The nginx access log says "212.229.85.68 - milkii [26/May/2023:00:23:51 +0000] “PUT /shared\_edits/p/20/enable.json HTTP/2.0” 500 46 “[https://x.xxxxxxxxx.x/t/shared-editing-test-thread/15](https://x.xxxxxxxxx.x/t/shared-editing-test-thread/15)” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86\_64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/113.0”
I’m relatively new to Discourse but not bad at sysadmin. Any advise? Might I be missing something? Thanks!

Is there more detail in the `/logs`, or possibly in your browser console when you perform the action?
And can you share a list of other plugins you have installed?

Ah, there is an error;

I’m not sure why it wouldn’t have those? Is this a [standard install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/142537?silent=true)?
It may be worth trying a `./launcher rebuild app` to see if that smooths things out. 🤞

No, sorry for not specifying, I installed Discourse through the turnkey method that YunoHost uses.
[GitHub - YunoHost-Apps/discourse\_ynh: Discourse package for YunoHost · GitHub](https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/discourse_ynh) is the YH repo for Discourse integration.
I followed the plugin install instructions at [GitHub - YunoHost-Apps/discourse\_ynh: Discourse package for YunoHost · GitHub](https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/discourse_ynh#install-plugins)
I’ve created an issue over there, because I’m guessing installing an official plugin should be fairly simple, and it’s their method will be incorrect in some way. [Internal server error when trying to use official Shared Edits plugin · Issue #151 · YunoHost-Apps/discourse\_ynh · GitHub](https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/discourse_ynh/issues/151)
Thanks you your help anyhow.
P.S. There is no `./launcher` with the install via YunoHost.

I’m not familiar with this method (and only the [standard install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/142537?silent=true) is officially supported), but it looks like it ships with an out of date `Stable` version:
> **Shipped version:** 2.8.13~ynh1
If you can, you may want to try a [standard install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/142537?silent=true) instead so you can take advantage of all the latest plugins and features. 👍 (and access more support from people here 🙂)
