BookStack is so good. I think if you had some official cloud subscription more companies would consider it. But then what do we do for projects and tickets? Add that and we've finally get the real Jira/Confluence killer :) So many companies are tired of the apps above and are waiting for an alternative.

very useful ! loved the backup/restore parts ! thanks

Thanks for the video, Dan! I host mine locally within a Docker container. Although I don't store any personal info, I feel better about having it in my home network vs. a VPS. It would be more convenient in a VPS, however. I just VPN into my home network to access it through Nord's meshnet on my laptop. No port forwarding required. I just need to figure out how to reaolve local DNS names while away on my phone so I can also use the app. Just saw your old power user video. Now, I have to find time to go through all of my pages and beautify it with all of those shortcuts, lol. Cheers mate

Woah, didnt know these things. Thanks for sharing!

Hello, where exactly are those repositories?

I’m having trouble with installing and accessing the GUI of BookStack on both Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04. I’m using a script for the installation, but the progress seems to get stuck, climbing from 5/9 to 9/9 without completing. I’ve tried reinstalling more than 5 times on a fresh VM for each version, but the issue persists. Could anyone provide support or suggestions on how to overcome this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you for your incredible dedication and hard work. Your project has made organizing information so much easier for us, and your tool is invaluable for managing knowledge effectively. We truly appreciate the effort you’ve put into it and the positive impact it has had on our workflow.

Hello! Thanks for taking the time to put this together. Has anything changed with Debian in the last year or so that changes anything in the video? (Probably not--it is Debian--but I'm a bit paranoid. :) )

Unfortunately, this does not help. I have Ubuntu 20.04. running, with Apache and MySQL already running, PHP is also there. I would like to ADD BookStack to the existing website/setup without destroying anything. How would I do that? I would love a step-by-step install instruction video for non-fresh machines.

I have followed the video until minute 34:46 and at that moment I get the error: "Forbidden. You don't have permissions to access this resource." In C:/xampp/apache/logs this appears in the error.log file: [Tue Jul 23 14:03:20.252089 2024] [authz_core:error] [pid 9668:tid 1892] [client ::1:50242] AH01630: client denied by server configuration: C:/var [Tue Jul 23 14:03:20.318163 2024] [authz_core:error] [pid 9668:tid 1892] [client ::1:50242] AH01630: client denied by server configuration: C:/var, referer: localhost:8080/ Do you know how to solve this problem? Great video. Thanks for the explanation!!

This is my first time to follow your tutorial and successfully install BookStack. It works fine with localhost:8080. However, I was wondering if there is a tutorial which will help me to re-configure, the working BookStack on windows 10 with XAMPP and Apache, to work now with an external SSL certificate. I want to reconfigure it to work with external SSL certificate. Thank you so much for your help with this.

Hello, thank you for this project. Is there some way I can report small inaccuracies in the translation?

Thanks for all the hard work and looking forward to the new editor :) Worked with ProseMirror and Editor.js in the past, but will do a deep dive into Lexical now ;) Cheers

I'm basically obsessed with your development. It's such a great project...keep it up... We support you!!!!

Congrats! 🎂

Thank you for building such a great software. Are there any plans on integrating some kind of AI? Would be so useful if I could ask an AI something at it takes the knowledge from Bookstack.

Happy birthday! ♥️ Excited to hear things are on the up and up for you and the project. Moving away from TinyMCE's tendency to flip around licensing on a whim is very commendable. 👍

🌷🌷🌺🌺🌸🌸💕💕❤❤

I do hope my old job is one of those donations, I set them up and got everything working and left at the beginning of this year.. Still haven't found a way to bring it in to my new job but I do still enjoy these updates. Cheers for everything you do!

Software that's become indispensable. I use it every day. Many thanks to the team responsible for developing this product.

This is awesome

Please Please add more options to the wysiwug editor, like font sizes etc :)

Hi, I have been getting error: 'failed to register layer: failed to Lchown "/dev/console" for UID 0, GID 0: lchown /dev/console: no such file or directory'

Hi Dan! I have Bookstack installed in home assistant and cannot see this folder structure through its file manager. I need to edit the pdf export format

Good information, i am not an expert using docker, but whit this instruccions, i was able run BookStack. Thanks.

Hello Dan, I just discovered your tools, seems amazing. Thank you for all your work :)

Really great Video. Got it finally working with this, thank You for that =) Now the one thing left is to find a Solution/Tutorial on how to get HTTPS without a Domain working on an intern Network.

great tutorial but there is no recommendations for troubleshooting. I got all the way to the php artisan migrate command and was given a sqlstate [hy000] [1045} access denied error that I can't find a solution. I've gone back through this vid . . . FAR to many times but see no missteps. Anyone?

