rehitu if you need help with freeflarum you can visit the support page. I don't think freeflarum is yet updated and I don't believe the issue you are saying is related to this.

Updated today and it went pretty good. Thanks to the team.

I got those messages after using "composer update --prefer-dist --no-plugins --no-dev -a --with-all-dependencies":

Deprecation Notice: Using ${var} in strings is deprecated, use {$var} instead in phar:///usr/local/bin/composer/src/Composer/Autoload/AutoloadGenerator.php:879
Deprecation Notice: Using ${var} in strings is deprecated, use {$var} instead in phar:///usr/local/bin/composer/src/Composer/Autoload/AutoloadGenerator.php:884

And:
Package swiftmailer/swiftmailer is abandoned, you should avoid using it. Use symfony/mailer instead.

Should I just ignore those lines or take any action? Thanks.

Edit:
Flarum 1.8.1
PHP 8.2.6
MySQL 10.3.38-MariaDB-0+deb10u1

    Thank you team for your hard work!. I've successfully updated my Forum!

    User24 Theoretically, no. When the tags mentioned don't exist, hashtag will render the content normally, unless say your hashtag happens to be a tag name, haven't looked too closely and not sure of the details, others can chime in.

    Thanks.

    Any idea about this:

    A few people were complaining that their anti malware software is reporting this after the update. I don't really think that github should be an issue. False positive?

      m4v3rick I think this is out of scope for the Release 1.8 discussion. Your discussion seems to contain a link that is not accepted / blocked by the software used on the computer. If it's a valid GitHub link that is being blocked it's most likely a false-positive that should be reported to the malware software detection company.

      m4v3rick no the permission is available in the block "Participation".

        GreXXL Participation

        Thanks, Participate. It was switched to custom. But I never really changed it, it was always "Indefinitely" before (can't even chose "custom"). Weird, but after the update and migrate it must have changed. I got a few complains about deleting own posts right after the update.

        Thanks exactly what I thought

        m4v3rick Any idea about this

        s9e.github.io is an external website that's used by Flarum's TextFormatter (s9e/TextFormatter) for some features like social embeds and maybe some sorts of code highlighting.

        To my knowledge, its main use is making it possible to embed some external social websites that don't allow embedding cross-origin without some complicated configuration. That external server makes that process automatic for users of the TextFormatter library.

        Can Malwarebytes provide you any more detail/reason? I don't see any public database of blocked sites on their own website so I can't look it up. From my quick search it looks like Malwarebytes might block some websites based on IP rather than hostname. Since that website is hosted with GitHub Pages, it likely shares IP addresses with millions of other websites, so it's possible a single bad actor using GitHub Pages caused the entire list of GitHub Pages sites to be blacklisted by IP.

        If there's a legitimate concern with s9e.github.io and not just its IP, it would be great to find the detailed explanation and report it to the maintainer so it can get fixed upstream. TextFormatter is an actively maintained project and Flarum also has interest in keeping it secure. But based on the information at hand it looks more like an invalid Malwarebytes flag.

          Updated today from 1.7 to 1.8.1 and seems that all runs smooth. Nice work 👍

          At this moment latest LTS Ubuntu Server which is version 22.04 LTS, offers PHP 8.1 and i see that future Flarum 2 will require PHP 8.2. Be carefull with that update, it will break a lot of installations on default Ubuntu Servers.

          Hello Flarum Users and Developers,

          I am new to Flarum and want to install it "for evaluation". I want to look into it also "under the hood" - the framework it uses. Because I am a Developer myself, and I really like the speed and performance of this piece of software. Should I better go with the official "stable" 1.0.2 Version or (better with the current development / 1.8.0 for that pupose? Thank you for any anser. hint, tipp.

            ingobaab The current stable version is 1.8.0. 1.0.2 is outdated and should not be used.

            Welcome to Flarum and I hope you enjoy it 👍
