nginx as reverse proxy

@Matt-Worthington Earlier, I did manage to register, although I didn't try posting. Seemed to be working fine for me.

Latest version of NodeBB, or 0.4.3?

[Matt Worthington]

@planner That has always been the case. The site has always been loading. Same for this one (http://sheffieldfitnessforum.co.uk/)

Web console:

@Matt-Worthington Registered successfully, can't post as the categories themselves seem to be restricted at the moment...

@julian
Oh yeah, I can see that. I wonder if it's something on my end then after all this?

What was the URL you used? Did it have the port on the end or just the normal URL?

[Matt Worthington]

I can post if I use this URL : http://sheffieldfitnessforum.co.uk:4567/

Working fine for me now buddy, make sure you delete your cache and all that sticky stuff that causes issues.

[julian]

@Matt-Worthington Seems to be working fine... so at the very least perhaps we can rule out a problem on the server end?

[Matt Worthington]

@julian Thanks Julian, it must be something that my work ISP is doing that is causing something funky. I'll try again when I get home.

Thanks for all the support so far, really looking forward to giving nodeBB a go

[julian]

@Matt-Worthington Yes, occasionally, some ISPs will block web sockets, although in your case it seems like the proxying is not playing nice. It doesn't happen to many people, but it's annoying when it does!

[Matt Worthington]

Just got home, and it's working just as expected. Must be something VirginMedia is doing, as they are the ISP we use at work.
