FreeFlarum beta.14 update status

Hello folks! It's been some time since we've updated our beta.14 update to-do issue. Flarum beta.14/beta.14.1 was around for quite some time now, and it would be a pity if we wouldn't update. Actually, we are going to update very soon, we just needed to give extension developers some time to update their amazing extensions

First of all, I want to thank the awesome Flarum team & all the developers that worked really hard during this update & extensions update. I am really happy to see such a strong and amazing community. Us updating wouldn't be possible without your help with fixing some bugs I've found during the testing, so thank you very much for that!

Information you should know:

And now for the update itself. Yesterday, I spend quite some time (R. I. P. Saturday) testing the beta.14 update.

I've setup a testing forum independent to other FreeFlarum forums, but with setup equal to other forums (there were some small downtimes at our service sometimes, so I want to apologize for that). This was a very important step, because it allowed us to debug and squash some bugs before we update all forums for real. I've ran through every single extension we've got at FreeFlarum (plus, a few new ones you've been requesting for quite some time now ;D) and took a notes of what bugs occurred during the testing, what needs to be reported, changed or (sadly) removed.

Speaking of removals, some extensions sadly won't make it to this update (yet):

• amaurycarrade/flarum-ext-syndication
• antoinefr/flarum-ext-money
• cbmainz/flarum-de got replaced by kakifrucht/flarum-de
• dem13n/nickname-changer
• darkfoxdeveloper/flarum-ext-spanish got replaced by darkfoxdeveloper/lang-spanish
• datlechin/lang-vietnamese - a more up-to-date version replacing two duplicate Vietnamese extensions
• All OAuth extensions got merged into fof/oauth - do not forget to update. We've also removed the Google OAuth & Steam OAuth for the time being, because they conflicted with fof/oauth - they will be re-added eventually when compatible versions become available.
• reflar/doorman got replaced by fof/doorman
• [fof/passport](https://discuss.flarum.org/d/5203] [conflicted](FriendsOfFlarum/oauth9 with fof/oauth too.
• jordanjay29/flarum-ext-summaries - not yet updated to beta.14.
• nomiscz/flarum-ext-auth-steam - related to fof/oauth conflict
• All of ReFlar's extensions:
  • reflar/cookie-consent - we'll add a notice about cookies in the footer for the time being, since it is required for European beings.
  • reflar/twofactor
  • reflar/webhooks
• saleksin/flarum-auth-google - hippity hoppity, hopefull-ity fof/oauthity will do the trick-etty soon-ity
• The-Turk's extensions:
  • the-turk/flarum-extended-appearance
  • the-turk/flarum-mathren
  • the-turk/flarum-welcome-widgets
  • veriael/flarum-polish got replaced by rob006/flarum-lang-polish

Those are a lot of incompatible extensions... But don't worry, some of them got replaced with updated versions. They will all come back when they become compatible. We promised to update when 2/3 of the extensions are compatible, so let's go!

Also, don't be upset, we've got a few new ones in our disposal too:

• clarkwinkelmann/flarum-ext-first-post-approval - [Requested Here]
• fof/upload - [Discussed Here] - we've disabled the local file upload option globally - you MUST setup either Imgur, AWS S3 bucket, or Quiniu upload options to be able to upload files. We haven't tested any of those, so be sure to report any unwanted errors that might appear.
• maicol07/flarum-ext-sso - [Requested Here]
• littlegolden/flarum-lang-simplified-chinese - replaces both old Chinese extensions, [Requested Here]

We're aware that we've removed quite a lot of extensions in this update. But we have to move forward. All of them will come back when compatible versions become available, so don't worry

Other things you might need to know

1. We will put a notice about the update in the header of every forum with link to this post. This should disappear as soon as your forum updates.
2. There might be downtime during the upgrade. Do not panic, we will try to resolve that as quickly as we can.
3. Your data won't be deleted. You can re-enable the extensions and continue discussing ;D

We will try our best to ensure that everything goes smoothly. The update might take from 2 - 24 hours, depends on the forum amount to upgrade. For now, sit tight and do what you do best - you all deserve a break ;D

If anything goes wrong, we will try to fix it as fast as we can. We've got backups, obviously, so don't worry

Update, as of 12:34

So far, everything is going smoothly and we're currently letting our system to synchronize the files, this will take some time. There shouldn't be any downtime and your forum should be updated automatically. If a problem appears, just reply to this thread
