How to add slug to the url where nodebb shows.

0 home

As tutorial, I could deploy nodebb on http://example.com .
However, I would like to show nodebb on http://example.com/nodebb .

I tried coding like below, but it failed. Any help is appreciated.
config.json

{
    "url": "http://example.com/nodebb",
    "secret": "secret",
    "database": "mongo",
    "port": 4567,
    "mongo": {
        "host": "127.0.0.1",
        "port": "27017",
        "username": "nodebb",
        "password": "pass",
        "database": "nodebb"
    }
}

and, nginx.conf

location / {
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
    proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
    proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1/nodebb:4567;
    proxy_redirect off;
    # Socket.IO Support
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
}

@0-home your nginx config is wrong, I think. Try it like this:

nginx.conf

location /nodebb {
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
    proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
    proxy_pass http://localhost:4567;
    proxy_redirect off;
    # Socket.IO Support
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
}

Thank you very much @night-gold!
now I could access to http://example.com:4567/nodebb.
but I couldn't open http://example.com/nodebb... is there any way to remove port number with this way?

What happens when you access http://example.com/nodebb ? Does it error out, and if so what is the error? Have you reloaded nginx? Have you made sure the nginx configs are valid with nginx -t?

@PitaJ
Thank you for your reply, and sorry for lack of information.

http://35.198.197.213:4567/nodebb/ → success to show nodebb.
http://35.198.197.213/nodebb/ → return 404 on parent site(my case is wordpress on nginx).
http://35.198.197.213:4567/ → return misconfigured csrf error on nodebb.
http://35.198.197.213:4567/nodebb → return /nodebbcategories not found on nodebb.

I reloaded nginx.
I setup and restart nodebb each time.

nginx -t → syntax and test is successful.

now I am trying below
