  • Another option is to route the domain via Cloudflare. This will provide a free certificate, but does come at a price in the sense that it will impact the websocket server to the point where the direct socket doesn’t work, and will fall back to XMLHTTP.

    Is this a sensible option as in will it slow the forum down / increase loading time?

    Is there any risk with doing that then?

    @jac As you do not have a Cloudflare account, we will need to create one - or, I can tack your domain onto my account meaning I will be responsible for it.

    Up to you.

    Before we go down this route, I’m going to wait an hour to see if I can renew the LE cert.

    Having read the last message sent, if you do go down this route I am more than happy for it to be added to your account, but only if you are, or I can create my own.

    Ok, no issues. I’ll add it to my account - but only if the LE renewal fails

    @jac I noticed that the .well-known directories for LE had been deleted from your default web server path, so I recreated them and forced a renew

    @Panda said in Spam spam spam: ok, yes Ive seen the queue, it shows IP, but doesnt have a field for comments from registrant. It’s not designed for that. It merely serves as a gateway between posts appearing on your form or not. @Panda said in Spam spam spam: It would be better if nodebb had this plugin included in ACP list, as not only then do you know its approved and should work, but many people cant or dont want to use CLI on the server That’s a question for the NodeBB devs but in all honesty you can’t not use the CLI when installing nodebb so to be this isn’t a big deal.

    @DownPW sure. Let me have a look at this in more detail. I know nginx plus has extensive support for this, but it’s not impossible to get somewhere near acceptable with the standard version. You might be better off handling this at the Cloudflare level given that it sits in between the requesting client and your server.

    @crazycells hmm. Good point. I actually use my own version of the dark mode plugin, so not entirely sure. However, I think the CSS is probably the same. I’m not at my PC currently but can check and advise later.
