I've successfully deployed NodeBB on OS. The only problem is, how do you change localhost:4567 with the actual domain name?

@Aureney You're following the wrong docs. Those docs are intended for static file delivery, not for a node.js application that is already listening to a port (like NodeBB does). listen 4567; within nginx says you want to listen for requests to example.com:4567 . If you want to listen to http requests for example.com you need to listen 80; . You now need to internally forward (proxy) those requests to the port on which NodeBB is listening ( 4567 by default). Take a look at the docs I've referenced above for examples of correct configurations.

@Aureney
example.com works fine except www.example.com does not. How do you fix this.
In your DNS. Forward www.example.com to example.com
how long can NodeBB run?
Until it runs out of memory.

What if the computer is shutdown, does the website still run?

No.
