    @pitaj

    Maybe Heroku doesnt allow the parameters like --no-silent --no-daemon

    I think I should start nodeBB on my local server

    @jimmyc2018 said in Free HTTPS for NodeBB:

    I just setup "Let's Encrypt" yesterday but today noticed "Secure" doesn't always show up beside my URL as I'm browsing back and forth through my NodeBB forum.

    There's even one forum Topic/Page that always shows up without the "Secure" sign. Even if I repeatedly refresh the page and clear my browser out and come back to it.

    Has anyone else experienced this?

    On top of changing the URL to HTTPS, you should setup forwarding so people always hit your https page.

    With CloudFlare I have these setup:
    0_1518196963653_70ff6121-ce58-4336-b215-43bb9d20aa12-image.png

    For good measure, I have the following in my nginx config too:

    server { listen 80; server_name gamingexodus.com www.gamingexodus.com; return 301 https://$host$request_uri; }

    Though looking at my nginx block now, I probably need to say return 301 https://gamingexodus.com$request_uri; to ensure www is not used.

    Hello there!

    NodeBB is designed to work best under a virtual private server. Using a traditional hosting service is not recommended as they do not have the capabilities to power NodeBB effectively.

    The code and instructions can be found here at our project repository Full instructions can be found in our Documentation Portal We recommend DigitalOcean to host your NodeBB, you'll get a month free just by registering with this link. You can also try applying the 10TOSHIP coupon to get another two months free, and as an added bonus, you'll be helping us out too!

    Thank you for your interest in NodeBB!

    Upgrading from 0.7.3 to 0.8.2 / 0.9.0

    I've already tried to go straight from 0.7.3 -> 0.9.0 with success. Plugin support hasn't caught up yet though.

    @pichalite , I'm using a 2nd instance of nodebb, with a 2nd mongodb instance. I first upgraded my plugins to the latest, ran ./nodebb upgrade while on 0.7.3

    I then:
    git checkout v0.8.x
    git pull (just in case)
    ./nodebb upgrade

    running in dev mode just crashes and relaunches when hitting the categories page. When I first installed the forum, I was using v0.8.0 and switched to v.7.x since the plugin support wasn't updated yet.

    I am using the Vanilla theme and it upgraded to 4.0.8 after switching to v0.8.2
