Algo I would like to allow guests to post. However, I have seen that I need an extension for it, which extension has not yet been developed for free. I wanted to ask if there is currently any other way to allow guests to post or do I need to wait for the extension to be developed?
Algo GreXXL Ok, so we have to wait for the extension to be released right? Any date when this can happen?
Darkle Algo You have the premium extension that I guess you know (https://extiverse.com/extension/convo-extensions/flarum-ext-guest-posting) and also this extension which is open source but not published Packagist (https://github.com/block-cat/guest-posting), so you would have to install it manually, it has not been updated for a while, it should work with 1.0 but with more recent versions it could give some issues.
Algo Darkle Yep, i saw the premium extension but i can´t allow pay 50$ right now, so i was searching to an open source solution. I will try the free option, thanks EDIT: I can´t install the free option with composer 🙁
Darkle Algo First you have to clone the repository into your Flarum packages folder and then use the command composer require block-cat/guest-posting "*@dev"
Algo Darkle Sorry, i not understand. I tried: composer require block-cat/guest-posting, but not found, have this error: `In PackageDiscoveryTrait.php line 364: Could not find a matching version of package block-cat/guest-posting. Check the package spelling, your version cons traint and that the package is available in a stability which matches your minimum-stability (stable).` I tried you command: composer require block-cat/guest-posting "*@dev", but i have this error `Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages. Problem 1 Root composer.json requires block-cat/guest-posting, it could not be found in any version, there may be a typo in the package name.`
clarkwinkelmann Algo Darkle means you will have to install it just like if you were a developer working on the package because it's not published to Packagist https://docs.flarum.org/extend/start#extension-packaging If it's not published to Packagist, it's probably not ready for production use though.
Darkle That's right, it's not easy to install it if you're not used to it, BlockCat hasn't published this or any of its extensions on Packagist intentionally, I don't know what the reason is.
