README

Forum Fortress adds cloud-based spam and abuse protection to Flarum 1.8 and 2. It checks supported forum activity with the Forum Fortress service and returns a simple ALLOW or BLOCK decision before Flarum completes the action.

Features

  • Automatic site bootstrap with no API key required for first use.
  • Registration, login, topic, reply, edit, and supported profile checks.
  • Immediate enforcement of BLOCK decisions through native Flarum errors.
  • Regional endpoint selection, failover, timeout, and fail-open controls.
  • Native Flarum Approval and moderation synchronization.
  • Attack mode, connection test, usage status, portal access, and manual sync controls in Flarum Admin.
  • Scheduled heartbeat and moderation synchronization through Flarum's scheduler.

Requirements

  • Flarum 1.8.x or 2.x.
  • PHP 8.0 or newer (Flarum 2 itself requires the newer PHP version supported by that release).
  • Outbound HTTPS access to Forum Fortress services.

The package includes separate Flarum 1 and Flarum 2 admin bundles generated from the same TypeScript source. The appropriate bundle is selected automatically.

Install

From the Flarum root:

composer require forumfortress/flarum:"^1.1"
php flarum extension:enable forumfortress-flarum
php flarum cache:clear

The supported Flarum and Guzzle packages are already present in standard Flarum 1.8 and 2 installations. This scoped command installs Forum Fortress without updating their locked versions. Do not add Composer's -W or --with-all-dependencies option.

Open Administration > Extensions > Forum Fortress, then select Refresh or Connection test. The extension bootstraps automatically when it is first used.

For scheduler setup, configuration, updates, removal, and troubleshooting, use the full installation guide.
