Installing Discourse Behind Reverse Proxy using recommended (supported) installation

Hey there, May 2026 update for anyone who find this:

I use NPM Plus. I followed the instructions here, but wanted to add if anyone else is using NPM Plus:
Instead of using the manual Nginx config listed here, OR a custom location, OR advanced settings; you can just use the provided Unix URL without the trailing semicolon, and leave the port empty. Also leave custom locations and advanced setting completely empty.

See image below for an example

I have not tried this on regular NPM, but it may or may not work with the regular/standard NPM as well.

Thanks!
