Free Flarum hosting on an expert platform by FreeFlarum.com

SKevo However, I still can't access it both in normal mode or private mode. And I access it in China.

SKevo

Dreeam-qwq unfortunately we suspect that China has blocked our IP. We still don't know it for sure, and we need to find out what to do next. It is understandable, since most of our traffic comes from China, but there's nothing we can do about it currently

I want to have my blog part on a subdomain like: blog.xyz.com currently it is like xyz.com/blog

SKevo

lakshya I don't think that that's possible with DNS, especially when FreeFlarum supports only 1 CNAME record. What you could do is create a page with just one full page iFrame on some other hosting and that page points to the blog URL. You could then include that page URL in your DNS.

meetdilip

You can have your subdomain point to the current blog URL, right ?

Hewwo idk where to contact but when I activated the progressive web app extension my freeflarum site crashed and it says "Flarum encountered a boot error. Details have been logged to the Flarum log file." :-:

the website : https://geshiforum.flarum.cloud/

Same error, same fix.

I think that it would be useful for forum owners to clear the cache & migrate database from FreeFlarum's settings

SKevo thank you !

We cannot send private messages in our forum anymore. Is this a bug? It was working three days ago.

SKevo

TheFormlessOne they work fine for my forum. Could you be more specific? What is your forum name? What exactly is not working? Are there any error messages shown?

I am currently syncing all forums again due to cache issues across forums. This will ensure that all cache will be cleared, to hopefully prevent further issues

TheFormlessOne

SKevo Our forum name is "mtforum". When chosing a perosn to have a conversation with and trying to send them a message it says "Leider nichts gefunden" (nothing found), even if there's a title and subject text in it. You simply cannot send anything. My forum name is the same

SKevo

TheFormlessOne ah yes, now it happens for me too at your forum. I have checked your forum logs and there is nothing logged there, so it must be a client side error and it was logged in the JavaScript console. Because I am on mobile, I can't check that, but a simpler diagnose is that FoF Byōbu might not be beta.16 ready yet?

SKevo but a simpler diagnose is that FoF Byōbu might not be beta.16 ready yet?

It isn't.

TheFormlessOne

SKevo Hmm... is there any other private message function that we could install?

SKevo

TheFormlessOne not any that I know of, sorry

TheFormlessOne

SKevo Hmm... Ok, thx anyway

SKevo Update, I tried again and it works now.

Hey! Just to make sure I understand, if I ever want to move to a self-hosted Flarum, everything can be downloaded and installed the same on self-hosted as it was on FreeFlarum?

SKevo

aaronhall yes

aaronhall

Okay!

So, I am setting it up. How do I add "sub-tags" to a primary tag?

Also, I use Google Domains and I keep trying to add the CNAME and get this error: Oops! christiantalkforums.com does not CNAME to christiantalkforums.freeflarum.com

Tips on what may be wrong or I am doing wrong? I am putting in the CNAME this: christiantalkforums.freeflarum.com. is that correct?

SKevo

aaronhall How do I add "sub-tags" to a primary tag?

You drag them under a primary tag

aaronhall I am putting in the CNAME this: christiantalkforums.freeflarum.com. is that correct?

Yes, with dot at end.

I have successfuly connected my domain to my forum. A few things to note though:

You can use root (@) domain with CNAME record, but with restrictions that are limited to DNS (or you can't use it at all): https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/why-cant-a-domain-s-root-be-a-cname-8cbab38e5f5c/
You do not need to wait 24 hours - I have connected my domain in 3 minutes. But there are a few "exotic" registars.
Other forum mustn't use same domain root (an error message would appear in that case)

You are trying to CNAME root to FreeFlarum, which is not possible. You should use a subdomain (such as forum.xinbang.tech and anything.christiantalkforums.com, instead of root domains.

This is of course all mentioned in our documentation too (some things mentioned might be outdated though): https://freeflarum.com/docs/how-to/advanced-setup/custom-domain/
