Welcome to /help/, a board where you can get official and unofficial support for the Sriracha imageboard and forum server.

Feel free to share any questions or feedback related to Sriracha here.

If you found a bug in an official release of Sriracha, and you aren't using any custom templates, please report it by opening a new issue in the Sriracha repository.

If you aren't sure whether you found a bug, or if you are using custom templates, this is the place to ask for assistance.

If you are having problems with creating custom templates, I recommend asking for help in a Go programming language support channel instead, because the issue is likely not specific to Sriracha.

Please do not include any external links in your message. Keep all messages and attachments on-topic. Feel free to share screenshots of issues or mock-ups of suggestions.

While systems with only one CPU core are supported, Sriracha runs best on systems with multiple CPU cores. Systems with even two or four cores enable greatly improved performance versus single core systems.

This screenshot shows Sriracha running on a system with 16 CPU cores. In this case, compared with a single core system, pages were built 15x faster. Pages could be built 16x faster on 16 core systems, but in this case, PostgreSQL is running on the same system as Sriracha.

I need your help to continue developing and improving Sriracha. I pushed the first commit of Sriracha[0] on 2025/04/10 and have worked ever since to make it as private, secure and efficient as possible. Sriracha is free and open source software.[1] When someone downloads and installs Sriracha, I do not get anything in return financially nor in terms of data. I do not include any tracking in Sriracha. My only metrics are the binary download counts on Codeberg and the pull count on Docker Hub.

If you use the software which I have shared freely, there are only two things I ask in return: Please do not modify or remove the footer link to the Codeberg repository. And, if you have the financial means, please make a recurring donation[2] to help fund the continued development of Sriracha. You are welcome to donate anonymously. Any amount you feel is appropriate for your usage and financial situation would be greatly appreciated. If you can't afford to donate, that is okay. I trust you to do what is right for you.

After struggling to find work for a long period of time, I have become homeless. Please consider donating a small amount. I hope to delete this post soon, if and when I regain access to housing.

Ban appeal that sends to a selected email address
Being able to archive boards.


Archiving boards is now supported, starting with Sriracha v2.1.3.


Ban appeals are now supported, starting with Sriracha v2.1.9.


Staff email notifications are now supported, starting with Sriracha v2.2.4.

if a reply was deleted and somebody previously replied to it, could you have it that the reply is struck through i.e >̶1̶0̶0̶0̶ ?


>>214(OP)
Thanks for the suggestion. I wasn't planning on post messages being modified in any way once they are submitted, but this is fairly minor and it does seem useful. I will include this in the next release.


>>214(OP)
This feature is now supported, starting with Sriracha v2.2.4.

Will sriracha ever have more ranks like jannies or mediators or the like?


After thinking through dismissals in a bit more detail:

When a screener dismisses some content, it is dismissed from all screeners, but stays visible to admins, mods and janitors.

When a janitor dismisses some content, it is dismissed from all screeners and janitors, but stays visible to admins and mods.


>>209
Sounds good. Thank you for listening to my suggestion :)


>>203(OP)
This feature is now supported, starting with Sriracha v2.2.2.

for the gallery feature, I think there should be an option where you can zoom in and out of the image with your scroll wheel.


Thanks for the suggestion. The gallery is powered by fslightbox, a third-party library. Unfortunately, zooming in and out is not available in the open source version, only the "pro" version:

https://github.com/banthagroup/fslightbox/issues/201

If anyone finds a comparable lightbox library which supports zooming, I am willing to consider switching the library out.

Share any feedback related to running Sriracha on alternative networks (Tor, etc.) by replying to this thread.

- Set noip=true to disable recording author IP addresses.
- Set identifiers=false to disable author identifiers, which are based on IP addresses.

I have designed Sriracha for maximum compatibility (no JavaScript or WebAssembly required, no external assets), but I do not run any instances of Sriracha outside of the public Internet. Thus, I need your help to identify any related issues or potential improvements.


>>150
I appreciate the follow-up, but I too think this feature could be useful. I've expanded the scope slightly to supporting whitelisting and blacklisting IP addresses and ranges via text files. Tracking issue:

>>issues/152


>>150
This feature is now supported, starting with Sriracha v2.1.3.


Starting with Sriracha v2.2.0, executables for Linux/amd64 are now hardened. This includes official Docker images. If you are running Sriracha on an alternative network, you should use a hardened executable.

Also starting with Sriracha v2.2.0, nojs=true may be set in config.yml to disallow the execution of JavaScript.

See the Sriracha manual for more info: >>manual#alternative-networks-tor-freenet-etc

two ideas i would like to see
a "noid" feature which will disable identifiers in threads if identifiers are enabled on the system
an enable all feature for banners when a new board is created. currently, i'm having to add every single banner when i create a new board


> a "noid" feature which will disable identifiers in threads if identifiers are enabled on the system
Do you mean allowing visitors to disable identifiers for a specific thread? I don't think visitors should have control over such behavior. Let me know if you mean something else.

> an enable all feature for banners when a new board is created
Global settings make it so you only need to update one banner to add the board to all banners. You just need to make the 'Boards' setting of banners global, then updating one banner will update all banners to match the new list of boards. >>manual#global-settings


>>196(OP)
thanks on the global settings one. for the noid feature, i have decided to change my mind on the noid feature.

how do i increase the size of a youtube video when its playing?


>>193(OP)
This was not previously possible, but starting with the next release of Sriracha (v2.1.7) embedded media will be scaled based on screen size.

>>192(OP)
Thanks for the suggestion. This feature will be available in the next release of Sriracha (v2.1.7).
