Important points to read before installing
- Pixelfed require a dedicated root domain, eg. pixelfed.domain.tld
Administrator
After being first registered, you need to execute the folloing command to promote first registered as admin
Run:
$ sudo php7.4 /var/www/pixelfed/artisan user:admin 1
and respond yes to the question Add admin privileges to this user?.
Allow/Close registrations
Registrations are open by default.
To change that setting, edit /var/www/pixelfed/.env and set OPEN_REGISTRATION=false instead of true.
Then run php7.4 artisan config:cache to reload the settings.
Change max upload limit
To change max upload limit (default : 50MB), edit the Pixelfed php-fpm.conf file and find the line Common values to change to increase file upload limit
And adjust those values:
php_admin_value[post_max_size] = 50M
php_admin_value[upload_max_filesize] = 50M
Disable search engine indexing
If you don't want your Pixelfed instance to be indexed in search engine (and so on), edit /var/www/pixelfed/public/robots.txt like this:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /
Note: search engines will see that file and may or may not respect its content.
Since 0.10.10, by default /discover/places/, /stories/ and /i/ are present in that file.
