2.) Is it possible to set Discourse completely to German? I’m planning a community with a fairly young target audience who don’t know much English.
3.) Is there some kind of showroom so I can see what is possible?
4.) For the connoisseurs among you: Is it easy to create a forum like this: forum.glamour.de
My knowledge is limited to HTML and CSS at a very high level.
기능에 따라 달라질 수 있습니다. 그들의 캐러셀은 커스텀으로 제작되었지만, 대부분의 다른 변경 사항은 CSS만으로 구현되었습니다. 또한 Meta의 Customization > Theme component 카테고리에서 배너, 추가 내비게이션 링크, 추천 게시글과 같은 기능을 더 쉽게 구현할 수 있는 다양한 커스터마이징 옵션을 제공합니다.
I run Discourse on Hetzner, but on a self-managed server. I’ve never tried their managed server offering but it does look somewhat limited, e.g. no root access.
Yes exactly, you don’t have root access with the managed servers. Support told me that it might work with the udocker tool. Unfortunately they could not tell me.
You could use a Hetzner Cloud server. They say there’s a build that includes docker so that’s a good start. I’ve never used one of their cloud server builds that includes ‘apps’ though so I don’t know how that works. Provisioning a new cloud server only takes a minute or two once you’ve created your cloud manager account and they are pretty cheap.
Cloud servers aren’t managed though. I’m not sure you’ll find a managed server where you can have root access.
Note: I’m not Hetzner sales! Just a happy customer for many years.
The Discourse self-installation procedure is the easiest in the business of web apps and idiot proof.
Get yourself a 5€/month VPS server, install and play around with it for a few weeks. You’ll learn the basics, see what Discourse can or cannot do, and the whole excercise costs you a few cents.
Yes. AFAIK there is no access to shell, no ability to use docker etc. so you have or will have some difficulties to offer what your customers need or want.
Yes, you are right. I have heard these arguments before. However, I have actually never needed such a thing. Now when I installed discourse I encountered obstacles for the first time.
