Is it ok to move my Flarum to PHP 8.2 version? Currently i'm using PHP 8.0.27 and Flarum 1.6.3 and everything is fine.
I can see Flarum working with PHP8.2 now, But is it ok to move my flarum to latest PHP version? because i think maybe some of my extension will not work with php 8.2.

Can somebody help me about it?

Should i keep using PHP 8.0.27?

    masihdindar 8+ are all fine. With Flarum 2.0 you will probably be forced to upgrade to PHP 8.1 or perhaps 8.2 though, 2.x is still ways off.

      Vadim_RUNN operation is not so fast

      That doesn't seem to be caused by Flarum, but without more information that is extremely hard to identify. Create a new discussion, provide the required information and we can help you get to the bottom of this.

        Oshvam it means you are using redis for sessions, but not for the queue.

        Hi
        I just upgraded my Flarum and it says my version is 1.7.1. I hope it's not mistake because here you said v1.7.0

        Anyway, There is one important issue that even you can see in Flarum official forum.
        The time doesn't work correctly!

        Watch these:

        and this:

        Even in my forum, I just posted something 2 hours ago and it keep saying "a few seconds ago".
        Tried clearing cache, changing PHP version but doesn't work.
        Everything was fine in 1.6.x version.

        What's going on?

          I have been forced to run php8.2 for a while. After flarum was upgraded to 1.7, I did feel that the response slowed down, but no error was reported. It just felt a bit stuck in this way.

          masihdindar what's your computer timezone? The hour:minute shown in the browser is according to the browser's current time, so there shouldn't be any error there. But maybe your browser is/isn't in daylight saving mode while your operating system is? I'm not sure how browser and operating system can differ though.

          Often when we see 2-hour errors it has something to do with UTC and Central European time (UTC+2). Make sure the webserver and database servers are running the same timezone, ideally run everything as UTC if you can.

          The time from the server is always converted from the server timezone to UTC before being sent to the browser, where native javascript functions are used to display the time in the client's browser timezone.

          EDIT: I was waiting to post to verify, the time looks good on discuss.flarum.org for me, it shows 7:05 PM as my post creation, which matches with the 19:05 time on my computer clock (CET)

            Thanks for replying. Yes i fount out that daylight option in my windows settings was the problem.
            Anyway i don't know why and how this problem happened but disabling auto daylight option seems fixed this issue!

            I will test more about this.

              v1.7.2 of flarum/core has been released to address an issue with SelectDropdown component as used by extensions such as fof/discussion-language and fof/user-directory (plus others)

              Updated to php8.2 today. Flarum runs without any issues. Thanks!

              I haven't been following latest realeases, is it possible now to install without ssh access?

                Upgrade to v1.7.2. Working perfect!

                arteteco officially, no. You can try installing the flarum/package-manager, but that would require using ssh as well, might as well upgrade using ssh right away.

                9 days later

                today i realized something:
                I use sitemap extension for my forum and before 1.7 upgrade first images inside a discussion would act as an meta tag image so when i share it on socials link preview would include that image. but after the upgrade this doesnt work, old discussions still use the first image as meta image, but new ones only show the image from sitemap extenssion settings.

                could this be because of the update? any suggestions?

                  dragsugur which extensions are you referring to? FoF Sitemap shouldn't have any impact on this, it might impact how results are displayed in search engines but not social previews, and it doesn't have any setting for any sort of default image. Maybe you are referring to the v17development SEO extension? In that case you could try disabling the extension or tweak its settings to see if anything changes and maybe report an issue in that extension discussion.

                  Without any extension, social previews will usually pick the first image on the page, which likely is the forum logo.
