HarleyTG I wanna be able to change like people levels like make mine maxed out
And a few other items
IMHO it is quite unnecessary to risk the integrity of the database just for the sake of having max user stats? Which extension are you using? Does it not have a feature to modify the level directly already?
HarleyTG Why is there no database access or a file browser and Editor
FreeFlarum is a free service, and because of that, I think it simply shouldn’t have such features. I understand that file system and direct database access sounds cool, but
a) there isn’t an absolutely forever-free, shared hosting service that I know about that lets people do that without any restrictions, and
b) even if I was okay with it, I would have to secure it in a way that others can’t drop theirs (or even worse, others’) database, and building such system is just way too time consuming for me (again, given that it’s a free service).
My general advice is (and will always be) that if you need such features, please look for a paid hosting that lets you do this instead - ideally, self-host your forum (FreeFlarum lets you export your full assets + SQL dump data anytime at https://freeflarum.com/settings/account_settings, which you can simply move over to your new host).
HarleyTG Is there a way that u can help me with custom URL for forum and mail to custom domain idk how and I tried and had issues
As for linking custom domain, there are docs that document the process in more detail: https://docs.freeflarum.com/en/tutorials/custom-domain/. In short, create a CNAME record on your subdomain pointing to cname.freeflarum.com, make sure it’s not proxied, then link your subdomain at https://freeflarum.com/settings/forum_settings. If you are still experiencing issues, please tell me what error messages have you seen and what exactly do you need help with
As for e-mail, make sure that you have a valid credentials for your (or your e-mail provider’s) SMTP server, then update them at your forum > Administration > Mail (also see https://docs.flarum.org/mail/). Hit the “Send test mail” button to ensure that the settings are working, if not, check https://freeflarum.com/settings/forum_settings (bottom of the page) for logs with more detailed error messages as of what went wrong, or message me.
