Hello! I’m using a standard installation of Docker Discourse on Ubuntu and want to setup a forum mirror in .onion Tor network. I have installed Tor on server and now I have myonionsite.onion address. #install apt install -y tor #uncomment in /etc/tor/torrc HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/myonionsit…

There is a TOR template for discourse: templates/web.onion.template.yml main # Adds another server on port 80 for hidden service hosting run: - exec: cmd: # Check DISCOURSE_ONION variable has been configured - if [ -z "$DISCOURSE_ONION" ]; then echo "DI…

[image] Bhanu Sharma: DISCOURSE_ONION Hi mate, did you find solution to setting up TOR correctly ?

The web.onion.template.yml needs some updates in order to work. Please try this patch . Besides that, you probably also need to point HiddenServicePort to 80 127.0.0.1:80 instead of 80 127.0.0.1:8080.

Using the container IP should work? (:

Can Discourse theoretically serve the same instance under two domains?(.com and .onion) For instance, can it generate links dependent on what domain it is being accessed from. What would be the “primary” domain name (i.e. for links in emails). Etc.
