Hi all, I followed @eviltrout 's awesome tutorial here http://eviltrout.com/2014/01/22/embedding-discourse.html but can’t get it to work properly. This is how it looks embedded : var discourseUrl = "http://discourse.ars-artificia.com/", discourseEmbedUrl = 'http://ars-artificia.com/Spring cleaning'; (function() { var d = document.createElement('script'); d.type = 'text/javascript'; d.async = true; d.src = discourseUrl + 'javascripts/embed.js'; (document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0] || document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]).appendChild(d);})(); see https://ars-artificia.com/spring-cleaning/ for reference. My discourse is set up accordingly. I am using ghost to host my blog - I don’t get any changes. Thanks in advance ! For reference here is how @codinghorror embedded discourse in his blog var discourseUrl = "http://discourse.codinghorror.com/", discourseEmbedUrl = 'http://blog.codinghorror.com/the-god-login/'; (function() { var d = document.createElement('script'); d.type = 'text/javascript'; d.async = true; d.src = discourseUrl + 'javascripts/embed.js'; (document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0] || document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]).appendChild(d); })(); and this is my current version: var discourseUrl = "http://discourse.ars-artificia.com/", discourseEmbedUrl = 'https://ars-artificia.com/spring-cleaning/'; (function() { var d = document.createElement('script'); d.type = 'text/javascript'; d.async = true; d.src = discourseUrl + 'javascripts/embed.js'; (document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0] || document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]).appendChild(d); })(); Edit: Found the solution !! As my discourse instance isn’t ssl secured yet, I embedded non-secure content on a secure website. This was blocked in my browser (firefox) because of security issues ! In e.g. interntet explorer everything works fine :smile: thanks a lot for the help, @bartv and @Mittineague ! ISSUE SOLVED Edit: Grabbed some new ssl certs and verified everything is working properly now. Remember that you can’t simply embed non secure content into a https site !

The syslog states nothing unusual and there aren’t any error logs present =/ I’m kinda out of ideas right now, so I’d gladly take any advice … Edit: Found the solution !!

[תמונה] ArsArtificia: but can’t get it to work properly. Change the forum so it doesn’t require being logged it to access it.

Thanks for the suggestion. Porting the posts worked anyway - I changed it but the comments still do not appear. Might be an issue with the ghost templating

“Spring cleaning” is not the same as “spring-cleaning” Make sure discourseEmbedUrl is the canonical URL to the page where you are embedding Discourse.

ah damn. Thanks for pointing that out !

fixed it, but it’s still not working :confused:

the log I can see on my discourse webui doesn’t show anything. is there a log on the filesystem I need to check as well ?

If you’re using a docker installation, I believe you should be able to find those in /var/discourse/shared/standalone/log/var-log

Are you seeing any errors in the discourse server log? I battled this for a while too.
