Free Flarum hosting on an expert platform by FreeFlarum.com
- Edited
Yolo the speed of your forum depends on many factors, such as the amount of extensions enabled recently, any custom scripts or external JS libraries, amount of visitors, traffic during peak hours, etc...
I currently do not observe any degraded performance of a couple FreeFlarum forums that I have visited. It is difficult to track issues such as this, since there is currently no monitoring for slow forum loading in place from FreeFlarum's side at the moment. Please note that FreeFlarum is a free and community provided service. I do my best to optimize it as much as I can for the thousands of forums that we host, while being able to handle server expenses through donations (e. g.: not renting stronger and more expensive server equipment).
If your forum depends on top speed and minimal latency, then I recommend you to migrate to a different hosting, such as Blomstra perhaps? FreeFlarum was never intended for serious forums anyways, but rather as an empty canvas, the foundation for your upcoming community.
Anyways, I'll be happy to assist you by either providing your forum data and other details you might need when migrating; or try clicking around your forum & checking some extensions you have enabled, if you contact me through E-mail

SKevo Hi, my friend recently donated to FreeFlarum! How long would it take for the Powered by FreeFlarum to be removed off my forum?

BigBlueChips hi, I got the donation, thanks! The donation message didn't include the forum name in the recommended format, so your forum wasn't marked as donor automatically. In that case, the donation must be processed manually (you should receive an E-mail now that I checked it)
SKevo Up2Vex this is not something that we can change. It is related to Flarum or an extension. You will have to report it to the developers. It might be enough to apply some CSS fix, but I don't know what CSS code to use, sorry. What you can do is try and look into your browser's dev-tools for possible errors in console or CSS styles. If you tell me your forum name, I could look into this for you instead, when I have some spare time.
Hi my forum is https://forum.senpa.io

Dear admin, I can't send mail from my forum. Now I can only register as a member by turning off email verification. Can I ask for help? My forum name is fouzhai, thank you!
In addition, do the existing plug-ins have the function of searching Chinese content?

Up2Vex your forum has a lot of posts. Please, share a link to a specific discussion which has the notifications that you want to hide
d_ezhi I can't send mail from my forum.
That's because you have used admin@[...]
address with the mail
driver. That's unfortunately not how E-mail works (e. g.: you can't send E-mail using FreeFlarum's server with your custom E-mail address; the mail
driver only expects E-mail addresses in the following format: noreply+<your forum name>@freeflarum.com
).
In order to use a custom E-mail address, you must own a SMTP server at your domain and then input the details into the smtp
driver. When you are done, please use the "Send Test Mail" button to test your E-mail configuration. FYI, I have reset your E-mail address to the default one, so it should work now.
I would also like to inform everyone that all FreeFlarum forums might experience a downtime today due to upgrade to Flarum v1.7.0. To speed this process up, please fixup your forum at https://freeflarum.com/settings/forum_settings. I apologize for the inconveniences & thank you for your patience.
Note: all donor forums should be online already, as they were fixed up with priority
thanks my friend
Password for database show up again. https://wolfshards.flarum.cloud

wolfshards please, see my recent announcement (SKevo). I see that your forum is accessible now, therefore I assume that your forum has already been fixed up and that it is available for you now?
SKevo I already fixed up by accessing on settings and fix it. Sorry for misleading post. Some update just broke my database sometimes.
Some of the extensions are broken on my forum... these are extensions created by users... what is going on? I also own my forum and I don't see "Moderation" yet I have permissions above it. Here's some extensions which don't work:
- Color Circles
- Asirem Theme
- FoF Drafts
If I see any others which don't work, I will let you know. These extensions are intended to work and have had no previous issues, please let me know why this is happening.

Something odd, quotes are not working? Normally when you highlight text, the quote option popup appears, but now it doesn't. It's not working since today, possibly this afternoon?

SKevo I would also like to inform everyone that all FreeFlarum forums might experience a downtime today due to upgrade to Flarum v1.7.0.
Since the update, some features are not working anymore. It is not possible to reply to a post. Just the normal answer at the bottom works.
Also at least these plugins have no function:
- mobile tab
- scroll buttons
- Private Discussions (please! get it back
)

i would imagine they are sorting it out now..lots of things are not working right, I just found out "Likes" are not working.
Half of the extensions on my forum site do not work....
