Hey guys,

I am new to discourse and do not have a development related background. I was just trying discourse and have successfully installed it on a droplet at digitalocean. This is the step by step tutorial that I followed:  
[https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-discourse-on-ubuntu-14-04](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-discourse-on-ubuntu-14-04)

Now I would like to add my other WordPress blogs to the same hosting account on digitalocean. I know I can add domain names to my droplet by visiting DNS settings. But the URL I want to use for the discourse site is already pointing to my server’s IP address.

Is there something that I need to change so that my discourse site’s domain only points to discourse and I can add other sites too?

Thanks,

If you want to run other websites on the same machine as Discourse, you need to set up an extra NGINX or HAProxy proxy in front of the Docker container. NOTE: This is for advanced admins This guide assumes you already have Discourse working - if you don’t, it may be hard to tell whether or not the configuration is working. You cannot use ./discourse-setup to set up Discourse if another server is using port 80 or 443. You will…
