    @hari can you provide the nginx.conf file or the Flarum config file ?

    @hari

    there is nginx.conf file in ask directory

    So are you using Apache or NGINX ?

    @hari ok, what you have here is NGINX acting as a reverse proxy to Apache. This means you should make the changes in the Apache .htaccess file.

    @phenomlab i have tired both full path and path

    /home/master/applications/sadfsdaf/public_html/ask

/home/master/applications/sadfsdaf/public_html/ask/public

    it is not working and redirecting to the main domain.

    sir, looks like you are somewhere outside i will wait till you come online/get free.

    –

    should i need to edit htaccess of public_html or htaccess of ask folder?

  • phenomlabundefined

    @hari should be the ask folder. If you drop me a PM with the server details I’ll have a look at this tomorrow.

    EDIT: I noticed you’ve raised this on Flarum’s forums

    @Hari I think you’re referring to this

    https://sudonix.com/topic/170/creating-posts-from-rss-feeds-in-flarum

    However, this code was never designed to work with WordPress, but you could leverage the WP-CLI to do something similar without too much effort.

    @Hari said in Flarum SEO is worst and i still want to use it 😭:

    Flarum is coded in such a way where it tells spiders not to crawl any internal links by adding nofollow tag. How stupid this is

    Yes, I agree this doesn’t make any sense. If you compare to WordPress, then (via a plugin of course) you can set the attribute as you wish. It doesn’t make any sense to take a blanket approach. I guess I unerstand why they are doing this, but it’s not an optimum SEO methodology.

    @Hari said in Flarum SEO is worst and i still want to use it 😭:

    For few minutes i thought i should register a domain called flarumSEOsucks.com

    They’d probably sue you for using the Flarum name in a URL 😕

    @Hari Glad to see this went so well, and that you’ve finally departed the Flarum ecosystem 🙂

    @phenomlab said in Flarum:

    @jac yes, but they are lacking severely in the sense that they still do not have a functional GDPR extension. In addition, Flarum uses PHP as it’s backend infrastructure meaning it’s going to be so much slower than NodeBB will ever be.

    Absolutely, I hope Node up their game 😆😉.

    Certainly plugin wise anyway 😉

    @mike-jones Yes, you’ll typically see this type of behaviour if there is another style that has higher priority in the sense that yours will be overridden. Using !important will override the higher preference, but should be used sparingly rather than everywhere.
