15Teds

Hello,

I am extremely new to Flarum and how to us it. I recently started a one using freeflaurm.com but the manage the site at its full has caused me to want to try transferring away. I don't know where to begin, What servers I need, etc.

If there is anyone who can help me start I would greatly appreshate it.

Thanks 😀

Do you have any good places to purchase a server from?

15Teds if you don't know how to manage a VPS, find a shared hosting provider that offers ssh/composer support.

Ramnode, Vultr, Digital Ocean etc for VPS.

luceos I have a shared hosting plan that has a "ssh Access panel" is would that be sufficent.

15Teds Yes, if you can use Composer with it.

Check with your host about it. You will need to run a few commands every now and then after installing Composer. Technically, that is not difficult but you need to see whether your host permits.

Hey there, I am also in search of a host for flarum. I am no Linux dev so Freeflarum looks like a good option,
What made you leave it?
