If I first set up Discourse using the web UI and use that for a couple years, is it possible to transfer all of my information (discussions, members, etc.) to a privately hosted server later? I’m thinking I could start out with the simple setup and then transition to a local server later. How much…

[image] a matter of restoring a backup I think : Create download and restore a backup of your Discourse database

Don’t forget to add your plugins in app.yml if you have any. They aren’t stored in the backup nor automatically installed.

هل يمكن نقل Discourse الخاص بي من الويب إلى خادم؟
