Run other websites on the same machine as Discourse

Hi,

I am just doing a fresh install of Discourse.
I am very surprised that :

  • The setup script does not simply allow to setup on a different port, disabling SSL support, and then it’s up to us to do reverse proxy as we want (Apache, Nging) : It seems such a common setup, it would save hundreds of hours of life to humanity
  • I am even more surprised that the setup redirects us to an outdated forum topic, in which we need to dig for the proper information, instead of a proper documentation page, kept up to date.

Thanks guys anyway for your work, but I think there is room for improvement here.
Cheers