Thanks, the restore got me out of worryland. I had bookstack installed in a proxmox lxc via turnkey, and wanted to move to debian 12, but was having a hard time. I moved my instance from docker to the my proxmox in lxc as it was faster and thought I had a handle on restoring the database,as I've done it a few times but I got in a jam. Doing the restore as you described worked perfectly. Can I suggest, if possible, make an import/export option in the gui, to import/export, shelves, books, chapters etc.. to try and make moving much simpler??

Awesome video, I was able to get it all setup. The only difference I had in my environment was I was using the LinuxServer Docker containers. I had to use the command docker ps to find my container id, then docker cp [CONTAINERID]:/config/www/.env /.env to copy it to my host, nano /.env to edit it, Once I was done docker cp /.env [CONTAINERID]:/config/www/.env to copy it back into the docker container. After that I was all set! Thanks!

Fantastic app - thanks for making sure the backend remains in support / keeping the plumbing healthy. Not sure if useful, but pandoc may be worth looking at for document conversion, if it’s not already on your list.

Thank you for this update! 😊

Best of the best. Many thanks !

💝

Dan, if no one has told you this lately, you’re THE man! Keep up the good work.

Unfortunatley bookstack is so barebone and from seeing the changes over the last years, hasn't changed much... It is just extremely lacking.. I'm totally not interested to know about every single version this or that or framework this or that.. It is it usability that matters... But it is free I get that.. So I guess it is not for me...

Thanks again for rhis awesome piece of software, I'm very happy that I found it. Watched every video since I've started using it.

Yessa!!

Hi Dan, thank you for making Bookstack. We are a small team and really appreciate it. I installed it using Home Assistant (BookStack v24.02.3) maybe that's why i don't have some of the features listed here? For example checkboxes only insert a numbered list and keyboard shortcuts aren't in the interface. We are using it locally (local IP) and externally (domain url). When accessing externally, the images that were uploaded locally on a page cannot be seen, as it references the local IP, but if I replace the ip to the domain I can see it. I saw the github issues where you say relative links would work but add more unnecessary processing to the editor, which I agree. But in this case, what should I do? Is there a way to add in this feature? I would like to access the image locally if I'm onsite and via url if I'm out. Again, thank you and sorry for my english

Im using it with Zitadel and i must say it was verry easy to setup Love both Zitadel for its Ease of use and Bookstack 10/10 Already planning on doing it again :)

I think bookstack is great.... One thing I'm severly missing is the ability to link external files/upload them into your documents.. These can be configuration files, licensefiles, etc... Name it... Like e.g. obsidian where you can easily link external files and they are included in the 'wiki' structure.

Hello, I’m Alan, part of a company, and I’ve created a manual in BookStack. I have a question-I’ve done some research, but I haven’t found anything well-explained. I wanted to know if there’s a way to track who accessed the manual, who opened it, something that I could have control over. Thank you in advance!

ensure that in the .env file APP_URL mybookstack/ becomes mybookstack/ . He does it very quickly and you might not notice it, but this is were i got stuck on. Also ensure that APP_URL and the ServerName are the same. For example APP_URL=mybookstack/ in the .env file and ServerName mybookstack in the bookstack.conf

Anyone stuck in 17:10, just install 7zip and run the command again it will work

Excelente video muchas gracias!

Awesome guide, thanks. Quick question before I start install process, this video for Ubuntu which is year old and scripted install is straight forward but then I also watched most recent video on Debian 12 install and the steps shown are not same as Ubuntu you went through quite a few changes just to get the software installed and get the site working, is that due to manual install process vs scripted? or is only meant for Debian?

I continue to be blown away by the features and supporting documentation and videos. I was thinking to myself when I saw the OIDC option if it’d work with azure, then I get a recommendation from UA-cam that you’d got a video on it. And again not only helped me understand the bookstack side, but more on app registration and what data is passed. Thank you!

I’ve just setup BookStack on my server and I have no idea how I’ve not come across it sooner! It looks like a wonderful tool. I’m hoping to use it to document my home LAN and apps, but I can see it being used for so much more. Thanks for the integration ideas in this video, I’ve learned now I can use my HA setup to receive webhooks. Very cool!

MariaDB now uses maridadb-dump instead of mysqldump
