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

  1. From https://freeflarum.com/docs/faq/#why-are-you-providing-perks-based-on-the-amount-donated-why-not-make-a-paid-plans-instead, altered:

We do not want people to think that we are a commercial service, which we aren't. Soon, they might start to have higher expectations on us, in terms of support speed and forum speed. We can't guarantee you that. FreeFlarum is run by a small team of voluentary people that operate it in their free time. We can't offer people what we can't.

I hope that you get the point here - being at FreeFlarum is a voluentary position and we invest our unpaid spare time in order to keep it running. Making differences between forums in terms of performance, or allowing them to have more users would make it look like we're a commercial hosting service, so we want to make it clear that the perks that we provide do not allow others to get huge or significant forum boost. FreeFlarum is made for free forums in the first place, and donations are completely voluentary and allow FreeFlarum to keep running - that's why we made some small perks for donors to motivate people towards donating and keeping it alive.

I know that you got the point there, but I wanted to make it clear for everyone

  1. So that's medforum. I have synced it for you, so it works now

    Can users in China access it after this update?
    lol
    (I know it's hard。There is no problem if you can't achieve it

      YoF I do not manage our Hetzner instance, so I myself can't request a floating IP to bypass any possible bans, and @Sanguine is recently not available/busy, but we both acknowledged the issue and we'll sort it out it as soon as possible

      1235 out of 2130 forums synced

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

          SKevo thank you . Btw, I don't see the Vietnamese extension in the new version, did you remove it?

            AowVN yes, it wasn't compatible with the latest release

              SKevo yea i did a PR for the extension owner , but it looks like he hasn't been online for a long time .

              Is there any way I can translate language pack of the new version ?

                YoF yes, and it works fine for me

                  aaronlbpeterman yes i'm using it , amazing tool . But the problem here is.... First , i translated it with the old language pack (which was removed in the old version) which causes the Fof Lang to now be 'error?' it doesn't show the words has been translated .

                  Second, Fof lang can't translate {ago} dates or something like that, so I need a new language packs for flarum

                  SKevo Thanks so much for letting me know about that , i will try it
