(DNS issue) All links in topics pointing to community.openhab.org are broken

[marcel_erkel]

I’m not sure when it started happening but for some time now links in various topics which point to community.openhab.org are broken because the subdomain no longer exists. Simply replacing discourse with community fixes the problem.
Is it possible to add a CNAME record for community.openhab.org pointing to community.openhab.org to fix the links?

[Kai (Kai Kreuzer)]

That was a temporary setting after we migrated to a new server. It should only affect posts that were created in that timeframe. I’d rather fix the links in the posts than permanently adding a new sub domain - if there are not too many.

[Kai (Kai Kreuzer)]

I find 47 results: Search results for 'community.openhab.org' - openHAB Community

Interestingly, some of the posts are years old - I am a bit puzzled, why they point to community.openhab.org…

[marcel_erkel]

The search does not seem to be complete, e.g. this topic General Scene Rule for jsr223 is not in the search results yet it contains a link in the first line pointing to General best practices for maintainable rule and item arrangements

Also some links to emojis no longer seem to work, e.g. in this topic Apparently everyone can edit anyone's topic title - #6 by Larsen

I don’t know if some some search ‘n replace is possible over all topics. I only know discourse as a user, not as an admin.

@marcel_erkel

I don’t know if some some search ‘n replace is possible over all topics.

It is - I am just running it: Change the domain name or rename your Discourse - Self-Hosting - Discourse Meta

[marcel_erkel]

I checked a couple of topic and it looks good to me. The emoticons are working as well again.
Thanks Kai!

[Kai (Kai Kreuzer)]

You are too quick @marcel_erkel, the job is still running:

It should hopefully be fully done by tonight - but glad to hear that it seems to work well so far.

[Flole]

Now this opening post has been changed and doesn’t make sense anymore Took me a while until I realized that search/replace was done and that’s why it happened.

[marcel_erkel]

Yes, it would have been nice when the script had been a bit more sophisticated and would have only replaced discourse.openhab.org with community.openhab.org for actual link URLs. At least the links work again now.

Might the perceived disappearance of images be an unwanted side effect of this operation?

[bkumio (Mario)]

Dear all , perhaps related.

I do also have problems in viewing some of the older post with pictures. Especially on the UI marketplace : Broken Pictures in Marketplace

in a lot of the posts screenshots or pictures inposts they are replaced by a transparent link : https://community.openhab.org/images/transparent.png and e.g. only display a white space instead of the picture posted.

I am not an expert , but perhaps related?

Can you point me to a post that shows a https://community.openhab.org/images/transparent.png?

Here’s one that has the transparent.png.

Garbage Collection

[Bildschirmfoto von 2021-01-20 21-47-20] This widget will show you the upcoming garbage collection dates. Badges are shown the day before a garbage collection (in yellow) and on the day of garbage collection (in red). Note that I changed the code a bit to fake the badges in the screenshot for demonstration purposes. I read all the collection date values from my nextcloud calendar with the iCalendar binding. The text in the widget is in German but I think you get the idea. The badges ‘Heute’ and…

This is what it looks like for me:

Hey,

Timeline picker to setup heating, light and so on

Greetings to all Timeline Picker Users/Experts, i have tried to set-up v3 of Timeline picker in openHAB 4.3.2. Unfortuantely it did not work out as expected, no thing with UID: tlpicker:tlp:home was created. I nailed down the problem to be related to reverse proxy (nginx) running on my system and a REST authorization issue. Once i access MainUI via http call, the thing was created. This does not solve the problem via https. Now the already created thing is not found. Again due to a authorizati…

Solar switch

[image] This template creates a very simple rule that will allow you to control the state of a device based on the electricity that your house is spending. I will call this device ‘the load’. The goal is to have a ‘Solar Switch’ that switches on/off the load only when your solar panels are generating enough power. The rule should run every x minutes while the solar switch is on. This is achieved with another rule that you can create with the ‘Threshold Alert and Open Reminder’ template (thank…

Openhab + Shortcuts not work

Hello! I tried to create a shortcut with Apple Shortcuts. The shortcut works when connected to Wi-Fi. However, when not connected to Wi-Fi, the shortcut doesn’t work and times out. How can I solve this issue? nope19 [Automation E5394FDF-46AB-4B02-B750-2EE6DDFD69C8]

Lambda Heat Pump in OpenHab

Why is your rule necessary? I have an EU13L and a Fronius inverter (Symo GEN24 8.0 PLUS), which supplies “Grid Power” ( + from grid, - to grid ). Is it not simply possible to transfer this value (as a negative or positive value) to the heat pump (adress 102)? Lambda Support explained to me that the heat pump then decides or regulates itself according to the settings in the picture? Adress 102: Actual power (input or excess) Actual input power [UINT16 (min = 0W; max = 65535W)] or actual ex…

Could be any thread randomly picked.

Is this still being worked on? Makes it hard to search or use the forum properly. Or is everything lost now?

Don’t get me wrong, but this makes it unattractive and hard for newcomers (and even long time users).

[HolBaum5 (Holger Baum)]

Unfortunately, that still doesn’t seem to be working. This makes searching and using the forum very difficult.

see End-user configurable, Time-Profile-based control (For Lights, Heating, and more)!

For example, you can no longer view images there.

I’m sorry for this situation and I am aware of it. I have already tried a ton of fixes, but nothing helped. I have now a 16GB database dump that I want to analyze locally to see, if the missing associations can be somehow recovered. Unfortunately, I am right now on a business trip, so it’ll take a bit until I’ll find time again to dive deep into this…

FWIW, this topic here is about wrong links to other posts and I think this is fully fixed. The topic you mention about missing images is OH Community Site Images Missing?.
