FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package flarum-posted-on
Posted On
Show the operating system, browser, and device next to each post. Backed by matomo/device-detector and User-Agent Client Hints.
What it does
Each post records who it was authored from. The post header gets a small chip with an OS icon and a one-line label. Hover for a tooltip that splits OS, browser, and device on three lines.
The detection combines two signals:
- Legacy
User-Agentfor everything that has historically worked: iOS / iPadOS / Android / Linux versions, browser families, mobile device brands. - User-Agent Client Hints (
Sec-CH-UA-*) for the things the legacy UA cannot tell us, namely Windows 10 vs Windows 11 (both reportWindows NT 10.0) and the real macOS version (Apple froze the UA at10.15.7since macOS 11).
When Client Hints are not available (Firefox, Safari, Tor, older browsers), the version is dropped rather than guessed. A user on Windows 11 in Firefox will see "Windows", not "Windows 10".
Installation
Enable from Admin → Extensions, then run:
Configuration
Admin → Extensions → Posted On.
| Setting | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
display_mode |
os_only |
What renders next to the post. os_only shows "Windows 11"; os_browser shows "Windows 11 · Chrome 121". The full breakdown is always in the tooltip. |
skip_guests |
false |
When on, posts authored by guests get no platform metadata. |
Each user can also opt out from their own posts being labelled, under their account settings.
Privacy
The extension stores a coarse fingerprint of the poster's environment: OS family + version, browser family + version, device type + brand + model. This is derived from the request's User-Agent and Client Hints headers; no IP address is recorded by this extension.
You can:
- Toggle
skip_gueststo ignore guest posts entirely. - Let users hide their own metadata via the privacy switch in their settings.
- Drop the
posted_on_metacolumn or null it out to wipe historical metadata.
Updating from earlier versions
Posts authored before this version keep their existing posted_on string and render unchanged. Only posts created after the upgrade pick up the rich metadata.
The first POST a user makes after install may still miss the platform version: the browser needs to see the Accept-CH advertisement once before it starts attaching high-entropy hints. After the first page load the policy is cached and subsequent posts include the version.
