@Sanguine Donno what magic u did, every time i do anything on my server i get error on flarum. Ur setup is juts litt. Please answer my few questions.
What is memory and storage allocated per instance?
What if other instances come across high usage, will it affect mine?
Uploading images will be available ever?
U mentioned u can control it from control panel in roadmap, how can i do so? How can i install my own extensions
What if i want to do some changes in mysql?
Thanks , i really appreciate ur work

    Fla Thanks. I don't understand though. These URLs have a content-type of application/vnd.api+json so Google should not interpret them as full pages.

    Also, there are no API URLs in the Google index for discuss.flarum.org.

    Do you have any idea?

        PranavJadhav Donno what magic u did

        I went ahead and patched a cache-invalidation bug for FreeFlarum forums, that will be officially fixed in the upcoming beta8.

        PranavJadhav What is memory and storage allocated per instance?

        That is dynamically allocated. There is, however, a limit of 2 concurrent PHP requests per forum (with backlog). In practice, this is enough for hundreds of simultaneous visitors.

        PranavJadhav What if other instances come across high usage, will it affect mine?

        Theoretically yes, but it hasn't happened so far. If it would happen (say, a forum becomes very popular), it would get moved to its own dedicated server.

        PranavJadhav Uploading images will be available ever?

        Perhaps for paid premium plans, but there is no specific roadmap for that yet.

        PranavJadhav control it from control panel

        PranavJadhav What if i want to do some changes in mysql?

        You can currently only change your custom domain, and download mysql data + avatars (from https://www.freeflarum.com/settings).

        You cannot run custom SQL, or install your own extensions, as that would break the possibility for mass-maintenance. However, as all the popular extensions are installed, you normally won't require this. If there is anything though, get in touch at info@freeflarum.com and I'll see what I can do for you.

                        arda
                        As @Sanguine said several times, wait for beta 8 and extensions to be updated. Then u can except new one to be added.

                          maniraj1234 could you make a custom 404 Page
                          maniraj1234 Is there a way to provide meta description to threads

                          At the moment, Flarum doesn't support those. Would you mind asking Flarum-specific questions in the Support section of this forum? This thread is about the FreeFlarum service.

                          Antoine My FontAwesome extension is ready to update to beta 8

                          And there was much rejoicing! BBCode-FA added.

                                    Yay! Working great! Thanks again for your excellent service!

                                      Today during the day periodically 504 Gateway Time-out. Are you going to earn on FreeFlarum? Eliminate the errors. Such a service will not cost money. In future.

                                      Sanguine Also, there are no API URLs in the Google index for discuss.flarum.org.

                                      I showed a screenshot. Google sees these links, but they are not in the search. But there will be more of these links. How will Google react to 100,000 such links? Why can not the /API/ close in robots.txt?

                                          PSA: today intermittent gateway errors have been reported at freeflarum. The expected time to resolution is 2 hrs from now. Follow this discussion for updates.

                                          [+14min] A temporary fix has been implemented, everything should work right now. A structural fix is expected within 4 hrs.

                                          The root cause for the gateway timeout error has been fixed as well. Here's a brief wrapup:

                                          Symptoms: today, 402 requests to the FreeFlarum service - spread over the day - resulted in a "504 Gateway Timeout" error.

                                          Root cause: an open file limit in the PHP master process.

                                          Root fix: increase file limit for PHP from 1024 to 16384.

                                          Meta fix: add file limit usage monitoring for all processes to the 5 minute interval monitoring. The meta fix has been tested successfully:

                                          The symptoms were not detected immediately, as the monitoring provider does re-checks to eliminate false positives. Because only a fraction of the regular traffic resulted in a gateway error, most health-probes succeeded

                                          However, with the new meta-fix in place, a similar problem in the future will be detected a long time in advance.

                                          Thanks to all the FreeFlarum users helping to deduce this problem!

                                          do you plan to add the ability to edit the language from the administrative panel? Many extensions are not translated correctly.

                                            @Sanguine Hello. I’m considering free flarum for a new community I am building. I have a few simple questions and did not see them answered here, so... (sorry if they are here and I missed them)

                                            1. Is it possible to allow my users to use their WordPress login to log into this forum?
                                            2. Is it possible to have both an open forum (login required but free to use) AND a closed forum (paid subscriptions only)? How would I manage this? I use MemberPress to set permissions on my WP site.
                                            3. Can I set this up as a subdomain? i.e. forum.mydomain.com
                                            4. Is there any information yet on how much a paid version of FreeFlarum will cost to remove the ads?

                                            Thank you. I appreciate your help!
