Hello!
After 2 days of banging my head against the wall and realising Discourse doesn’t like apex domains (and yes, i’ve read the article on the forums explaying that) i was able to install on a subdomain.
My fresh Discourse is here
Now, if only there was a way to make mydomain.com forum.mydomain.com
You could achieve that in one of two ways (both consist of a redirect)
You could use cloudflare page rules to redirect example.com to forum.example.com or
You could set up nginx to perform this redirect for you. I believe discourse’ internal nginx is configured so that all requests coming in are redirected to discourse hostname. See: (Superseded) Redirect additional domain(s) to your Discourse instance
and Congratulations
