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

SKevo

We are currently going to upgrade all forums to Flarum 1.0.4, FreeFlarum to 3.0 and PHP to 8.0.8. There will be a downtime for all forums, and also for the main page. We don't know how long will it take, but hopefully not so long. Further progress will be posted here.

YoF

SKevo Will some new extensions appear after the update?

SKevo

YoF yes

After nearly 2 hours, the update is now done! All forums just need to be synced, but other than that, everything should work.

I will now have to fix some small overlooked bugs, and get the documentation up and running. There will be a changelog of everything that had changed, but I'll post it there too after I am done.

Ehem Byobu didnt make it? xD

SKevo

aaronlbpeterman not yet, we need to wait until all forums are synced before we can add new/old extensions.

FoF Byobu was using the dev-dk/16 branch for beta.16, and I had to remove it in order to allow for the upgrade to be done. I didn't know that it was 1.0.4 compatible back then, and already started syncing the forums (so I didn't want to interrupt it)

aaronlbpeterman

SKevo Oki.

Mith

My forum is just displaying a white page, working fine yesterday. Is this something related to the update?

SKevo

Mith yes, all forums must be synced first. Please, be patient and give it some time, the more forums we have, the longer the synchronization is taking.

If you need to be synced now, tell me your forum name and I'll sync it for you

Mith

SKevo

No problem and no rush! I’m not the most technically literate so I feared I might have done something wrong. Thanks.

Just a suggestion, why not make something like this - "If you donate this amount, we will unlock 1k Members on the forum (not just 250).

My forum is forum.mednotes.in ! It is down for now

AowVN

SKevo hi, my forum is aowvn.flarum.cloud , pls help me to sync it, tks a lot

YoF

yashddsy26 Is there a limit to the number of members now?

SKevo

yashddsy26 Just a suggestion, why not make something like this - "If you donate this amount, we will unlock 1k Members on the forum (not just 250).

Everything will be explained soon. Short answer: we don't want to make donations feel like paid plans.

yashddsy26 My forum is forum.mednotes.in ! It is down for now

What is your forum name? The part before .flarum.cloud, when you registered the forum.

YoF Is there a limit to the number of members now?

The recommended/soft limit is 250, just like before, we didn't change it

yashddsy26 they will warn you and tell you to host the forum elsewhere.

Only if it becomes a problem and drains other forum's resources.

Honestly, if you want to have more than 250 users, you should self-host. For now, common questions are answered therey although I wanted to wait until we'll do a proper announcement and when all forums are synced: https://freeflarum.com/docs/faq/#donation-faq

aaronlbpeterman There is a bug causing appearing footer on forums which has donated to remove it!

Previously, we didn't save how much amount did forum owner donate. From now on, we do keep track of the donated amount for the perks. I have bashed a quick script to give all previous donors a 7 € donation, just for them to be recognized as donors. If you know how much you donated and still have the PayPal receipt, you can tell me your forum name and I'll fix it for you. More info on this later

yashddsy26

YoF Yeah Soft limit of 250! More users can sign up but traffic must be limited to an extent.

aaronlbpeterman

There is a bug causing appearing footer on forums which has donated to remove it!

SKevo

aaronlbpeterman fixed now, there was apparently a bug where is_donor flag in database was not set for all donors, so I filtered forums by checking whether or not their footer is hidden or not. All donors that donated before 3.0 now have a dummy 7 € donation amount (enough to hide the footer).

In case that you have a PayPal receipt of the donated amount, and your donation would give you higher perks, please E-mail it to info@freeflarum.com and we'll fix the donated amount. This is because previously, we didn't keep track of who donated how much.

I am pretty busy right now, but I'll try to make a changelog post here on Discuss this evening

YoF

yashddsy26 It means that only a maximum of 250 members can be registered? Or can only 250 people be online at the same time?

yashddsy26

YoF

Any no of people can sign up and any number of people can be online, but when the no of people exceed 250, and there will be more traffic, they will warn you and tell you to host the forum elsewhere.

Yeah I appreciate the donation part, but again you are offering so much, then why not extend members with a little amount as an option who wants to. I understand hosting take resources but for a non-programmer like me, it can be a boon to just pay some amount without thinking of hosting to other platforms. You guys already made Flarum for us so reachable and easy to use. (Just my opinion)
My forum is https://forum.mednotes.in.flarum.cloud [Working Now - https://medforum.freeflarum.com]

Btw thanks a lot for all the work you have done for free, I can totally relate to that. I also run a non-profit platform for Medical Students offering them free medical notes and stuff.
