Hi, I searched the forum but I couldn’t find an answer to help me solve an issue with my freshly installed Discourse instance (with the DigitalOcean image). So basically, the problem is that some settings in Customize aren’t properly saved (the green confirmation button works, but the changes aren…

Hi Olivier, Note that the Digital Ocean one-click install isn’t supported here and we always advise following the standard install . :slight_smile: Can you provide one or several examples of settings names that won’t be saved?

My guess would be some browser extension.

Sure! Here is an example: [Screenshot 2023-06-27 at 17.37.46@2x] Another example: [Screenshot 2023-06-27 at 17.39.53@2x] None of the two text fields save when I update them. I tried to modify these fields in Edge, Safari and in DiscourseHub, it always fails. As I tried in different browser, I…
