Nginx Configuration

Jack18

Hello there,

I recently installed nodebb and nginx on Ubuntu Server 18.04. Gotta say I really like this new forums system. However I'm running into some difficulties.
I have already setup the server block for nginx. In my config.json file the url is "https://example.com". In my nginx server block I set the server_name to example.com and www.example.com. I can access forums with both urls but through www.example.com I keep getting an error saying "Looks like your connection to NodeBB was lost, please wait while we try to reconnect.". I tried making a separate server block for www.example.com but same issue. Could someone tell how I can use both domain names and what I have to config?

Thank you

Thank you so much for the help, also I wanted to point out a syntax error in the example you provided.

"socket.io": {
    "origins": "https://community.nodebb.org:* https://nodebb.org:*"
  }, <- Missing the comma

@Ahmed-Nadeem trailing commas are not allowed in JSON. The implication in that example is that the "socket.io" section is added at the end.
