Free Flarum hosting on an expert platform by FreeFlarum.com

nichijou

It seems that the migration started just now.( 'ω')

SKevo

nichijou indeed. A lot of preparations needed to be made. Apologies for the downtime, I hope to get it up and running ASAP.

SKevo

The migration was complete, and most forums should be operational now

IMPORTANT:

As was announced a while ago, if you are using a custom domain, you MUST update your CNAME to point to cname.freeflarum.com instead, then re-setup your domain at https://freeflarum.com/settings/forum_settings (set your domain to the default yourname.freeflarum.com one - as it was during signup - then set it back to your custom hostname).

This is because the *.freeflarum.com domain is now proxied through Cloudflare, which strengthens the protection and stability of forums that do not use custom domains, at the cost of breaking existing setup. This is just a one-time change. All future forums looking forward to getting their custom domains linked to FreeFlarum will have to CNAME to cname.freeflarum.com instead!

As for all other forums, these should be up and running. The new server has 16 GB of RAM, 8 cores and additional 60 GB of free storage space - essentially, the double of the previous server and a bit more. This should cover the needs of FreeFlarum forums for the foreseeable future. If you like what I am doing, please consider donating to support FreeFlarum - thank you very much!

As always, if you notice anything out of ordinary, please let me know in this thread or at info@freeflarum.com - I'll get back to you ASAP. Lastly, I once again apologize for the downtime, and wish everyone a nice weekend!

SKevo thanks bro, confirmed my forum back online, cheers for your works, wish you best of lucks and happiness !!

TeamF

SKevo It works. Thank you!
Strangely enough, the thumbnails or profile pictures on the site load endlessly and are not displayed.

Update:
It is because all uploaded images are not showing.

Hello,

I'm sorry, I'm lost with this.

When you say "update your CNAME to point to cname.freeflarum.com", you mean "cname" in the url must be replaced by our freeflarum name? Because in my host, the CNAME redirection already points to a "cinstudtest.flarum.com".
And what do you mean by resetup the domain?

Sorry, I'm must be slow on this but I wouldn't want to broke anything...

If it helps, for now my redirection host looks like that (forum.cinestudia.fr being my desired final url):

And the freeflarum settings looks like that:

Akizuki

seem like something went wrong again 🙁

SKevo

TeamF it was because your domain was set to FreeFlarum's default, not your custom domain. I have fixed it for you now. Have you updated the URL back to your custom one in your FreeFlarum settings? I assume that Yolo is having the same issue

FYI you can verify that FreeFlarum is aware of your correct custom URL by hovering over the forum tag link displayed at https://freeflarum.com/settings/overview

Yolo

@SKevo the uploaded images are not there anymore 🙁

TeamF

SKevo Thank you! Works fine now

Yolo

SKevo I assume that Yolo is having the same issue

My fault! Everything is cool now. Have a nice Weekend and ty!

Yolo

This has nothing to do with the current topic! The problem was already there.

I would like to back up my data. Unfortunately, that doesn't really work. When I click on "Export to CSV" in Settings I get:
Bad gateway Error code 502

SKevo

Yolo it seems to work fine for me. I assume that there is something wrong with your forum. Could you let me know which forum has this issue, so that I may look into it? Also, try fixing up your forum beforehand (https://freeflarum.com/settings/forum_settings) to see if it works

FYI, if you want to create regular backups of your forum, then it is better to use the "Download Data" button above, as exporting certain tables to CSV does not provide you with a full backup of your forum. I have added that ability because someone requested it for analytics purposes, but it isn't meant to be used for backups

I have changed settings for my www.unitedbsd.com but it is still not loading.

Edit: solved it 🙂 thanks

got error: https://prnt.sc/6c-6Y6zFf6Cg

Hi, today i am getting a cloudflare Error 1014 CNAME Cross-User Banned with my website. Is this freeflarum problem?

SKevo

Algo have you re-set up your custom domain, as was mentioned here?

Algo

SKevo Ups nop, i didn´t see that. Now is working, thanks 🙂

SKevo

Yolo I understand, but can't reproduce the issue which leads me to believe that it is somehow specific to your forum, and I don't know why... Knowing your forum URL would help me to debug it, and I understand if it's private (you can e-mail it to me too)

CavusRex

Hi, since this weekend my forum is stuck with an error and on a constant reload loop.

Error in question:

Network connection error This app requires a network connection; it cannot be used offline. Please check your connection.

This a FreeFlarum issue or something related to Flarum itself? The forum wasn't edited settings wise recently and the Fixup Forum doesn't do anything.

SKevo

CavusRex have you re-set up your custom domain, as was mentioned here?

CavusRex

SKevo Haven't yet, so that's probably the reason. I'll make the changes. Thanks
