Flarum SEO

JasperVriends

user1993 That's on the wish list 🙂

For now you can upload a favicon to flarum, then that image get automatically selected. You can do that by going to the Admin panel and go to the tab Appearance and upload an favicon (.png image).

But, I'll make sure for the next update that the extension won't add the image Open Graph if there is no favicon specified.

JasperVriends That worked! Thank you for making this amazing extension!

MikeJones

Has anyone seen big changes in the Google Search Console after using this extension?

bin

MikeJones I have it installed but not enabled. Still waiting for another update.

Victor12

MikeJones Surprisingly, yes. We already ranked higher on Google.

JasperVriends

Please note: I will update the plugin the following week, right now I have some school work that is very important the following two weeks... So it takes some time from me before I can focus on the extension again...

Victor12 Awesome, great to hear that! I hope for others it will be a great solution!

MikeJones Oh wow, did not expect that. Hadn't test that out yet... It's the Flarum Likes extension that you've maybe disabled, not the QA extension actually, sorry that happened! I will edit the plugin that the QA view automatically fallbacks to default discussion SEO as when that plugin is disabled!

bin Follow the instructions below 🙂

When this makes your forum slow, you can turn back to the default SEO and check if that helps. The only way (right now) is to go to your database, then the table settings, and add the key disable_fancy_discussion_seo with the value 1.

MikeJones

Assuming this is because I do not have the QA extension installed

Guess its time for me to download mySql workbench and try to turn this feature off lol

bin

MikeJones Can you tell me how to turn that QnA feature off as well? Not familiar with MariaDB and such.

MikeJones

JasperVriends Oh wow, did not expect that. Hadn't test that out yet... It's the Flarum Likes extension that you've maybe disabled, not the QA extension actually, sorry that happened! I will edit the plugin that the QA view automatically fallbacks to default discussion SEO as when that plugin is disabled!

I just re-enabled the likes extension and am telling google to recrawl. We shall see if these warnings go away!

MikeJones

MikeJones looks like enabling the likes extension officially fixed my error in the google search console

MikeJones

Idea: Would be cool to allow Admins to edit the Description Tag for individual discussions if they would like too!

JasperVriends

I'm back from the schoolstuff, I got my free time back 😁 I will work on the plugin tomorrow and update it!

MikeJones This is a great idea! Something for in the future 😀

MikeJones Thanks for the log (and the GitHub issue report), I'll point that out tomorrow!

010101 I actually do not know yet. I will test my plugin in combination with that plugin on my dev server tomorrow. I will fix the problems if I can find what's going wrong!

PascalBoschma

010101 Could you create an issue?

010101

PascalBoschma No, never mind. Upon further investigation that error was actually caused by the Friends of Flarum necrobumping extension.

MikeJones

So out of the blue today it looks like this extension brought down my entire flarum. Here is what happened.

The website has been working great lately. BUt I visited it one last time right before going to bed tonight and all that was displayed when I visited it was this:

Error booting Flarum: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No such file or directory (SQL: select value, key from settings)

After further investigating and looking at my FLarum Logs I pulled this out:

After speaking with @jordanjay29 in the discord room he suggested disabling the SEO plugin based on the above error.

I could not access my site at www.seekadventure.net because it gave the first error just on a white page. But www.sekadventure.net/admin worked and I was able to un-check the SEO plugin and when I refreshed my main page everything started working again.

MikeJones Interesting. I think this SEO extension works, but it doesn't play nice with other extensions. For example, I installed this SEO extension, and right after that I also installed the "necrobumping" extension from the Friends of Flarum team. Then my site stopped working. I checked the error log and the error log was blaming this SEO extension. But, once I disabled the Friends of Flarum necrobumping extension, my site starting working again and the SEO extension is working great.

I don't know what the issue is. My only advice to @JasperVriends is to check the code to see if it is coded in such a way to where it may not play nice with other extensions? Is there some naming convention, or line of code somewhere that other extensions also might use which causes conflicts? I have no idea.

010101 I have not experienced these issues, added the same plugin and had no issues.

jordanjay29

010101 Flarum beta 8.x loads extension assets in enabled order, so try different combinations of that.

JasperVriends

Update 0.3-beta

I've released an update!

Fixed problem PHP notice reported by @iivanov
Fixed markdown code in page descriptions
Fixed flooding logs after a tag was not found
Corrected discussion URL for the QADiscussion class
Thanks to @ahrasis for his pull request on GitHub, Bahasa Malaysia language is added!
Also, German, French and Frisian (a Dutch dialect) have been added to the plugin

Run the following command on your server to update the plugin:

composer update v17development/flarum-seo

Let me know if you have any trouble with anything 🙂

010101 I've tried different combinations of plugin ordering as jordanjay29 suggested, but could not reproduce any problems. Are you able to report an issue with the errorlog on GitHub?

MikeJones

JasperVriends no problem, let me know if you need anything else!

iivanov

Hello @JasperVriends,

I was wondering if you have an ETA for 0.3-beta release which has the view page refresh bug-fix.

Thanks
