Not so easy, unless someone starts to offer managed services for Waterhole. You either have to learn a lot of new things (good) or outsource to developer who is familiar with PHP, Laravel and basic system administration.

You can check for example my post history and how the installation process looks on HestiaCP. Step-by-step. Try it out and see how far you can get.

1. Waterhole is not free
2. See this https://waterhole.dev/docs/main/migrating#migrating-from-other-platforms

He still replies on the forum and most likely preparing soon new update. Let him cook

Do you use VPS or shared hosting enviroment?

Hey Toby!

Just wanted to update that changing file in /core/resources/dist/emoji.js does the job! However it took me couple of minutes to understand why there was still jsdeliver in the background. But after quick debugging I found out that all of emojis are hosted on jsdeliver.

So for example this laughing emoji https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/twitter/twemoji@latest/assets/svg/1f602.svg

Either way this is not biggie and can be replaced in the admin. Wish we had an option to upload .svg files as images. Right now it is not possible, but I can just replace it with icons from Blade with different icon pack.

Thanks a lot for the help! This is all I wanted and I got used to changing this kind of things manually

It might be possible https://dev.to/shelob9/how-to-use-wordpress-as-an-authentication-provider-for-laravel-4gd3. I doubt that this will be in the core, but someone could definitely make an extension for this (?).

Not too late! Happy to see that someone noticed this thread. I was actually working on this for a whole week and managed to make it work yesterday... took a lot of tries. There is still many things I need to verify such as installing icons, redis and updating Waterhole.

I want to write the guide after all the testing, but currently I have to sort out permissions.

php artisan waterhole:install

After successfully running installation you won't be able to access Waterhole.

First I through that the issue was with misconfiguration nginix, but it was simple permission issue.

To fix it I had to do next:

chmod -R 777 ./public_html
chmod -R 775 /home/admin/web/yourdomain.net/public_html/waterhole/storage

The problem is that I suspect this is not right. I don't know what kind of permissions should each folder be inside the Waterhole from security perspective. I also wonder why the permissions did not get set correctly during installation.

Anyone mind sharing that permissions should be for each folder? Much appreciated!

At the moment you can simply copy and paste URL of any Giphy and it will embed it automatically in the post.
In my opinion this feature should belong more or less to chats and would just bloat the editor/community with reaction gifs.

And Giphy is nightmare from the privacy standpoint https://twitter.com/illyism/status/1774425117117788223

Just my two cents, I don't decide here anything :)

Thanks for the quick fix! I will use this chance to test out .gif extension and if that will work :)

I think it is fine, as long as we have "Preview" in the post. It is easy to understand, if you can use preview.

Secondly, $100 annually for updates for a project that does not bring me money, this is unacceptable.

I think the pricing is fair. There is many paid solutions in the same price range. However I do agree about solo developing, but not for the same reasons as you. The main risks are security, so hopefully Waterhole team will grow and we get security audits in the future or someone in the team who will take care of this.
