Can’t sign up into my nodebb site using proxy
-
Hello guys, every time I try signing into my nodebb site via a proxy, the form bounces back with empty fields. During sign up, it keeps displaying this error - “Looks like your connection was lost, please wait while we try to reconnect”. But accessing the site without a proxy works perfectly fine.
Thanks.

What kind of proxy?

Websockets won't work over proxies. The disconnected error occurred because there's no websocket connection.
We do intend to support several operations without websockets, and I believe login is one of those. If you want this to work, open an issue on Github.

We use a proxy on all of our NodeBB sites and it works. Nginx and CloudFlare proxies in all cases. Has to be configured just right, though.

@scottalanmiller it sounded like he was referring to a 3rd party proxy.

Oh, I see. A very specific proxy for which the site is not configured.
