Updated my test mastodon instance to 4.5.0-beta-1
Lessons learned:
* Ruby Version update must use the exact command listed in the upgrade docs.
* UPDATE: Read replies, it works! ~~Tangerine Theme isn't 4.5 compatible, so removed it.~~
* UPDATE: Read replies! ~~Had to run this to reset every user to default theme. (SCARY)~~
```
User.find_each do |user|
next if user.settings['theme'] == 'default'
user.settings['theme'] = 'default'
user.save
end
```
@box464 odd, I'm running v4.5.0-beta.1 & Tangerine UI without any problems
The only thing is, Tangerine UI calls itself v2.4.4, but the latest CSS files are marked as v2.4.5, maybe that's the difference?
@box464 perhaps this is doable with just a SQL query. Would be good to use docker so you don't have to worry about dependency upgrading. 🙏
Also, I have quote fixes for a flavour of tangerine UI I can share if you're feeling adventurous and have some CSS skills. 🫡
@quaff I'm good for now! I chose the bare metal version so I could learn more about Mastodon and how it works. I knew nothing about Ruby or Elasticsearch and not much about PSQL so it's definitely been a journey.
I use ProxMox so I just take a snapshot, make huge mistakes, and rollback. :)
@box464 proxmox for virtual host at least sounds like a good step to take 😊 rolling back would suck without it haha
@box464 The issue is likely just the new sass format which requires you to change to "@use 'tangerineui/tangerineui';"
did you have @import or similar for your cscc files?
@shlee Looks like that's covered from what I see in the Tangerine UI repo.
I see nileane has an experimental version of TangerineUI on her own instance that is working on 4.5.0-beta, so I'll just re-install when that is released.
I shoulda just waited, but why not live on the wild side? If I mess it up, it's just me and a few other devs testing stuff.
If y'all want a working version while we wait for official release, I've opened a PR https://github.com/nileane/TangerineUI-for-Mastodon/pull/192
I use this on my instance.
@box464 thank you for the script btw
