CSRF Error - NodeBB 3.x

yasas

Hi there,

I have a test forum (3.x) where everything works. Set it up following the instructions (serving using nginx) and its config.json looks like:

{
    "url": "http://forum.beta.....",
    "secret": "super_secret_xxx",
    "database": "mongo",
    "mongo": {...
    },
    "port": [4567,4568,4569],
    "redis": {...
    },
   "upload_path":"some_upload_path"
}

I recently setup HTTPS (using letsencrypt) and since plugins are using the url from config.json, I changed it from http to https.
Now I cannot login or do anything as it's throwing a CSRF error. I deleted build files and node_modules just in case and rebuilt and the issue is still there.
However, when I change the url back to http, the issue goes away but this isn't preferable as then the client side is requesting via both http and https which the browser blocks. I've attached ./nodebb log, config.json, and login screen with the error.

Any help would be appreciated. TIA!
[FYI]:
I have followed instructions but the issue is still there InternalLink, ExternalLink

Update: It got solved by adding the following in nginx after reading InternalLink.

proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;

Maybe nginx configuration:

have you test to add
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;

to your Nginx configuration?

EDIT: Ha we posted at the same time
