Since you are all extremely knowledgeable about this stuff and super generous with me with your help (THANK YOU), I'd like to ask you a question that is a bit embarrassing (in a "I'm a newbie please excuse my cluelessness" sort of way).
So having tackled the giant cache hurdle, now I find myself facing an email authentication problem (of course).
I definitely did set up DNS TXT records for Mailgun... but apparently I need to add some code to my Ghost config file to avoid having a warning on my email signups.
Self-hosted Ghost users say the code should look like this:
"mail": {
"from": "'Ghost Server' ghost@example.com",
"transport": "SMTP",
"options": {
"service": "Mailgun",
"host": "smtp.eu.mailgun.org",
"port": 465,
"secureConnection": true,
"auth": {
"user": "ghost@example.com",
"pass": "PASSWORD"
}
}
},
Now, for the auth user and pass I need to enter the email address and password for my Mailgun account, right? I'm a little confused.
And totally shameless now as you can tell.
And excuse me while I run hide in a corner (for having asked a silly question). I'm TRULY a newbie as you can tell.
P.S.: thank you for putting up with me 😅
