Hi,

I am using the Bitnami/Discourse docker image which I know is not an officially supported release from the Discourse team but have hit an issue with the 3.0.1 version.

When using the discourse-local-dates plugin - set by enabling `discourse local dates enabled` the site fails to load and emits a tiippy error:

```plaintext
Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading '_tippy')

```

Has anyone seen this before?

Again, I know the image I am using is not officially supported but any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am encountering the same issue upgrading from bitnami/discourse Helm chart v8.1.8 to 10.0.5. I can see `forum.example.com/fake` gives me a page not found message for example but `forum.example.com` is a blank screen with browser console log:

@stevejr Thanks for the tip about disabling the `discourse-local-dates` plugin. Let’s hope my my team doesn’t actually need that plugin…

Also for others to reference, [here is the GitHub issue with more discussion](https://github.com/bitnami/charts/issues/14913).
