[deleted] have you tried without the ListeSpeed Cache extension? Based on the list it's the first thing I would check.

If we can't find any extension conflict we would have to find a way to reproduce the error on a new installation so I can troubleshoot it locally.

I will try and test (without) it. Thanks for yout time and effort!

Security vulnerability with older Flarum versions

If you are running Flarum version 1.6.2 or lower, users can work around the visibility restriction by subscribing to a discussion. They would then be able to receive an email for each new post even if they normally couldn't see it.

I have been aware of this security issue for 2 weeks but couldn't announce it or fix it in the extension as it would have made the zero day exploit in Flarum public. I discovered the issue through internal review and am not aware of it being exploited in the wild.

Now that the issue is fixed in Flarum, no change is required in this extension. Just make sure Flarum is up to date https://discuss.flarum.org/d/32248-v163-security-patch

You can check you are up to date by running

composer show flarum/core
composer show flarum/subscriptions

And verify both show versions : * v1.6.3

arrstein4u

It's a good extension. Thank you.

When the extension is enabled, the login button that appears under the 'Log in to see the replies' message does not work. Where can I check to solve this problem? My flarum version is 1.7.2.
'Hide comment count on discussion list', 'Hide last post user and date on discussion list', 'Hide first post as well' All of these settings have been turned off.
When the 'Hide first post as well' function is turned on, the login button works, but I only want to hide replies, not first posts, from guest users.

clarkwinkelmann

arrstein4u please post the output of your php flarum info and describe what you mean by "does not work". Does an error message appear, do you see some broken UI appear or is there nothing visibly happening on click? In general but especially if nothing is happening at all, check the javascript console under the browser development tools for any javascript error message that might appear when you click the button.

Thank you for your reply. "Does not work" meant that the Login and Signup links are displayed normally, but clicking on them does not do anything. There is no error message on the screen.
As you told me, I will use browser development tools. Thank you for your time.

Hi all,

I just want to chime in here and make some noise for Clark and some of his extensions.

I am still working on prototype forum on a staging website, but it will be added soon to a membership based site.

Clark's WP Integration is key for my situation, as I want only WP subscribers to have access to the Flarum site, in a sub domain.

Today, I was looking for another enhancement to show ONLY the first post but not the whole discussion.

This "show some content but hide the rest" is important to clarify to guests what activity is happening on the forum, but encourage users to become members.

The See Past First Post extension is terrific for this function.

I see that it has been about a year since there was a discussion here, but wanted to report my finding of the membership supportive function that this See Past First Post (which could have also been called "Show Only First Post" ) really provides.

Look forward to launching my prototype soon!!

clarkwinkelmann

NetConfig once I add the membership synchronisation to Flarum groups in the upcoming WP Integration update this should play nicely together. It should also be relatively easy to customize the text to mention the subscription on the external site instead of the default insufficient permission message. There's currently no way to add a link to an arbitrary page in the see past first post message, but it's relatively easy to do using the Flarum extension API, or I could add a new setting for choosing a link if desired.

meihuak

I found most great extensions are from you, thanks for your great job.
can it be used in 1.8.5?
can I set how many posts can be seen for the guest?

clarkwinkelmann

meihuak unless explicitly stated, all Flarum extensions should be compatible with the latest release. If there's an issue you'll see the incompatible badge.

I don't think I made a setting for the number of posts. It's either one (the first post) or zero.

meihuak

clarkwinkelmann if I want to let the guest to see 1-10 post, can you develop this function? how much should I pay you?

NetConfig

Hi Clark, can you please check if the "Hide comment count on discussion list" function works correctly?

When I activate it, there are no posts that show up on the front end for guest visitors on my test site.

The other two settings for hiding user info and dates for replies in the list, and hiding post details altogether work as expected.

So not sure if there is some other extension interfering, but all works fine in general with the All Discussions list when the Hide Comment etc function is disabled.

The second I turn it on, the Discussion List is gone.

FYI

clarkwinkelmann

NetConfig can you check the javascript console of your browser to see if there's any error logged there, meaning the page crashed rather than returning zero results?

Also please include your php flarum info output so I can see which other extensions are used and which versions.

NetConfig

there seems to be an error, as follows:
