Hello,
I’ve recently launched a new donations platform for the community where I live (https://giving.gg/) and a website for the organisation itself (https://charity.org.gg/). They’re built in Laravel and have a Filament backend on a subdomain. The database is shared between the two sites and the Filament admin.
I’ve been asked to investigate adding a forum so when I saw Flarum is powered by Laravel I was immediately interested!
Before delving any deeper is there anything I should be aware of?
I’d like to host the forum on a subdomain of the charity.org.gg website and share logins with the Filament admin - so I think that would also mean sharing the database? I’m a little uncomfortable doing this as would prefer to keep the two separate if possible. Is there any solution to this? Just share the users and have a separate database for Flarum? I’m not sure what is possible.
If it makes most sense to totally separate the databases then I’ll let the client know this.
It looks like Flarum 2 will be releasing quite soon too, is there an ETA so I know if it’s worth waiting for?
Thank you!
