I need to implement the server so that it listens to port 80 but gives links in https. How can I solve this problem? my configuration now works like this and all the links are in http: expose: # - “443:443” # https - “80:80” # https I try rename in 443 but fail.

You should be able to achieve that by enabling force_https site setting of Discourse.

LetsEncrypt is quite strict and so I do not think they will provide SSL certs for any port other than 443, for security reasons.

Maybe turn on the force https site setting?

Could you explain why you need to do this?

There is an internal server on which Dicsoure stands and is open for listening on port 80, when a visitor asks for a site, it always opens in https (redirects), but all the links are in http. I do not control this infrastructure, but besides port 80 I have no way out

I’m afraid in my case this will not work because I do not work with https actually

I can turn it off, but it seems to me that this will not solve the problem, since enabling HTTPS on port 80 is impossible because of the SSL

Discourse doesn’t support running on non-standard ports. That includes running https on port 80.

Did you try it? Then what are you trying to do? [image] anton21m: I need to implement the server so that it listens to port 80 but gives links in https. How can I solve this problem? Doesn’t that mean that you want links on pages that are served to be https and that you are handling https some other way?

I don’t think that would be possible to do.
