Durtdawber apologies for the late response. Could you please tell me your forum URL so that I can have a look? Thanks

I have the extension turned off right now.

SKevo

Durtdawber I've created a temporary admin account at your forum, and I can see that if you navigate to the extension's settings through the search sidebar, after adding a link, it disappears as you have described.

As of right now, I unfortunately don't know what is causing this because the browser console doesn't log any visible errors (I'll have a look at this later to determine the exact cause).

However, after you reload the extension settings page (e. g.: with F5 key), you are able to add a link and hit the "Save Changes" button in order to preserve them (I've successfully created a couple test links at your forum, they're safe to remove now). I think this is just some weird behaviour with the SPA Flarum uses, but further testing is required indeed. I'll let you know if I am able to find the root cause

Durtdawber

SKevo Thank You

Durtdawber

SKevo Got a small problem. When I try to delete the test links, it does not activate the "Save Changes" button so the link do not go away.

SKevo

Durtdawber I see, happens for me too... I've removed them for you. By the way, does any other extension have a similar behaviour where things can't be saved, or just this one?

Durtdawber

SKevo This is the only one I've run into.

Durtdawber

SKevo Now when I go to Administration, I'm getting a prompt for a "Database Password". I don't think that I was given one on Free Flarum.

Durtdawber

SKevo Nevermind. I did a hard refresh on my site and I can get back into Admin. Thanks.

SKevo

Durtdawber yeah, sorry about that. I've updated all extensions, just in case the bug was fixed. It requires the database to be migrated. Normally, this would be done automatically for all forums, but I've synced yours ahead of time, so it should work now

TeamF

Hi @SKevo !
Could you please update fof/reactions ?
Thank you ✌️

SKevo

TeamF done, syncing forums now... thanks for letting me know!

Yolo

SKevo Thank you for your work!
Would it be possible to add a message during an update? I get message after message on my phone because users think the forum is broken 😃

SKevo

Yolo I see what you mean, yes it is possible, I think. I'll have a look at it during holidays

SKevo

@Yolo sorry I had to restart webserver. All forums should be back up now.

User5 I saw your GitHub request, it will have to get some upvotes first before I can include it, sorry

Hello everyone! As the snow falls and the jingle bells ring, I wish you all a very Merry Christmas filled with happiness, health, and heartwarming moments. May your holiday season be as wonderful as the communities you've built here!

Moving towards the holiday season and New Year, I will have some spare time to focus on FreeFlarum more. Specifically, I am considering to maintain an official forum for FreeFlarum related questions and updates. The reason is that (as some of you have pointed out), as this thread grows, it becomes more difficult to keep up with the occasional update posts that are also shared there, as they get mixed in with questions from fellow forum administrators.

You can find the current version of the forum at https://support.freeflarum.com, feel free to register an account there and follow the announcements discussions, so that you are notified of new updates related to FreeFlarum. Please note that the forum is still in a very early stage of development, so please also report any issues you find to me.

For now, this discussion's functionality remains intact, as not everyone is aware of the new forum yet. But as the forum matures, I will also proceed to update all links to this discussion to point to the new forum instead. This thread will then probably be locked, so new communications can take place in its newly dedicated space. Going forward, extension requests will probably be moved there as well, because not everyone has a GitHub account and is therefore not able to upvote them, which effectively defeats their purpose.

That's all for now! Go enjoy your time with families, friends and community, celebrate and have fun together 🎉 🎄

Hi!
how can i change my password @freeflarum ?

SKevo

Steve33 you need to change the password of your admin account (e. g.: the one with ID 1), which will also take effect when logging in to FreeFlarum's settings page (https://freeflarum.com/settings), since they are the same

Steve33

SKevo Hello, unfortunately I didn't fully understand that.

The admin account (User 1) has a different password than that of FreeFlarum. I would like to change the settings in FreeFlarum because the assigned default password is quite short.

SKevo

Hey everyone, sorry to keep you waiting

Steve33 The admin account (User 1) has a different password than that of FreeFlarum.

This is incorrect, the password of the user with ID 1 is the same that you use to log in to FreeFlarum settings at https://freeflarum.com/settings. After forum signup, the admin is assigned a random password that is not sent in an e-mail - instead, a link to reset the password is sent. The default password is unknown to the forum admin.

Are you able to log in with the password of user with ID 1 (e. g.: admin) and the e-mail you used during forum signup (which is not your admin e-mail)?

nichijou Hello. I want to konw wether I can change my forum tag ? (⊙▽⊙)

Only if you create a new forum with the different tag and I re-import your database manually (e-mail me at info@freeflarum.com please)

norby I have an issue going to mysite.com rather than www.mysite.com i'm wondering if there needs to be a nameserver in addition to DNS edit? I have the DNS pointed and its showing secure when i type in www.mydomain,com but i get an error when I type it in without the www.

www and non-www are two different hostnames, FreeFlarum can't point to both. In order to make this work, you need to create a redirect from non-www to www at your domain registrar (for example, if you use Cloudflare, you can use page rules to do this)

norby I think people would pay a standard small fee to have this forum in order to fully support the admin efforts, Any consensus?

norby For example free users only get a certain unique page loads

If you mean that you, as a forum administrator, would charge users based on page loads, then that is unfortunately not allowed at FreeFlarum.

Durtdawber Trying to use the "Catch the Fish" extension. When I turn it on and adjust the settings, all I get is "Something went wrong, reload the page" errors. I can get it to work sometimes but most of the time, even it I get is active and working, I get the error message whenever I try to use it. Right now I have been testing with just Admin permissions. It is turned off right now but one of you guys have an admin account it you want to see what it does. Thanks. URL is https://mytreasurespot.flarum.cloud

Is it working for you now? I can enable the extension and adjust the settings & save them without any issues

nichijou this has something to do with the database not being able to drop an index created by the extension. I'll have a look at it.
