A simple, beautifully designed forum software for building online communities. Modern, fast, and extensible with hundreds of community extensions.

What You Can Do After Deployment

Visit your domain to access the Flarum installation wizard. Complete the setup with your admin credentials and forum name.

Discussions: Create and participate in discussions with a real-time feed. Discussions use tags for categorization and support mentions, emoji reactions, and rich text formatting.

User management: Built-in registration, login, and user profiles. Supports SSO with OAuth providers. Assign groups and permissions for moderation.

Extensions: Hundreds of community extensions available — add features like polls, SEO tools, markdown support, user badges, blog mode, and more. Install extensions through the admin panel.

Moderation: Flag posts, lock and pin discussions, suspend or ban users, split and merge discussions. Approval queue for new posts if needed.

Search: Full-text search across discussions and posts with Gambits (search operators) for advanced filtering.

Notifications: Real-time in-app notifications and email digests for followed discussions, mentions, and replies.
