I don't know if Zeit Now (while really cool!) would work for NodeBB... NodeBB is a web application, and does lots of stuff in the background that relies on a server running. To have a service that spins up whenever a request comes in would be much too slow, if only because that first spin up would take many seconds!

Are you sure it's the start that's not finishing and not your automation? This may not work but could be worth looking into. cd /home/nestor/nodebb ./nodebb stop ./nodebb start exit 0

Hello, I just want to know if a blog section and/or a forum section would be suitable for a website destined as a professional portfolio. For example, a portfolio website maybe should never include a section about news or sports, as well as it should always include a section about the personal CV, but I don't know if a blog or a forum are ideal or convenient for the portfolio purpose.

Pretty much everything on the example configuration at https://docs.nodebb.org is required

Hello, In order to connect to the MongoDB of my VPS by means of MongoDB Community Compass installed on my PC, I need to provide authentication: username, password and authentication database. Which credentials may I set here? The username admin and the authentication database admin, or the username nodebb and the authentication database nodebb? Also, what must I do with the connection configuration options "SRV Record", "Read Preference" and "SSL"? May I set something here? Regards, Néstor Llamas Llopis
