM with moderators to @Heliosurge’s broader view of content control, with @Jagster arguing for a clear distinction. @Lilly challenged the notion that toolkit limitations were at fault [thread](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/371077/6?silent=true).

#DATA & REPORTING

- **Anonymous views suddenly very high**  
@agemo saw a surge in “Anonymous” traffic on Google Analytics, speculating about AI-driven bot traffic; @ryan_olsen recommended fronting with CloudFlare and geo-blocking, and the discussion covered SSL mode nuances [details](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/251826/14?silent=true).

#General

- **DNS4EU, is it for me?**  
@patrickemin asked if the EU’s new DNS resolver enhances Discourse security; @Falco clarified that DNS4EU is a public resolver and only affects client-side lookups, not self-hosted Discourse instances [info](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/371193/1?silent=true).

#Feature

- **Push notifications PWA or iOS**  
@ryan_olsen inquired about true push on mobile PWAs; @NateDhaliwal pointed out that the Discourse mobile app supports native push, and guided on enabling browser notifications in `/my/preferences/notifications` [more](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/371129/1?silent=true).

- **Feedback for Ask Discourse**  
@Ed_S noted that Ask sometimes suggests posts in restricted categories; the thread is exploring ways to filter out non-public results and improve AI prompt handling [discussion](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/336805/7?silent=true).

#Announcements

- **AI Artifact User storage**  
@MachineScholar and @NateDhaliwal brainstormed a UI for custom artifact storage instead of SSH or Web Creator persona workarounds, highlighting use cases for code help forums [discussion](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/369822/7?silent=true).

- **Webinar: Meet the Discourse Customer Projects Team**  
@satonotdead asked why Zoom is used and whether recordings will be posted; @ondrej confirmed each webinar is recorded and shared under the [#webinar](https://meta.discourse.org/tags/webinar?silent=true) tag for on-demand viewing [details](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/370693/5?silent=true).

**Activity by the [@team](https://meta.discourse.org/groups/team?silent=true) Group**

- **@HAWK** participated in [How does group messaging work in Discourse?](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/371088/5?silent=true) and weighed in on [Use of Flags](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/371077/17?silent=true).

- **@Lilly** welcomed new users and resolved the “7d” URL issue in [Self-hosted discourse instance appending “7d”](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/371144/12?silent=true) and challenged assumptions in [Use of Flags](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/371077/21?silent=true).

- **@Falco** guided on disabling anonymous search in [Hooks from: & to: syntax](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/370952/5?silent=true) and reminded users to report any session-cookie bypasses to HackerOne, also clarifying token usage in [For what are all tokens used?](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/371186/2?silent=true).

- **@tobiaseigen** moved feedback into the right category for [Zoom for webinars](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/370993/6?silent=true) and fostered discussion around privacy, then streamlined the conversation on [Webinar: Meet the Discourse Customer Projects Team](https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/370693/7?silent=true).

That’s a wrap—between bug fixes, email deep-dives, and AI artifact dreams, the forum logged enough troubleshooting and brainstorming to power a rocket… or at least a really enthusiastic puppy playdate!
