You need to put the uploads/images somewhere that they can be accessed from inside the container. Maybe in /var/discourse/shared/standalone/uploads/ and then they’ll be in /shared/uploads inside the container. You get into the container with
cd /var/discourse
./launcher enter app
Then you’ll be in /var/www/discourse and see the scripts.
By uploads/images you mean .csv file, database image etc
Okay that worked so I now get I was installed onto machine, but then have to go into the docker (virtual machine) , which is where my Discourse instance is actually running and I can then cd /shared/uploads
Well I dont have much budget, and I also like to understand things myself if possible. But if you could get me started with instructions for importing users/topics/forums then Im happy to spend $200 on the advice.
