Our board is a hangout, there’s almost no formal Q&A. On traditional boards we used there would be an informal method of agreeing with someone in which you would simply quote their post and submit that, sort of like quoting and saying “this” or 👆. Most boards would discourage it, but large quote pyramids were a standard result at times. After switching to Discourse, many of our members took issue with the inability to do this. Now that I think of it, we haven’t been seeing any of those anymore because of this. Maybe I’d change my mind seeing them reintroduced, but looking back on it (with possibly rose-tinted glasses) is a bit sad. Making an empty post is less of an issue. It can be achieved anyways by inserting a `
`. ---

I would be very surprised to hear that people totally abandoned a community just because they refuse to add an emoji or letter after a quote I think a much more likely reason is that the system is new and people hate change, Discourse introduces mountains of change over “traditional” forums. ---

Haha, you’d be surprised how much of an uproar there was over a few things. I didn’t expect it, but it took a bit of time for people to get used to the lack of pages. People argued in favor of pages for a while, and some still mention it now and then, but obviously there’s no changing that. I think generally we maybe expected more flexibility than we found in Discourse. It shows up in odd places. It’s still a better alternative for a lot of different reasons. I can’t confirm how many have left for one or another reason; I think the people who actively complain were just expecting lots of good change and no bad change. I’ve been surprised by a couple of things, but when I post about them here it’s generally in trying to fix something harmless that the users would enjoy. Unfortunately the few devs that we have in our group either don’t have the time or don’t have the expertise to do much development on plugins or Discourse, but I saw this topic and wanted to mention that maybe an old feature (minimum post length zero) had possibly disappeared erroneously. Hardly a critical feature, but if it’s actually still working and I just don’t know what I’m doing then I’d love to hear about it. 😜 ---

真的很喜欢 Discourse，它速度快、功能强大，而且可配置项非常多（这是好事）。 我遇到了一个具体场景。我们有一个问答风格的论坛，有时问题非常简短，不需要正文内容，但管理员界面有最小 1 个字符的限制。 1. 能否为原始发帖人（OP）和回复者分别配置此限制？（即我希望 OP 可以不要求正文，而回复者则有特定的回复长度要求。） 2. 是否可以将限制设置为 0？（这仅适用于标准 Discourse 安装的使用场景。） 另外，是否可以通过插件更改主题的模板？（我是否应该开始研究插件开发？） ![Qf32T39](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/c/d/5/cd54829718649ea83ff7c9b0243b1ae730820612.png) ---

1. No 2. No 3. Topic template is set at the category level, that is not relevant to this topic ---

在编辑器底部添加字符计数器可能会很有用。我们在处理有字符限制的文稿时，会使用外部网站。 ---

抱歉，顶起这个旧帖子。 我们正在使用 discourse 来取代邮件列表。人们发送的邮件主题类似“今天晚上8点在红房子开会 EOM”，正文为空。这是可以接受的行为。因此，我想将 `min post length` 和 `min first post length` 设置为 `0`。如果我的理解 > [@codinghorror](#): > > 随意更改，包括零在内。 正确的话，这是可行的。不幸的是，对我来说，最小值似乎是 `1`。我哪里做错了？ ---

> [@sjjh](#): > > Apparently the minimum length seems to be `1` 这可能自 Jeff 在 2013 年撰写该帖子以来已有所更改，看起来帖子的最小字符数为 1，最大字符数为 2,000,000,000。 发送仅包含电子邮件主题的空电子邮件，对于邮件列表来说可能是可接受的行为，但这样沟通仍然会令人讨厌且不必要。 ---

> [@Architect](#): > > 人们发送只有邮件主题、正文为空的电子邮件，这对于邮件列表来说可能是可以接受的行为，但这仍然可能令人讨厌且沟通方式不必要。 虽然我同意这_可能_令人讨厌且不必要，但这并不意味着它_必须_令人讨厌且不必要。如前所述，在这种将 Discourse 用作邮件列表替代品的背景下，这是一种可接受的行为。老实说，我看不出有一个字符（例如“.”）比正文为空有什么优势。 因此，如果将其更改为“最小 1”，我将欢迎该配置选项允许“0”作为下限。 ---
