Good day,

I am wanting to add a Forum to one of my domains in Virtualmin, I would like to use NodeBB or the same one this forum uses but can’t see an install script.

I have used the inbuilt scripts to install before but not sure how to install anything that does not have a script.

Thanks

I forget to ask also, if I install NodeBB on another local Linux server can I have Virtualmin redirect to the internal server? for example my main domain is [domain.co.uk](http://domain.co.uk), and Virutalmin redirects [nodebb.domain.co.uk](http://nodebb.domain.co.uk) to another local servers IP address and keep the URL?

Thanks

We don’t support NodeBB via installable scripts. At least not yet. You should install it manually.

I think what you’re really looking for is creating a proxy pass. Have a look at **Server Configuration → Proxy Paths** page.
