Staff Diary: v2.0 Cycle

navindra

Walys Why this? I thought this new one replaced the Byoyu extension. In the end I understand that they do the same thing.

What would be great would be to have a migration story... so threads in Byoyu can be ported over to the Messages extension.

Similarly, I'd love to see something like the Reactions extension move to core. There's no synergy between Reactions, Likes, Dislikes extensions. They are all independent and the migration story is tough, as far as i can tell. What I'd want if I enabled Reactions would be to convert all the Likes to 👍 or something similar.

JFOC

luceos is this published yet?

ernestdefoe

JFOC no it’s not. It’s still being developed. Once it is released they will make an announcement about it.

Apricot

It's very sad that the development process of "Open Source" Flarum does not even have a public repository.

GreXXL

Apricot I think you didn't take time to look - but here you go: flarum/framework

ernestdefoe

Apricot I’m sure there’s a reason for it and maybe it’s to keep people from installing not even an alpha version of the software and coming here complaining that it’s not working right or it’s buggy or they can’t install extensions. Again I’m sure there’s a reason why they don’t.

Apricot

GreXXL Hmm, it seems that the last time I checked, I somehow missed the 2.0 branch. Now I see it.
Maybe it’s because it’s cluttered with a lot of different branches, and 2.0 wasn’t the default at that time, so I just missed it in among a pile of stale branches

qianmoQ

When will 2.x be released? Where can I see the 2.x demo site?

ernestdefoe

qianmoQ ® When it’s ready. They haven’t given a time frame yet and last I checked the demo was broken.

davetodave178

qianmoQ You can check out https://nightly.flarum.site/. But be aware at this stage of development the site may be broken from time to time.

CyberGene

I think they mentioned the optimistic release date will be in 2025. Pessimistic is… when ready 😉

Hey everyone 👋

Some of you might have noticed that discuss misbehaved for those that weren't logged in.

Last night we published an update to test our upcoming 1.8.6 release, which contains mostly QoL changes for developers. We didn't notice the issue right away, but once reports came in we tried to resolve the issue first and foremost. Currently we have reverted back to 1.8.5 instead.

My apologies for any inconvenience.

luceos

We've redeployed the upcoming 1.8.6 version onto discuss. This version will be announced later. Should you notice any issues, please do report that to us 👍️

We just released some Quality of Life updates for 1.8.x - see IanM for full information

Thank you! Just a curiosity: The extension manager was not seeing the core update, only extension.
Run the global update from the extension manager has upgraded Flarum.

What happen?
When I read some extension update has been released I checked today for updates in the extension manager.
The extension manager just showed two extensions to update but not the Flarum core.
I decided to run the global update and Flarum was also upgraded but the upgrade of Flarum has not been showed as available update in the extension manager.

IanM Los usuarios suspendidos pueden eliminar el avatar

There is a crazy problem with this update. If the user has ever been suspended, even if they are no longer suspended, their avatar will never show up. Not even an admin can upload an avatar.

IanM

Do I have to update the extensions one by one ? Or is there a command to update everything ?

IanM

peopleinside releasing and tagging core and extensions is a manual task, so you probably just caught me whilst I was still tagging each extension.

We always tag the core release last of all, after each extension, so I think you were probably just a little to fast in this case 🙂
