Flarum 0.1.0-beta.13 Released

wmchen

Dear all,

I have used the Flarum version 0.1.0-beta.7 for a long time.
Is it possible to migrate to the current version from Flarum version 0.1.0-beta.7 without losing any data?

Thanks!

luceos

wmchen with patience and a backup you should get a long way.

SnakePromise

wmchen Yes, I did it even from beta 6: https://discuss.flarum.org/d/21272-upgrading-from-beta-6-to-9/19

Hi luceos and @SnakePromise,

Thanks for sharing your experiences before. Unfortunately, it's extremely hard to migrate to the latest version. I've tried many ways but all failed. I will choose to keep the current version and try to migrate all posts to latest version.

Still thanks for your help.

wmchen you need to follow the upgrade instructions for each version that was released after the version you have. It's certainly possible, just upgrade one version at a time and there shouldn't be problems

What worked for me was instructions from @jordanjay29 https://discuss.flarum.org/d/21272-upgrading-from-beta-6-to-9/2:

Disabled all non-core extensions
Exported old database
Made fresh install of the latest beta
Created new empty database
Went through setup, entered new database data
Dropped all tables in the new database
Imported old database into the new one
Ran php flarum migrate
Ran php flarum cache:clear
Moved avatars and uploads form the old assets folder to the new one

askvortsov You can still use amazon SES through IMAP if you set it up right.

How can I post an image?

RiversideRocks

You should upload the image to a third party service like imgur, then click the image icon in the editor to link it.

Flying_Bird

RiversideRocks That's really complicated. Why not support local images?

If you install the extensionn named Flagrow Upload, you can do that. It is not available on this website at the moment.

meetdilip fof/upload superseded that one:

Will Flarum work with PHP 8?

kalucky0 Once PHP 8.0 is fully released and no longer in RC/Beta status it will probably be something that we test and ensure everything works as expected. It probably won't be immediately after PHP 8.0 is released but we will support it. I believe our general policy going forward is to always support current versions of PHP that are actively maintained and receive security updates. Once the PHP version reaches End of Life we will probably decide on dropping support.

I can't install it on Centos 8 with composer. The message is :

LudovikDopierala it seems like it's an issue between the latest version of Composer and kylekatarnls/update-helper which is a dependency of one of our dependencies.

This GitHub issue on their project shows a command to downgrade the Composer version manually. I haven't tested it so I don't know if this fixes the issue for Flarum kylekatarnls/update-helper9

The problem must have started to occur in the last few hours. There will probably be development happening in their GitHub issue. Unfortunately Flarum can't do much about this until they get it fixed.
