  • [SUSPENDED] Help us build the official Flarum hosting service

User39

We're not hosting websites, we're hosting forums. If you were hosting a forum with us, they are wiped as mentioned above. Shoot us an email and we'll get you your database + avatars.

    I'm curious. When you say personal reasons, do you actually mean personal reasons or relationships with Flarum in general?

      Will Flarum hosted service be run earlier than non-hosted version?

      That's not happening. Toby is a 4th year med student and has to put in time as he can for Flarum development. It'll work out in the long run. This project means a lot to many of us. It's not going to die out until people decide to stop finding interest in it, and hopefully we're many years off from that.

      We have been growing these last few months at a rate of 100+ new users per week. What would help out is if the growing community could find way for some more developers to help out with the issues so we can bring Flarum into a stable state sooner.

        webeindustry To add to that, if you know how to fix an issue on Github (check the Good for New Contributors label for some starters), feel free to submit a pull request!

        Toby Completely understandable and we appreciate the time you do put into development. Take your time and keep up the great work Toby. No rush. Rome wasn't built in a day.

        hosting service is dead? :/

        Toby Would you like a hand? I've already got a working service that spins up flarum instances in around 9 seconds ?

          I made two points, you'll have to be more specific than that ?

          I'll address both and add a third to save you needing to respond back.

          1. My script takes less than 9 seconds if you don't count the LetsEncrypt provisioning.

          2. It would be naive to think the writing of a simple script is holding us back.

          3. The problem is not on the hosting end, per say. That should be obvious if you were to read the topic in full.

          We do appreciate that there is still high interest in a hosting solution for Flarum, and let me make it clear that the announcement relates to the end of BETA hosting, but not the end of an official hosting solution for Flarum in the future.

          Hi! Thanks to the OP for doing this. Any chance you could take on a new hosting account?
