Hi there, after installing this extension I tried inserting the following code into my hero text and it simply reloads the page and signs me (admin) out.

<a href="/signup" title="Sign up for Camas Club">sign up</a> `

Any ideas here?

    trever-s Yes no matter what the sign up box will load. Whether you are logged in or not.

        trever-s It’s not the best idea to use the public folder like that. Typically, the files in the public folder are moved to the home directory or some sort of virtual redirect of sorts is set up. The easiest set up depending on the hosting environment would be putting the public files at the public root (pull them out of the public folder and move them). And then all other files go a level below your public files for security reasons. Or, you use something like various .htaccess rules to protect the non-public files.

        All that aside, your code for the sign up link isn’t formatted quite right.

        <a href="/signup" onclick="app.modal.show(new app.routes.flagrow-direct-links-signup.component.component.prototype.createModal) title=" sign="" up="" for="" camas="" club"="">sign up</a>

        The sign up link should just be:

        <a href="public/signup">sign up</a>

        Or, if you reinstall so that you aren’t literally using the public folder:

        <a href="/signup">sign up</a>

            010101

            Thanks for the example — that worked.

            And I'm also a bit concerned regarding your comments on the public folder.

            I had been advised by someone to modify my .htaccess file and the public folder is the best I could do regarding site location.

            Ideally it would just be https://camas.club.

            Do I need to reinstall to get this into my root directory?

                trever-s hey. You remember the discussion we had over discord concerning this ? You don't need to reinstall, but you should complete the exercise I referenced so you no longer need to use /public. Once that is complete, you'll need to uncomment lines 9-14 in .htaccess to ensure its secure.

                    [deleted], hello there. Thanks for jumping in here. You weren't the person I was referring to. However, the link you provided me was difficult to grasp (https://docs.flarum.org/install.html#customizing-paths). The instructions led me to believe it was written for people who want to move their site outside of the public folder to a subdomain. Am I missing something here? I want to move my site into the main directory (root URL) so it's accessible at https://camas.club.

                      @[deleted] My apologies, just re-read that, and it also states "or if your host doesn't give you control over your webroot…you can set up Flarum without the public directory." Digging in here.

                        Hey @010101 I am using this extension with the blog extension as the home page, I was wondering if it is possible that when I use the /composer link I could display the composer on the /all discussions page instead of the blog page (home). Do you know what I would have to modify in the extension files to achieve this?

                          I would like to login to this from my custom page so using something like /signup but I want something to fill that like /signup?username=user&email=test@example.com&key=password and when I hit this link it should signed up the user so is it possible

                            custom_user It's not a very good idea to pass sensitive information such as passwords through the URL (for security), although you may find it useful, I think it would be better to avoid it.

                              Darkle Not immediately. 😁 I just took this extension since it was going to possibly be abandoned, and updated the composer.json and re-released it. For me, as long as it keeps somewhat working I’m happy.

                              Now that you’ve asked, maybe this weekend I can study the code.

                                  010101 Oh I had no idea it wasn't originally yours, sorry 😅

                                  That would be fantastic really, for me a little trick in the code would be enough to achieve this, so you don't need to release a new version with this option which I imagine would be more work 🙂

                                      Darkle I have an idea of how to do this. The extension includes a component appropriately named RedirectToHomeAndOpenModalPage.js. With a couple small changes I believe it will work. Or, it’s a start at least.

                                      I think I will try to make this the default behavior.

                                      But, I’ve hit extra busy times. I happened to finally look at the code from my phone real quick this morning. I don’t have the time or energy to make the changes right now. All I can say is maybe this weekend? But it may not happen for a few weekends.

                                          010101 Thanks for bothering to take a look, I understand you're busy now, no problem I'll wait.

                                          Now that you've said it maybe I'll do some experiment out of curiosity with the RedirectToHomeAndOpenModalPage.js component, I'll let you know if I get something useful 🙂

                                              2.2 Released

                                              • Composer now opens on all discussion page even if you set a different page as your homepage. Requested by @Darkle , and it just makes sense for the composer to open where all the discussions are.
                                              • Tested tag parameter which is now actually "primary_tag." In other words, you may once again auto fill the composer with a title, content, AND tag, but you need to type the tag parameter like this: /composer?primary_tag=tagname

                                                May be this is not a very common problem but We get error when a user who is logged in the website click to domain.com/register . Yes you can ask why a user try to register without log out 😀 ( domain.com/login works although I am logged in)
