Yesterday everything worked fine for me. Today I did not receive a notification of receipt of Merit. The remaining notifications come and everything works fine.

So, you received them, but they came up late? If so, how late?

My logs show you should have been notified of them seconds after they were sent.

It works fine from my end (yesterday at least), do you normally receive notifications?
You could check to ensure you've enabled merit notification, click on the menu option to check

If it's not enabled, just click on enable merits

Today I received Merit for two different posts:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.54773906
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.54267983

but notifications did not come to the bot. What could be the problem?

Topic tracking is great but can we have a Section tracking??? Like for instance, if you want to buy some nice physical coin, then you can keep an eye on what people sell and you get notification for every new topic in Collectables

It's possible. I will take a look on how I can do this. Thanks!

Can you share the reason for using either trashcan or total delete?

We usually use the trashcan board when we want to leave a redirect message, like this one or, if we want a topic to be easily restorable (when/if needed).

Quote from: LoyceV on June 30, 2020, 01:25:18 PM

I thought all topics could be restored after deletion.

I meant to say "easily" restorable, because a removed topic can only be restored by admins, while the ones moved to the trashcan can be restored by global mods as well.

Staff members like myself, can see the board and its content, but cannot restore topics from there.

That topic has been moved to the "Trashcan" board (restorable), and not completely removed, that's why it's not showing in the modlog.

This trashcan messes up notifications.

I am bit perplexed.

I'd say open a new topic (in Meta), to find out what happened to this topic. It looks like it was deleted without showing up in modlog. I didn't know that's possible, but it sure seems like it now.

Do you know when did this happen? I checked the modlog and I can't find anything about this thread being removed. The bot scrappes the modlog page and checks for entries about topics that got removed ("Remove topic: X in topic #Y by member #Z"). If this happened before I implemented the feature, he can't know it got deleted. I checked the database and I couldn't find it.

I am bit perplexed. The thread is new, it was created yesterday or so and got deleted several hours ago. I believe that feature was already implemented by that time.

The very last post is http://loyce.club/archive/posts/5470/54707466.html

How long does it take usually to scrap a modlog event and send a notification to particular user? Just noticed that my post count hasn't changed, it is supposed to be 4 posts less after removing of thread, isn't it?

Good to see that there is a notification with the use of the telegram because sometimes I do not have time to check on my profile what are the merits I have and what are the notifications came from my account it is very helpful to me. I'm looking for more updates on it thank you.

Hi TryNinja! Thanks for the another great feature, but how exactly is it supposed to work? Recently, a thread from newbie has been deleted, so have my four posts with it. However, I haven't recieved a notification (deleted posts option is on).

Update: Deleted posts notification! Suggested by @LoyceV here.

You can now choose to get a notification when a post you made vanishes because its parent thread got deleted. The notification will also have a link to a copy/archive of your original post (only the unedited original version, since I can't re-scrape posts to keep them updated).

- You will get a notification if you post in the thread X and the same thread gets deleted by a mod later.
- You will NOT get a notification if your post was manually deleted by a mod. The forum already PM's you about this.

Everybody has this option disabled by default. To enable it, just go to "Notifications" in the menu, and click "Enable Deleted Posts". If you can't see this option, run /menu and check again.

As explained by Loyce in his suggestion post, you will not get a notification if the author of the thread gets nuked OR if your post gets deleted by an user in his self-moderated thread. This is ONLY for when a mod manually deletes the whole thread and your post gets deleted in the process, which isn't notified by the forum.

Example:

Quote from: LoyceMobile on June 15, 2020, 10:18:58 AM

Also worth mentioning: it only works for posts made in the last ~10 months (for now).

I will organize the new strings later for those who want to help translating them to your language.

If you find any bugs, please let me know.

As far as I know...

My posts weren't deleted manually by creator or moderator.

The creator of the said topic wasn't nuked https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/josefjix-2679380

Link is still correct, only thing that is missing is correct title name.

This is an old post I scrapped from Loyce's files. Most of them have no title because he didn't included it on the file. However, I have made so the bot scrappes the post again and updates the database with the correct title when someone receives a merit for it. With the recent updates I have made (fixing most posts author uid), something had broken up. It should be fixed now. Thanks.

edit: Pretty much all posts have been updated with their author UID and a lot of them got their title fixed. This means that almost all users in the /addresses page will come with their UID when you copy the table bbcode.

@TryNinja

One thing I noticed is that some topics don't have title showing in telegram bot.
For example, let's take my topic : [LEARN] Phishing Quizzes - Beginners & Experts

This is info I get in telegram when I receive merit for that:
~Unknown Title~

Link is still correct, only thing that is missing is correct title name.

Is theymos ok with that? I could do something similar but with different proxies. That sounds like breaking his 1 request/sec rule, though.

Quote from: LoyceV on June 28, 2020, 01:50:26 PM

As far as I know, that's not allowed. I download 1 page, then wait a second. I'm already pushing the limits a bit by adding this to my "normal" scraping, but that's less than 1 page per second. I don't want to cause more load than I'm doing already.

I did the same actually, I had a loop, and I limited the requests to one per second. But from my understanding, the 1 request/sec rule is for the IP addresses and not accounts? If you do many requests, your IP address will get blocked automatically after a while so even if you wanted to break it, you won't be able to but I'll P.M theymos and get a confirmation about this before starting anything. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Not sure how you guys are doing it, but I was thinking of writing a small .NET Core console app to run it on multiple servers (different IPs).

I've now scraped 90% of the topics, I expect to be done in a couple of weeks. How are you on disk space?
Note: I didn't keep the original post date, but it's quite easy to get an estimate.
Note2: I almost forgot: when I'm done scraping, I have to re-do some local boards (with weird layout).

Honestly, not that good. Tongue

My VPS plan only comes with 45 GB of storage and I'm already using 45% of it. The main issue is that the database indexes (that lets people search the database without needing to wait 5+ minutes) are using half of the storage. So, it basically doubles the size of the database. I sent an email to my VPS asking for their prices on additional space and they charge $0.09/month per extra GB.

edit: I was thinking about maybe getting a second VPS with more storage to host my files/database. E.g: $3.30/month for one with 256 Gb (up to 3 TB for $5) VS my current one where an extra 211 gb would cost another ~$19/month.
