I just got a notification today, from my hosting provider, that they got an abuse report regarding phishing pages & copyright infringement from my UNA install. I got hacked. The root index.php got injected code that served those phishing pages. templates/images/ also got a new malicious index.php file that Trident 14.0 reported modified before updating from 13.0.1.
I would like some guidance regarding what/how to check for sanity of the UNA scripts. If I wanted to delete the whole thing to re-upload fresh files, what do I need to check ?
Also, I noted that my sys_storage_tokens table, in database, currently weighs 583 MiB and the sys_sessions around 115 MiB. Thats' 92% of the total of the database, and that seems intense for a forum having 260 users, 222 forum discussions and 600 comments. Can I safely purge them ? Are they transient things ?
I have a multilingual Una community website and a multilingual main website. On the main website, each language has its own RSS feed. I want to display an RSS block on Una sidebars, displaying the RSS feed in user selected language. In other words:
if UNA lang == EN : display /en/feed.xml ; else if UNA lang == FR : display /fr/feed.xml
How can I do that ?
I have a technical question & answers discussion forum on UNA and I would like, in the future, to use questions and answers to train a Q&A AI bot. To do this, I need a way to programmatically identify the best answer to each question, and the number of votes seem like a good approach.
UNA discussions have an Up/Down vote feature for the whole discussion (assumed to be linked to the first post), but it seems that the answers (or comments) only have the "like" button.
How can I enable Up/Down votes for discussions replies/comments ?
I have installed a translation package on top of the English default one. Now I'm trying to make discussions multilingual.
I managed to add a "language" custom data field to the Add/Edit/Search discussions forms, so users can tag their posts with the right language.
Where I struggle is to be able to filter discussions by language on the discussions home page, so users will see only the relevant discussions. I didn't find blocks to add in the page.

I write a lot everyday and I'm used to do it in Markdown, to avoid dealing with "rich" editors like TinyMCE and the likes. Leaving the keyboard to format text with the mouse is a bad workflow when you have to basically type all day - I first implemented a Markdown parser into a WordPress plugin and now moving to Hugo for this reason. I have seen that the wiki pages can be edited in Markdown, but I didn't find info for other fields in the website (discussions, posts, notes, etc.) and the Markdown syntax doesn't seem to be parsed.
Beside Markdown, the real goal is also to use Mermaid, which I already implemented in Hugo and WordPress. Once you declare a code block with class mermaid, you just have to load the static JS in the page to have it rendered client-side.
In UNA 13.0.0-RC3, after setting up the "payments" module to accept both PayPal API and Stripe, when going to user settings I only get the PayPal option to add credentials (and it works). The doc says only Stripe and PayPal are fully working, but I get no trace of Stripe config. Is that normal ?
Hi,
long story short, I'm a musician looking for other musicians to jam in the neighbourhood. Turns out there is no app/website of that sort covering this area, which is a surprise given the number of dating apps we have now.
I would like to build a music "dating" site to connect people like me. There are a few features I need :
- Mandatory profile extra fields (if people don't fill them, then the whole thing has no point) :
- Instrument(s) played/owned and level of practice,
- Style(s) played
- Can read/transcribe/arrange/compose music sheets ?
- Has a place to play ?
- URL to Bandcamp, Soundcloud, Youtube, TikTok and any other place where musicians can drop their own tunes,
- Searchable location, ideally ± some radius from origin location,
- Ability to create and join "bands",
- Ability to advertise music events.
I have installed UNA and played around options a bit, but it seems that :
- I can't add extra profile fields, let alone search them,
- the location-based search is well hidden in a page,
- I can't seem to hack the "organization" app into a "band" one.
Do you have any pointers to help me here or did I mistunderstood the purpose or UNA ? Thanks !
OK - DIARY OF A NEW CUSTOMER !!
Today 2nd June. AM
Just signed up for the $50 + 50 plan (Apps & Hosting)
Impressed with the slick stripe payments. Its very good btw!
But apart from a 'Red Dot" in the Licence Field, I'm totally lost as to what to do now, or where to even look / go now !
I've so many questions now. I want to get started, i'm excited for sure, but I'm not been pointed in any specific direction.
First impressions - there are no obvious instructions to follow for a new user! At least nothing apparent to me, at first glance.
Like -
Where - do I go to "see' the back end of my potential new website?
Can - I start to experiment, build an "off-line' version, get my toes wet, see how it look and feels before going live?
What - happens now?
Today 2nd June. PM
Launching the launch window!!!!
OK - Licence Bought - Go to activate / Launch said Licence, and ran into problems with the correct naming of servers, again I feel the fact that I needed to summon Help to even activate the site was not good. Should be a case of; [ imput company name here ] & Click GO!! That said, getting help here, was super quick, through the UNA site. The new message alerts on my phone were also impressive, ditto for the UNA - device APP itself.
Overall
I feel the whole UNA "shop window' is very confusing indeed. I mean - I'm never quite sure whether I'm actually on my OWN SITE, or UNA's !!!! at any one time, it's very confusing, seriously. Suggest colour code, UNA have a different back round colour to own site.
Pricing
Probably be happy paying $100 p/m ok, (if I was actually making progress building a site) I'll talk about this in a while. In my opinion, having your 'business plan" priced at $800 a month (as it stands), when you can not tell me definitively, what exactly i will get for it!!! is plain pointless, to a small business, with a budget in mind!! Mind the Gap!! Big jump from $100 p/m to $800 p/m !!! My site could take anything from a few hours, to months to implement, and there is no apparent tangible way of telling me in advance, what it's going to cost me???, come on! and that's not workable for any business. Consider offering a "white label, ready to go template, out of the box, design and implementation for a set fee, payable per month, all I need to do is change the logo, up-load some pic's turn on/off the modules i want or need, and i'm LIVE!! A "definable feature package' memberships, forum, live chat, blog, photos etc for $xx per month, designed and implemented. That would interest me!
The Software itself
For sure, there is evidence of brilliance everywhere, Seeing how the template it looks and functions on my various devices, it's very impressive, the notifications everything, (on your own site that is! - UNA!) But the Achilles heal of the software is that it is designed by; Expert Tech geeks, for Competent Tech Geeks. If your not a programmer, your lost here. Its not for any "Idea Person" in my view. It's for a Competent Tech Geek, with an idea! In short - as it currently is - the software is not 'user-friendly" enough for the mass market your after. I've stated THIS as the standard you need to aim for ;-

The CMS is as easy to edit as a word doc, and modules and pages are simple ON/OFF options, money back guarantee, and outstanding tel support.
I feel, UNA would need to offer some form of "support" at the start in order to "be at the races" as a product. Assign each new customer of UNA, to an "angel" initially as part of the deal, supported via a "P.C anywhere" type support / with chat. Get um up and running with a revenue generating prod, and you have a good shot at retention. But after 1- DAY on this, I'm so far a little disappointed, I thought I would be able to do more for myself. I'll try again tomorrow!!
