Hi, my forum v1.9.0 installed in subfolder. The link in Top Referred Topics admin section does not contain subfolder, see an attached picture.
Aha we should fix this @neil
Thank you, Jeff! One question… how does the team handle updates of stable releases? Could you point me to the reference if it exists, please? I would like to stay on v1.9.x.

Edit your app.yml
to point to the stable
branch. Then, run /var/discourse/launcher rebuild app
which will upgrade to the latest stable release. In the future, you can upgrade through the admin UI as usual.
However, you should note that the stable
branch changes less often, but isn’t necessarily more reliable. I’d recommend that you stick to beta
to get fixes for issues as they are developed
Thanks for the fast and detailed explanation! Beta aka test-passed branch is less suitable for me). I just wonder to know if stable branches still develop after release
I’ve been supporting two Discourse instances since October 2017 after migrating from different forum engine. We use Discourse as a platform for customers and we are software developers familiar with beta-state, therefore it is better to have predictable forum than beta version. Too many surprises may happen during beta-period
Stable releases only get security fixes and occasional bugfixes for the most severe „pants-on-fire“ bugs
Sort of, for the first two weeks after a release we tend to fold in any low risk bug fixes as well.
Sorry for probable offtopic, but here it is today’s crash. The proof to choose stable branch.
I fixed this bug in beta today.
