Looking for a tutorial on discourse/wordpress 1 machine install

Easiest way will be to do it as follows:

  1. Shut down nginx
  2. Install discourse per official install guide

https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md

  1. Follow other sites on same server tutorial to create a server block in nginx to forward requests to Discourse and modify the yml to use sockets.

Adding an offline page when rebuilding
The above link should give you a good starting point

  1. Rebuild discourse with new configuration
  2. Start nginx
