Many NodeBB forums have a message... connection... lost...

[smarty]

What is the problem? Many NodeBB forums have a message: Looks like your connection to (forum name) app Forum was lost, please wait while we try to reconnect.

Also * .nodebb.com forums.
An example of a problem http://suunto.nodebb.com/ & http://focus.nodebb.com/

because of the way websockets work, the server only accepts websockets from the true forum URL. For instance, the suunto forum is actually at https://forum.suunto.com/ which does not have that message.

The "connection lost" message is usually caused because the URL at which you are visiting a NodeBB forum is not the "url" value set in config.json

I can be on mangolassi.it for hours. Then I leave that tab and work in another tab for a while, and then when I click back on the tab for mangolassi.it I will be spammed with connection lost.
