Oshvam yes

IanM

Oshvam I'm looking into this now, I hope to have a fix shortly 🙂

IanM

I just released v1.8.3 of flarum/suspend to address an issue with avatar removal after the conclusion of a time based suspension.

Thanks for the report on this Oshvam

Oshvam

IanM I regret to report that after updating the problem persists. I think it is related to the same problem that triggers the basic panel not being displayed. I've tried the usual: clearing flarum cache, server and browser cache, disabling extensions...etc. But the avatar is simply not stored, I have looked at the path where avatars are stored and it is correct, /assets/avatars/ (permissions are also correct); however when inspecting the avatar image to be uploaded, although it is true that it assigns an ID (name.png) and correct paths, it gives a 404 error.

About this update, also comment that some basic extensions like FoF Merge stopped working, they will remain active, but the controls will not be shown in the frontend.

When will Flarum version 2 be released?

serdo When will Flarum version 2 be released?

When it’s ready. I would imagine we’ll see BETA versions sometime in first quarter of 2025 with a stable version sometime in the third to fourth quarter.

ernestdefoe very long time 🙂

Well I would rather them take their time and provide a version as bug free as possible instead of rushing it out and be almost unusable because it’s so buggy. At least when they make publicly available BETA versions extension developers can start working on updating their extensions so when a stable version of 2.x comes out people will be able to update to it faster.

IanM

Oshvam I fear that there may be more going on here than this. The BasicsPage was fixed in 1.8.7, and I'm not aware of any other reports of this nature.

Please try disabling all extensions one at a time, checking the BasicsPage and other issues you have after each one is disabled. If the problem persists, then re-enable that extension and move on to disabling the next, until you find which one is causing this.

Only then can we help to resolve this issue

Oshvam

IanM Thanks!

I have not managed to isolate the problem at all, so I finally reverted to version 1.8.5 and everything works without problems.

I did manage to find when the error occurs, and it is when the night mode extension is active with version 1.8.6 or 1.8.7 of Flarum in an installation with PHP 8.3. In fact, if I disable it with these conditions, the whole forum deletes the content and is not displayed.

Hello 👋,

Here's an update on some of the changes/additions that were pushed into the 2.0 development branch since last time. This time around it is mostly user-facing features 🌟.

Thanks to @Darkle for coming up with the designs for these features!

🔎 Post search

We have added the ability to search through individual posts (flarum/framework4019).

post search modal

post search page

🔎 Admin search

We have added the ability to search through the admin settings and permissions (flarum/framework4022)

admin search modal

📩 Direct messages

This has been requested multiple times, so we have built a new simple messaging extension that will be included in 2.0 (flarum/framework4028)

messages page

🧩 Extension Discovery UI

This has also been requested many times before. We have added a section in the extension manager that allows you to browse extensions from the official extension directory and directly install from there (flarum/framework4066)

SychO This has been requested multiple times, so we have built a new simple messaging extension

Noooooo... FoF Byōbu did the thing just in right way. What to do for now??? What kind of actions required after upgrade? Messages converting, permission, etc... There is a problem now.

This has been requested multiple times, yep, but seems you are late 🙂 And FoF Byōbu is not the only solution. Seems more new problems will acquire. Are there any benefits other than embedding?

PS. I am just checked a github and it is just too basic comparing to FoF Byōbu. I can publish the conversation in one click, extend it with the new contacts, exclude some contacts.. absolute flexible. New users cant PM cause of permisson set and my Flarum installation didnt know about spam throw PM. PM can be initialised only by some of groups memebrs.

With great respect for the great work, but the best way is just to integrate the best solution (also doned by FoF). Isn't it?

Wellwisher

SychO seriously and utterly beautiful design so glad I departed from SMF

SychO Did you consider the use Scrubber like scrollbar design in the DM UI?

exciting developments 😵 thanks guys

Gorm it will be an extension, so it will be completely up to the forum admin to decide if they want this feature or not.

FriendsOfFlarum Byobu is not going away, it will be updated for Flarum 2.x and you can/should continue to use it if the features better fit your community.

I don't know what the plans for migrating are, but certainly someone will write a tool to migrate between the 2 extensions at some point, even if the migrator doesn't end up being part of the core extension. Based on the ephemeral nature of private messages, some forums might not even need the migration tool if they prefer to start fresh with the new extension.

SychO

Gorm Like clark mentioned, it's a separate extension and no one is forced to use it, it won't be enabled by default either. So you can still use whatever other extensions you wish to use 👍️

Gorm

clarkwinkelmann sure, will see, but some of the best practice/experience must be kept in mind in this days for the future changes.
