SOLVED api encrypt plugin
-
I saw the api encrypt plugin was removed from github. Do you still need it for https to work properly or what this built into nodebb?
-
@nsuchy It is probably better to use a proxy for https. I never mucked with the encrypt plugin, I just have nginx as a reverse proxy to the nodebb process (per the documentation). That allows my site to exclusively use https.
-
Is that all I need just to proxy through nginx, that's what I'm currently doing, I saw that plugin in settings and thought I was doing something wrong. I just wanted to confirm I'm doing everything properly.

Yup! I used the instructions here: https://docs.nodebb.org/configuring/proxies/nginx/
There is an example block with SSL in use there. No plugin needed. I use LetsEncrypt for free certs.
