@pfaffman I am using your guide to almost the fullest extent. Except for the part concerning nginx my app.yml # - "templates/web.ssl.template.yml" # - "templates/web.letsencrypt.ssl.template.yml" # - "80:80" # http # - "443:443" # https Can i use your discourse/config/nginx.sample…

I don’t think that there is any reaon to have the external NGINX serve those files directly. I think that you can, but it’ll be hard to configure, hard to maintain, and provide virtually no benefit. If you thought that it would make things faster, why would you use a reverse proxy at all?

@pfaffman I am using it this way because there are other sites running on this server, not just discourse.
