fisher762

after i upload my site online how i can install Extensions without ssh or composer

luceos

fisher762 use the extension manager, see https://docs.flarum.org/extensions#extension-manager

It is bundled with the zip files from the installation page of our docs: https://docs.flarum.org/install#installing-by-unpacking-an-archive

luceos
i go to site.com/admin#/extension/flarum-extension-manager

then in this section :
"Install a new extension

Fill in the extension package name to proceed. You can specify a semantic version using the format vendor/package-name:version. Visit extiverse.com to browse extensions.
"
i try to install this for test
https://extiverse.com/extension/fof/analytics
just inserted "fof/analytics:*" in vendor/package-name input and pressed proceed ..
I got an error message and forum stopped working

fisher762

Warning: require_once( /vendor/composer/autoload_real.php): Failed to open stream

I have to do just fof/analytics for it to work.

every time i need to restore the forum backup again after failed to install extension with extension manager

luceos

fisher762 and there are no logs at all? If you do have ssh available are you able to install any extensions that way?

fisher762

luceos no .. i dont have ssh . i'm using shared hosting .. is there any manual way to install extenstion in the online fourm ?

luceos

fisher762 you can run a copy of your install locally and then transfer it over. This is also documented in the docs.
