I’ve managed to set up Nginx to use Discourse as its main site… however i’m having trouble adding addition sites with a prefix, for example addons.domain.com I’ve followed multiple tutorials online and all of them cause the site to not be reached? (my Discourse site is still reachable) how could i fix this? Alternatively is there a way i could host a HTML site within the Discourse files? for example domain.com/othersite? when i’ve tried to do this in the past it just links to my discourse site with a page not found error. Thanks!

What’s currently missing is DNS for addons.gidentity.net. You should set up an A record for this domain that points to 185.38.148.133 :slight_smile:

Follow these instructions to set up an instance of Nginx on the host: [תמונה] Run other websites on the same machine as Discourse Self-Hosting If you want to run other websites on the same machine as Discourse, you need to set up an extra NGINX or HAProxy proxy in front of the Docker container. NOTE: This is for advanced admins This guide assumes you already have Discourse working - if you don’t, it may be hard to tell whether or not the configuration is working. You cannot use ./discourse-setup to set up Discourse if another server is using port 80 or 443. You will need to copy and edit samples/standalone.yml with your favorite tex… Once this is complete, you can configure this Nginx instance to also serve any other domain you want, either directly or by proxying to another server :slight_smile:

Hey, thats what i used for making Discourse work with it.. I was unsure whether i’d do that again for another address? if i do would i just use virtually the same code and change the filename from “discourse.conf” to “blahblah.conf”? Thanks for the response!

What do you want to run on the second domain? If it’s Discourse, you’ll have to install a second instance (or use multisite), and have a second, similar configuration file. If it’s something different, the configuration will be different, of course :wink:

Yeah its something different. Just something i’ve coded myself. Which is where i’m having problems… i’ve tried multiple guides to try and add a 2nd site using a prefix like “addons.” but it doesn’t work (Site cannot be reached)? Here’s an example tutorial that i’ve used: How To Add New Site Into Your Nginx-based Ubuntu Server - ServerMom

Currently have Discourse on gidentity .net (had to space the link because of post requirements for new users) I want to use the custom stuff on either addons.gidentity.net or gidentity.net/addons/ (dont think the 2nd one is possible because of Discourse)

If you followed the guide linked above, you just need to configure another site in the Nginx on the server (nothing to do with Discourse). Google something like “configuring multiple sites in nginx”.

That must be it! Will try that now, thanks.

You’ll need to install Let’s Encrypt in the Nginx on the computer (not the Discourse container).
