Hello,

Please try to check your forum now. The side bar should be showing correct numbers.

The sidebar category menu and others are cached for 5 minutes. Means they will only update after 5 minutes. I will clear the cache on new post so that the data on side is up to date.

Thank you

Hello,

I appreciate your quick response. I have diligently checked my forum, but despite it being almost 24 hours since the supposed update, there seems to be no changes. The sidebar category menu and other elements are still displaying as 'zero', contrary to the expectation that these should update after a 5-minute cache period.

To provide a more accurate picture of what I'm experiencing, I've attached a screenshot for your reference. This should give you a clearer understanding of the issue at hand.

Could you please assist in rectifying this problem or provide further instructions on any steps I might be missing? I'm eager to resolve this matter as quickly as possible.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello,

I will check and fix this.

Thank you for updating

Hello,

Thank you for notifying me about the update. I would be glad to download and install it. However, as it currently stands, I'm not completely sure about the process involved. Could you kindly provide me with detailed instructions on how to carry out the update after downloading the file?

I'm quite eager to explore the new features but am hesitant without the appropriate guidance. Your assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello!!!
I recently attempted to upgrade from "Simple Forum v2.0.0-beta.7" to "Simple Forum v2.0.0-beta.8". Unfortunately, I encountered an SQL error during the process, which seems to stem from an undefined 'group' column in the 'threads' table. The error details are as follows:
“SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'group' in 'where clause' (Connection: mysql, SQL: select count(*) as aggregate from threads where user_id = 1 and active = 1 and approved = 1 and (group is null or group = -1 or group = 0 or group = 1 or user_id = 1))”

To recover, I reverted back to the beta 7 version. Unfortunately, all the data inputted during my time on beta 8 was lost. As a result, I've had to re-input the data, which has been a disappointing and time-consuming task.
For the upgrade, I strictly followed the instructions provided in the "Simple Forum v2.0.0-beta.8" guide. As such, it's not immediately clear to me why this issue has occurred. It seems like the 'group' column may be a new introduction in beta 8, and perhaps it wasn't created during the upgrade process, or maybe a migration script failed to run correctly.
I kindly request your help in understanding the reason behind this issue, and what steps should be taken to resolve it. Additionally, if there's a way to recover the lost data or avoid such data losses in the future, your advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and help.

Hello,

I think I failed to include the migrations. I will check this tomorrow and update again.

Thank you for letting me know

Thank you so much for your prompt response. I'm eagerly looking forward to your update tomorrow. Additionally, could you please include instructions on how to implement the update? This would ensure that I can apply it successfully.

Hello,

1. The install and update should be fixed in latest beta release v2.0.0-beta.10
2. Your email config looks fine.
3. Not sure why but please try the latest version and then we can check.
4. I am not sure which icon uploads are you talking about. Please provide more details or screenshot.
5. I have added the sitemap section in settings.

Thank you
