AI-generated summary

The Discourse plugin discourse-sitemap has been deprecated and merged into Discourse’s core. To remove it, edit your app.yml file and delete the line git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-sitemap Canapin. After editing, rebuild from the command line using ./launcher rebuild app Canapin or update through the interface.

However, if you encounter issues with port allocation, you may need to stop web-only, rebuild data, and then rebuild web-only using the following commands Kjell:

cd /var/discourse/
./launcher stop web_only && ./launcher rebuild data && ./launcher rebuild web_only

Additionally, if you have a web_only.yml file, you should remove the line from this file instead of app.yml RGJ.

Hello everyone,
is there any manual on how to remove discourse-sitemap? Thanks, or if someone can help me I would be very grateful.

I get this message in the control panel

Hiya! :wave:

That is installed as a plugin. If you see the guide for installing plugins at Install plugins on a self-hosted site, the way to remove the plugin will be to edit your app.yml and remove the line with the discourse-sitemap plugin. :slight_smile:

You have to log into your server and edit the file, which is located by default in /var/discourse/containers/app.yml
Any text editor will do.
Near the end of the file contents, you should see this line:

          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-sitemap

Delete this line, and rebuild from the command line (./launcher rebuild app), or update your forum through the interface.

edit: oh, 1 minute late!

It’s okay! It’s best to have multiple approaches to a solution, and this way I don’t have to type them all out!

Both advices use

cd /var/discourse
./launcher rebuild app

However, this runs for a few minutes, then fails with
docker: Error response from daemon: driver failed programming external connectivity on endpoint app (a472c81b9b5....): Bind for 0.0.0.0:443 failed: port is already allocated.

I don’t see any effect on my forum site. What am I missing? For updates that need a the docker containers to be updates, I found that instead of launcher rebuild app I have to run

cd /var/discourse/
./launcher stop web_only && ./launcher rebuild data && ./launcher rebuild web_only

But this does not resolve the deprecated discourse-sitemap.

Welcome Kjell!

Sorry for moving the post back and forth, I misread your problem.

You should remove the line from web_only.yml in that case, not from app.yml.
