Free Flarum hosting on an expert platform by FreeFlarum.com

SKevo

YoF the main site (https://freeflarum.com) is put behind Cloudflare's proxy, that's why it evades the China block. Forums aren't, that's why they are blocked. We could request a floating IP from Hetzner to change IP and see if the error persists. Unfortunately, there's not much else that we can do

Thank you, you are a serious and responsible team. I love flarum and this community 🙂

RSS is back 😀 https://discuss.flarum.org/d/27687-syndication-rss-atom-feeds

Will we see that in next update ?

SKevo

jaypatelani yes, which should be ready hopefully very soon (cca. 1/maximum 2 weeks from today).

SKevo awesome news 😁 Thanks a ton

Hi, is there any way freelarum can take advantage of free cdn like cdn.statically.io and jsdelivr.com ?

Statically is very efficient for image files, it will help ease the burden on the server and deliver it faster , and sure it's free. ( I've noticed that freeflarum, imgbb and imgur's servers don't seem to be near Southeast Asia. This causes the forums here to slow down at sometimes of the year, although it does have cache help. ) - all you need to do is add https://cdn.statically.io/img/ before the image prefix.

For : Example: https://cdn.statically.io/img/i.imgur.com/sk8Nj1u.jpeg

Jsdelivr is similar, but with js and css files

I tried using js replace to do this by adding it to the <head> tag but the system doesn't seem to allow it.

AowVN an extension could probably implement such functionality, but that is out of our scope, as we are just a hosting provider and do not maintain Flarum core or it's extensions.

I understand that the speed at which forums are accessed is sometimes a problem in different regions across the globe. A pleasant solution might be to rent more servers. But servers cost money to rent (and FreeFlarum does not have any working or tested multiserver implementation yet, although I've drafted some in the upcoming rebase). I am not against multiserver architecture, but it would take time to get it working, and that would be a better solution - for now, you can prefix external image URLs in the posts at least, or hire/ask someone to create an extension with the desired functionality

AowVN

SKevo understood, thank you

one more thing, is there any way for me to translate "time" into my language? i tried using fof linguist but time objects are represented with shortcode {time} {ago} . I cannot change it. So it's a bit annoying in some cases

Will the upcoming version solve this problem?

SKevo

AowVN It seems that only language packs can directly modify the day.js file for time localization, and that's already a thing in most packs. As for FoF Linguist, you should ask it's author for clarification (@clarkwinkelmann).

What's the language that you're translating? Perhaps you might be interested in creating a language pack at flarum/lang, if it doesn't exist already? If it does, I can add it to FreeFlarum

AowVN

SKevo I am translating it into Vietnamese , although it has a language pack in freeflarum ( by luatdolphin ) but it is not very complete and made a lot of mistakes . So I decided to continue translating and fix it .

with flarum/lang , I used to think about that too, but after finding available language packs, just think there are 2 Vietnamese packages in the system that are not valid so haven't mentioned it for a while

SKevo

AowVN you could make a PR for the authors to fix the mistakes, so more people can use Vietnamese as a language for Flarum

AowVN

SKevo thanks for suggestion , i have checked , and figured out the problem is in the config.js . file

But I also realized that it has already been translated into Vietnamese . While on my forum, it still shows the date and time in English

I don't know if it's a language pack conflict or something wrong ( not by fof linguist or english pack , tried to disable it ) i also try with another freelarum of my friend and the problem still occurs

The language pack version (original) same as the one on freelarum

Flarum uses Weblate for translation. Maintained through Flarum/lang repository on GitHub

CoolCookie

Hello,
I was using FreeFlarum and I wanted a custom domain to be used instead of 'flarum.cloud'
I tried to use the instructions on the freeflarum.com page to CNAME the domain but it always said
Oops! (domain) does not CNAME to (forum url)

How do I CNAME it? Please help
I am using cPanel

SKevo

CoolCookie are you trying to CNAME purpurforum.ml.purpurforum.ml or just purpurforum.ml? CNAMING root domains is not possible with FreeFlarum (as this has been mentioned often recently), and 4 domain levels, or whatever you call it (I'm not a domain expert) are probably not supported either.

FreeFlarum in general expects a syntax like a.b.c. I haven't looked into domain linking code much, and I probably will before the rebase. But we recommend to use a name like forum.mydomain.tld, which is guaranteed to work almost all the time. Root domains or other formats just tend to cause issues, as CNAME wasn't really built for them

SKevo

AowVN that's because the pack uses the old Moment.js library, which was replaced by Day.js. The old format is not supported anymore.

See https://github.com/iamkun/dayjs/tree/dev/src/locale - you might need to modify the correct script to make it compatible with Flarum. Sse the Dutch pack's implementation for example of the syntax: https://github.com/flarum-lang/dutch/blob/main/locale/config.js

Hey @Sanguine, could you change to flarum-lang/turkish instead of tolgaaaltas/flarum-ext-turkish and tolgaaaltas/flarum-lang-turkish?

SKevo

tolgaaaltas that will be done when we update to Flarum 1.0.4, as that package is for ^1.0.0 only

tolgaaaltas

SKevo Ok, I thought you already upgraded.

SKevo

tolgaaaltas not yet, but we'll update this weekend. The only things that held us back were extensions and the rebase.

I have already tested 1.0.4 on separate server with same setup and it worked, so we'll update all forums soon.

FYI expect a downtime during the update. Further progress and changelog will be posted here
