I will try to install flarum on my shared host with this tutorial, since the package I use there doesn't have SSH. But just to be sure, the php version is 5.5.33. Will that be enough for flarum to work?

Edit: Nevermind, it worked just fine. Thank you for this tutorial ? .

I am getting file permission error .

The directory is not writable.
Please chmod this directory and its contents to 0775.

But I have already​ changed the permission, still showing same error

    AshutoshKumarPathak Please look at this thread for help with that problem.

    In the future, please try searching the forum first ... we have several discussions related to permission problems encountered during installation. If a search doesn't turn up the information you need, it's better to create a new thread about the issue. Support requests added to unrelated discussions are more likely to be overlooked!

        Thats all I need to know... thx a lot ?

        Thanks :-) Your video tutorial help me a lot. Next video tutorial can be how to install extension on Shared Hosting ?? :-)

        Works the same way, actually. Just open composer in the flarum folder on your computer, and then use the command for the extension you want (like composer require sijad/flarum-ext-spoiler-alert). Would do that before the installation on shared hosting, though. Otherwise you need to download, and the upload all files of flarum itself again.

        jordanjay29 Flarum is currently having some issues with PHP 7.0, which should hopefully be solved by Beta 5, but for the moment it's not great advice to tell people to get XAMPP if the default is PHP 7.0.

        I use Uwamp, which lets me change the php version within seconds. And other cool stuff, for quick changes.

        @Mtechnik Since you already installed it, could you, please, give us the .sql and the files archived after the instalation? I honestly don't know why they don't do that... or why don't have a PHP script (non-composer) for auto-update...

            Just a heads up for others: Composer removed the "Use Composer Here" feature, you now need to know the lines to load Composer.

              hi, I have installed on Localhost and modification, How to configuration after upload on hosted?

                ongoltse You don't really "upload", you just have to run those composer commands on your server.

                    HavocK hi thanks. but I've modification flarum on localhost. how to use composer ?

                        ongoltse What kind of modifications ?

                        If you edited core files (you should not do that), you can just overwrite them after a complete installation on your server.

                        If you want to transfer data from your database, just make a tranfer. Dump, your table's data then insert them in your brand new database.

                          Sapioit Sapioit Honestly you wouldnt need my SQL at all. As you can see here, theres been many success, if you have it installed locally or shared hosting using my tutorial, then you can easily get your own SQL to view. OR am I missing what your asking for here?

                                ashkir Left Shift+Mouse Right Click, select "use command" works fine. They did edit out the "Use Composer HEre" which pissed me off, it took me a while to figured they removed that feature. But thanks for the heads up ?

                                  ongoltse @HavocK IF your shared host does not carry SSH, you can just follow my tutorial with your extensions and you will be just fine. This also works the same way for the latest beta build which at this time of this reply, we are on beta-5

                                    Mtechnik Honestly, I tried installing it, and I, somehow, failed...
                                    Still can't get the files and the sql needed to run it without composer, because I can't make it work with composer...

                                    But again, it's not like the whole world of php hosting is going to implement free composer overnight... so I guess I'll wait for when they will release a version that works without composer...
                                    Maybe I'll manage after a few more tutorials... seems like there's some new stuff posted around here, since the last time I looked around...
