Hmm, i may have to get my admin ui's off of ports 80/443 and port forward with NPM on those ports instead. The reason I was using nginx on the router was so the server could keep the UI on the normal ports and Nginx elsewhere.
I think then I could remove the router Nginx entries and add the DNS rewrite
There's an idea. I may play with it tomorrow.bill be back on the road, so I'm not keen on doing too much when I can't fix it haha. But right now the router is DNS, so when I did traceroute there was only one stop. But it was the SSL termination that got me. I might be able to download the stream module for Nginx. I think if I wanted to be optimal I may have to totally restructure that part....
Edit: thank you for the feedback, you've given me something to think about
You got me on to something. It looks like Nginx can be configured for tls passthrough https://serversforhackers.com/c/tcp-load-balancing-with-nginx-ssl-pass-thru
I think you might be right on that. I was originally not wanting to do any port forwarding on the router, but I may have to
So even if I remove the SSL cert lines from the router Nginx config, it seems to be applying the router's SSL certificate. I commented out some lines to use a certificate for my root domain, but I'd rather NPM handle that, which doesn't seem to be happening.
I thought you could put the full URL and find it that way as well, but if you mean you want to find it by title, that should work normally, unless i misunderstood
There is also a thing where you'll want undetermined to be selected as well
You should be able to mirror or fork, make contributions there, and you can probably try to do a PR back into the original. You will still have to use github somewhat since that's where the original repo is.
I just got cactus comments working on my writefreely blog. Cactus comments needs matrix, so I got matrix with element set up. It was an incredibly frustrating journey of learning, but it turns out the final bit wasn't too complicated. I'm running on TruNas, which I hear you shouldn't do, but it's too late haha.
I also got the whatsapp bridge set up, but it doesn't look like matrix supports disappearing messages, so I left some rooms it created b/c one of the larger groups easily took up a gig of storage before disappearing messages was turned on.
Anyway, writefreely has federated cactus comments that you can currently only sign in with a matrix account lol. I can try and change that later. I host the photos with picsur.
I think that I need to collect my notes and memories and put it into a blog post, but I don't really want to turn my blog (if I even keep up with it) into a blog about how to self host a blog.
In hindsight, I don't think the comments were worth it, but whatever.
Even your summary is a pretty wild read
Daaaaaamn that's a long list. Saved!
