I haven't tried these instructions for myself but I'm curious if you already tried to SSH using core instead of root and then su - root?

Please remember that Forem Self-host is intended to be self-administrated, so while we will assist you to use Forem we don't provide instructions on how to use Linux:

Please note that Forem is a complex piece of software, and hosting and managing it in a cloud environment is non-trivial. While the recipes and scripts here are expected to work for the limited scenarios we tested against, use and modification of the recipes, or altering the deployed environment, may require familiarity with the following layers of the tech stack we built with, and ongoing maintenance of the deployed system may require interacting with any of these technologies:
-Ansible
-Your chosen cloud provider - both CLI and UI use
-Python 3 and pip3
-systemd
-Podman
-General Linux administration, especially Fedora CoreOS, including:
-Butane
-Ignition

Thanks for the answer. I have experience using the terminal on linux. What password should I enter when using the command su ? Doesn't accept passwords

I seem to understand how it works, thank you. I will write instructions for other users on how to change the domain if everything works out

Hey @ellativity !

Domain change succeeded! After changing the domain, all images in articles and avatars were no longer displayed, since they refer to the old domain. Could you help me with this?
