Earlier I installed a search plugin on nodebb, and then I restarted the nodebb service, it shows that the nodebb service has been restarting. I searched for it. I can disable the plugin via ./nodebb reset -p, but my nodebb is installed. In the container, what can I do to knock this order?
Nodebb on my linux

Hello,
I followed the tutorial to use nodebb on my computer as vps, but going on the link defined during the configuration nothing happens, the forum works very well locally but not when I want to put it online.
It is a project that is important to me, if I could receive help for the launch of my forum nodebb from my linux I will be very grateful, thank you in advance! -

the domain name must have been purchased?
What kind of web hosting are you using for the online version? Or only on your computer?
Please explain with more detail so that people can help you.

It seems that you want to use a domain such as example.com. Maybe it's your first site, so I explain a little bit.
You can use a domain without purchasing it, just on your computer for testing purposes, by configuring the /etc/hosts file.
On the other hand, to use the domain for your online website so that people can see it from any computer, you need to purchase a domain name at a registrar like Hover or similar.
And you need a copy of your site on a public VPS. For example, I like Linode, with daily backups and very good service. However, NodeBB people offer a few free months at another good one, DigitalOcean. Anyway, these web hosting services are not expensive (affordable unmanaged VPS).
At NodeBB they also offer managed hosting for large forums, doing the technical tasks for you, but of course it's a different option that comes with a cost.
The software itself is open source and can be used for free if you do the technical maintenance by yourself.

Thank you for taking the time to explain. I would like to host it on my pc, I took a domain name on the internet already, nginx was configured as on the documentation (Ubuntu (recommended)) everything was well done, but at the moment I try to access my site it does not work (http://hyunforum.cf) I just wish to have an explanation, steps that I will miss and that are not specified on the documentation ..

That's right, pointing the registered domain to your local IP, if it's not just for testing (as said, editing the hosts file would be enough for local testing), but on the contrary for using your computer as web host, permanently open to the internet as a server for others to see your site.
I've never tried that, it seems too much trouble when there are excellent VPS for a few dollars a month, unless you do it to practice technical skills. But verify your security (firewall, etc.), and if your ISP allows that, etc. See for example Can I host my own website with my own computer? How would I go about doing that? - Quora

@shiroan-hyun said in Nodebb on my linux:

What Whimpers explained is correct.
Heroku is free ?
Heroku's free plan is limited and just for testing and development, because it "sleeps after 30 mins of inactivity". On the other hand, you can use the already mentioned free months offered by NodeBB at DigitalOcean for a live site.

@shiroan-hyun you are in the right spot, change target from blank to your local IP, then save. Please also send me your nginx configuration
