Today we released v4.5.0 of NodeBB, which contains a multitude of fixes, refactors, and several new AP-related features.

Dependency Updates :gear:

  • connect-multiparty was replaced with multer for multi-part request body handling
  • ioredis was replaced with node-redis as the former was deprecated with the latter being the recommended replacement

Chat and notification updates :left_speech_bubble:

  • Administrators are now able to toggle the chat join and leave messages in chat rooms
  • Clicking "mark all read" on the notification page now marks only those matching the filter, read

Analytics updates :chart:

  • Page requests from ActivityPub now correctly increment the unique visitors metric

ActivityPub :globe_with_meridians:

  • Top-level posts (OP) federating out now contain a summary of roughly the first 500 characters, instead of sending the entire post content
  • Two-way Relay support (Litepub-style)
  • Auto-categorization logic for incoming post content from remote sources
  • Ability to add remote categories to the forum index

Twissell hmm, chat notifications have always been delayed by a minute or so. Maybe less.

It is done so that subsequent messages sent within the same rough time frame can be batched together.

This is less of an issue with notifications on site, but can be an issue when you are emailed for every single chat message.
