It’s possible to run more than one site on a single ‘droplet’ (or equivalent), but probably easier to separate them if you can and the configuration will be simpler … also you can migrate and bring them up and down independently more easily …

> Hi. I’m currently using an Ubuntu server and I want to install Wordpress and Discourse, for example: mydomain. com (Wordpress) forum.mydomain. com or mydomain. com/forum (Discourse) I tried some things but failed. Discourse need to be installed with Docker and Wordpress with Apache or Nginx, but there are some conflincts when I’m using both. I’ve searched and read some topics but none helped me (not my situation or didn’t understood them). Thanks for your help!
