baris How should I find it in the admin panel or in the source code on the server?

Edit:
Ok I found the problem! grep -r ";cc0 1.0 universal" - there was problem with depreacted plugin nodebb-plugin-html5videoplayer - I removed this and know everythong works fine!

Thanks a lot for your quick help! This is my first time using NodeBB.

[baris@community.nodebb.org]

Paweł no problem, yeah you can grep for stuff in the node_modules directory to find the culprit. Or you can disable plugins one by one. ./nodebb plugins command shows active plugins.

If I try to update I get this...

But my nodebb is running the latest.

Any tips?

[sketchucation@community.nodebb.org]

Ok, so after a clean manual install we can't get this plugin to work...

Now it is telling us that the previous v1.... is the latest?

[julian@community.nodebb.org]

sketchucation you should be able to install the latest version from the command line

[sketchucation@community.nodebb.org]

julian we did that

we are running latest NodeBB version and latest Preview plugin

It does not display previews for us unfortunately.

If we disabled the plugin it will not leave the active list and it then displays as latest

Is there paid support available?

[julian@community.nodebb.org]

sketchucation support is available with our hosting plans. Community installs would be supported through this forum

Perhaps there is an issue with the package manager. I will have to look into it.

[julian@community.nodebb.org]

sketchucation if you've installed v2.0.13, then that is the latest version. Make sure that you run ./nodebb build after activating it.

Are you able to access the settings page for that plugin?

Lastly, what do you mean when you say you have installed the latest version of NodeBB? Please let me know the version number. v3.12.1

[julian@community.nodebb.org]

sketchucation okay, so nbbpm reports this:

> The plugin author suggests that you install v1.3.3 for your copy of NodeBB v3.12.1

This is correct. For your version of NodeBB, you are supposed to install v1.3.3. The 2.x branch of link-preview is meant for NodeBB v4.

If paid self-hosted support does become an option I'd be happy to avail of it

We had v1, updated to v2 and then this issue appeared when we deactivated

We then uninstalled and did a clean v2 install and we ended up with other issues

So we could have something fundamentally amiss in our nodeBB install. I don't know?

But with Preview completely off it works fine. But rich embeds would be a priority for us to get sorted.

[julian@community.nodebb.org]

sketchucation you should install v1.3.3 of the plugin. We can debug further as to why the plugin is not working after that version is installed.

[sketchucation@community.nodebb.org]

julian thanks for your help. we'll jump on that 2moro and report any issues

[kirillevo@community.nodebb.org]

Wow! Just what I was looking for!

It would be nice to add Telegram link customization.

KirillEvo what's a telegram link? Like an invite code?
