So, I foolishly disabled all the login options in the admin settings of my discourse installation.
Then I logged out.
Now I can’t log in. When I click ‘login’, the login box is completely empty.
Silly I know, but is there any way to restore?
Disabled login, now can’t login
JamesRamm accidentally disabled all login options in their Discourse admin settings and is now unable to log in. The community has offered a solution:
To restore login functionality, admins can SSH into their server and run the following commands:
cd /var/discourse
./launcher enter app
rails c
SiteSetting.enable_local_logins = true
Alternatively, admins can use the admin-login system by visiting https://forum.example.com/u/admin-login (jomaxro).

You’ll have to SSH into your server, cd /var/discourse, ./launcher enter app and then rails c to changes the values of some of the SiteSettings ![]()
If you have access to the server, sure:
/var/discourse/launcher enter app
rails c
SiteSetting.enable_local_logins = true
So, about those presence features… perhaps Discourse also needs an “@user is composing a reply” indicator? ![]()
I would still continue writing my reply ![]()
In addition to modifying site settings via the console as suggested above, admins can also get in through the admin-login system. https://forum.example.com/u/admin-login
