hi @baris , first of all, thanks for this update and support...

I am copying the codes from this page:

Upgrading - NodeBB Documentation

(docs.nodebb.org)

but when I click the "copy to the clipboard", it brings $ signs as well, is this normal?

I had to upgrade to node v18 first, I took care of it, and then, I had this error on the log:

./nodebb upgrade
Dependencies outdated or not yet installed.
Installing them now...

@crazycells Expected, yes. Intentional, no. We should replace those code blocks to not include the $.

I used them to denote regular login shell vs root.

Updated docs and removed the $ from commands
