Previously thresholded comments were hidden completely. You had to click the "Show X hidden comments" button to unhide all hidden comments in a thread. Now it works like this: * When a comment is below your threshold, the comment text is hidden and replaced by a `[hidden]` link, which you can click to unhide the comment. * When a comment is at half your threshold (for example, your threshold is -8 but the comment is at -4), then the comment is greyed out. This means that comments aren't completely hidden, they're just collapsed, so you can see the commenter and the score without unhiding the comment. It also means you don't have to scroll back up to unhide a comment, and threads aren't disrupted by comments being secretly hidden (which is confusing when people are replying to hidden comments, which forces you to go back up and unhide to find).
Installation
It is recommended that you install Danbooru on a Debian-based system since most of the required packages are available on APT. Danbooru has been successfully installed on Fedora, CentOS, FreeBSD, and OS X. The INSTALL.debian install script is straightforward and should be simple to adapt for other platforms.
For best performance, you will need at least 256MB of RAM for PostgreSQL and Rails. The memory requirement will grow as your database gets bigger.
On production Danbooru uses PostgreSQL 9.4, but any 9.x release should work.
Use your operating system's package management system whenever possible. This will simplify the process of installing init scripts, which will not always happen when compiling from source.
Troubleshooting
These instructions won't work for everyone. If your setup is not working, here are the steps I usually recommend to people:
-
Test the database. Make sure you can connect to it using psql. Make sure the tables exist. If this fails, you need to work on correctly installing PostgreSQL, importing the initial schema, and running the migrations.
-
Test the Rails database connection by using rails console. Run Post.count to make sure Rails can connect to the database. If this fails, you need to make sure your Danbooru configuration files are correct.
-
Test Nginx to make sure it's working correctly. You may need to debug your Nginx configuration file.
-
Check all log files.
Services
Danbooru employs numerous external services to delegate some functionality.
For development purposes, you can just run mocked version of these
services. They're available in scripts/mock_services and can be started
automatically using Foreman and the provided Procfile.
Amazon Web Services
In order to enable the following features, you will need an AWS SQS account:
- Pool versions
- Post versions
- IQDB
- Saved searches
- Related tags
Google APIs
The following features requires a Google API account:
- Bulk revert
- Post versions report
IQDB Service
IQDB integration is delegated to the IQDBS service.
Archive Service
In order to access versioned data for pools and posts you will need to install and configure the Archives service.
Reportbooru Service
The following features are delegated to the Reportbooru service:
- Related tags

Cropped Thumbnails
There's optional support for cropped thumbnails. This relies on installing
libvips-8.6 or higher and setting Danbooru.config.enable_image_cropping
to true.
