Hi,
I have setup a multi-site up and running however I am unable to create admin or configure notification email for 2nd site
so i have few questions
How can i configure SiteSettings in app.yml for a) 2nd Site b) ALL SITES
- exec: rails r “SiteSetting.notification\_email=‘’”
I have tried manually connecting to both databases using
sudo -u postgres psql b\_discourse
but when i run select \* from users ( it returns nothing )
I tried running “rake admin:create RAILS\_DB=b\_discourse”- but this is creating the user on first site.
I ran “SiteSetting.notification\_email” command in rails console it shows email from 1st Site - is there any way i can switch database in rails console ?
