In the above offering, I do a standard Cloud Install, move Discourse to another port, and install Apache to serve Wordpress and configure it as a reverse proxy. It's pretty much the same as this howto except it's Apache rather than Nginx (and doesn't do SSL, yet). I went with Apache because it makes it easier to configure Wordpress permalinks via a .httpaccess file.
From a performance perspective doing this in a single 2 gb droplet seems like a big win over 2 1gb droplets. It doesn't seem like it should complicate upgrades with either Wordpress or Discourse.
The big downside (right now, at least) is that configuring Let's Encrypt is more complicated (read, I haven't bothered to figure that out yet). Is there something else that I'm missing?
I just received complain from my user that unread badges doesn't disappear when some topics are read. Unread badge disappears only if user changes topic following level to normal.
It appears that whisper posts are causing this behavior. When I deleted last post in topic (which was made in whisper) and asked user to look again at topic. Unread badge disappeared without a problem.
Is this what makes staff whisper communication an experimental feature? Or this is just a bug?
My instance is running on latest "test passed" version v1.7.0.beta7 +209.
For some reason I thought the pricing page offered a way to pay CDCK to migrate a forum (e.g. from phpBB) to Discourse, but run the migrated site on a self-supported DigitalOcean instance.
Is that a product CDCK offers?
(If not, was that product ever available? Or am I just misremembering?)

I recently run out of disk space and following this
my discourse isn't even starting now... I have no idea what to do now and I need help ASAP
It's a +2000 users community and I would like to fix it now.
This is the error I get when I try to start:
Unable to find image 'local_discourse/app:latest' locally Pulling repository docker.io/local_discourse/app Error: image local_discourse/app:latest not found
One of the new features added to Discourse in the wake of Stonehearth's massive spam attack was the ability to limit editing to certain trust levels. This was done in part because many of the spammers exploited a loophole in spam checking by submitting a valid post then editing it within the 5 minute grace period. Unfortunately, this restricts all editing, not just grace edits.
Currently, the following site setting exists editing grace period with a default of 300 seconds. I'd like to suggest a new site setting: TL0 editing grace period, or alternatively allow TL0 grace editing.
My forum (as well as my profile) is set up to open external links in new tab. Yet in category view (/categories) the links in the category description don't open in new tab.
I just found out that group inboxes are tracked by default and not watched. I thought messages are treated like personal messages and thus, watched by default.
Is there a setting to change the default notification settings for group inboxes? How can I make everyone watching its groups that already got an account?
We have around more than 5 lac attachments in Vbulletin. When we imported these posts into Discourse same no of records were created in the 'uploads' table. Recently for some reasons we rebake the posts and all records from 'uploads' table removed automatically. I was checking the code and could not find any trace. Is there any flow in code that is deleting data from uploads folder? Thanks
You can change branding settings under admin/site_settings/category/branding. And add your custom menu links in /admin/plugins/navigation path using Navigation plugin.
Hire me - I can help you if you need more branding customization or in any other discourse related jobs.
In embedding configuration I can setup hostname, path and category so I was under impression that if I set for one hostname different paths and categories I can effectively categorize embedded topics according to path.
For example the following setting would categorize topics on /article/ path to category Články and topics on /course/ path to category Kurzy. However only the first one works and the second one fails with HTTP 403:
It seems that it takes the first item with matching hostname and if path does not match it returns 403 and does not check the next item with matching hostname.
Hi, first of all sorry for my english and thanks a lot for your help
Yesterday, after changing my app.yaml mail settings, my admin panel started showing this message: I changed my mail settings because i was using mandrillapp for mail sending, and now i am using sparkpost.
I already rebuild my app I am using sparkpost for sending mails and it is well configured because i can send mails without problems. My app.yml settings... i think there is nothing wrong with that because the only thing i changed is the sparkpost connect settings. password is hidden
I am back to a bit more work on the the cas_sso app and rebuilding things after doing a full wipe of my dev environment. Anyways I am getting the following while doing vagrant up
default: Downloading: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2132770g1e05c6d/discourse.box?dl=1
An error occurred while downloading the remote file. The error

I love Discourse, thank you for making this great piece of software. You're awesome!
I've just installed it on my local LUG server. However, some of the translations to Portuguese aren't great. Many are missing and some are just awkward. So, I'd like to contribute. I've already joined Transifex and have started contributing. Is the pt_br team really active? Translations seem a bit out of date.
I tries to run discosure as docker container behind nginx on http://my.site/forum path - but it looks like it is hardcoded that discourse always on '/' path - for example after login it's redirected to '/', ignoring config.action_controller.relative_url_root = '/forum' setting in the config/application.rb. Is it possible to get discourse fully running on non-root path?
