We recommend installing BigBlueButton with a 'clean' and dedicated Ubuntu 20.04 64-bit server with no prior software installed. If you want to upgrade from an earlier version of BigBlueButton like 2.4, we recommend setting up a clean server for BigBlueButton 2.6 on Ubuntu 20.04 and, after setup, [migrate over your existing recordings](/administration/customize#transfer-published-recordings-from-another-server). We support upgrading a BigBlueButton 2.5 server to 2.6.

A 'clean' server does not have any previous web servers installed (such as apache) or web applications (such as plesk or webadmin) that are [binding to port 80/443](/support/faq#we-recommend-running-bigbluebutton-on-port-80443). By 'dedicated' we mean that this server won't be used for anything else besides BigBlueButton (and possibly BigBlueButton-related applications such as [Greenlight](/greenlight/install)).

Greenlight is built around the concept of rooms. A room, to the user, is a BigBlueButton session that they "own". A user can add custom room settings, start/stop their room, invite others to their room using a short easily communicable URL, track sessions, and more.
|
||||

||||

To invite someone to join your room, all you have to do is give them the invite URL on the room page. Once they follow the URL, they'll be presented with an invitation to join your room. If the user doesn't have a Greenlight account, they'll be prompted to enter a name to join the room. Otherwise, Greenlight will use their account name.

To create a new room, you simply click the "Create a Room" block from your list of rooms. You can configure room specific settings to customize each room.

**IMPORTANT NOTE:** While customizing Greenlight v3 can be a great way to tailor the platform to your organization's specific needs, there are also some potential dangers to making custom changes. It's important to be aware of these risks before making any customizations to the platform.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Security risks: Custom changes to the platform may inadvertently introduce security vulnerabilities.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Compatibility issues: Custom changes may not always be fully compatible with future updates to the platform. This could cause conflicts and errors that could affect the platform's functionality and stability.

3. Support limitations: Making custom changes to the platform may limit the support you can receive from the platform's developers.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Maintenance overhead: Custom changes require ongoing maintenance and upkeep.

|
||||
### Text Changes
|
||||
|
||||
Greenlight v3 provides the ability to customize all of the strings used in the platform's user interface. This means that you can change any text string, including labels, messages, and notifications, to match your organization's preferred terminology or language.
|
||||
|
||||
First, find the file that contains the string you would like to change. Language files can be found in 2 places:
|
||||
1. [app/assets/locales](https://github.com/bigbluebutton/greenlight/tree/v3/app/assets/locales)
|
||||
2. [config/locales](https://github.com/bigbluebutton/greenlight/tree/v3/config/locales)
|
||||
|
||||
For this example, we will be using `en.json` from `app/assets/locales/`, but you can make the changes to any file.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you have located the file containing the string you want to modify, copy it into your greenlight-v3 directory and edit it as needed.
|
||||
|
||||
Then, edit the docker compose file so that your new file is loaded into the container. To do that, add a line in the `volumes` section.
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
volumes:
|
||||
- ./data/greenlight-v3/storage:/usr/src/app/storage
|
||||
- ./en.json:/usr/app/app/assets/locales/en.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
OR
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
volumes:
|
||||
- ./data/greenlight-v3/storage:/usr/src/app/storage
|
||||
- ./en.json:/usr/app/config/locales/en.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, restart Greenlight v3 and your new changes should be displayed in Greenlight.
|
||||
|
||||
### Code Changes
|
||||
|
||||
Customizing the code in Greenlight v3 can provide even greater flexibility and control over the platform's behavior. However, modifying the code can also be complex, and it carries a greater risk of introducing errors or compatibility issues.
|
||||
|
||||
If you decide to customize the code, it's important to have a solid understanding of Ruby on Rails and React, the frameworks used to build Greenlight v3. You should also be familiar with the structure of the Greenlight v3 codebase and its dependencies.
|
||||
|
||||
First, find the file that you would like to change by searching through the [Greenlight repository](https://github.com/bigbluebutton/greenlight/tree/v3).
|
||||
|
||||
Once you have located the file that you want to modify, copy it into your greenlight-v3 directory and edit it as needed.
|
||||
|
||||
For this example, we will be using `rooms_controller.rb` from `app/controllers/api/v1/`, but you can make the changes to any file.
|
||||
|
||||
Then, edit the docker compose file so that your new file is loaded into the container. To do that, add a line in the `volumes` section.
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
volumes:
|
||||
- ./data/greenlight-v3/storage:/usr/src/app/storage
|
||||
- ./rooms_controller.rb:/usr/app/pp/controllers/api/v1/rooms_controller.rb
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, restart Greenlight v3 and your new changes should be displayed in Greenlight.

## OpenID Connect vs Keycloak
|
||||
|
||||
Greenlight v3 offers external authentication support through OpenID Connect. If you have an authentication server that supports this protocol, you can easily connect it to Greenlight v3 using environment variables. For more information, refer to the [OpenID Connect Setup](/greenlight/v3/install#openid-connect-setup) section.
|
||||
|
||||
If you do not have an authentication server, Keycloak is a recommended solution. It supports multiple authentication methods, including Google, Microsoft, SAML, and others. For a complete list of supported identity providers, see [Keycloak Identity Providers](https://www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/server_admin/#_General-idp-config).
|
||||
|
||||
## Installing Keycloak
|
||||
|
||||
If you used the **BigBlueButton Install Script** without passing the `-k` option, you can simply re-run the install script using the same options as before, this time passing `-k` to install Keycloak on your server.
|
||||
|
||||
If you used the **Greenlight Install Script** without passing the `-k` option, you can simply re-run the install script using the same options as before, this time passing `-k` to install Keycloak on your server.
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuring Keycloak
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Once you've completed the Keycloak installation, you'll need to configure Keycloak to suit your needs. This guide will provide you with an example of how to connect to Google Authentication, but you can adapt these steps to suit your deployment.
|
||||
|
||||
**IMPORTANT NOTE:** This is a sample configuration meant to be used for testing. For a full production setup, please refer to [Keycloak's documentation](https://www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/server_admin/index.html).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Start by accessing the administrator panel by `https://<GREENLIGHT_HOSTNAME>/keycloak`
|
||||
|
||||
Select `Administration Console` and sign in using the credentials that were printed during the Keycloak Installation process.
|
||||
|
||||
Start by creating a new realm for Greenlight by hovering over the `Master` realm on the top left corner, and clicking on `Create Realm`.
|
||||
|
||||
Set the name of the realm to `greenlight` and click create.
|
||||
|
||||
![Add Realm](/img/greenlight/v3/keycloak/add-realm.png)
|
||||
|
||||
Next, create a new client by clicking the `Clients` tab on the left side and then clicking `Create Client`. Set the `Client type` to `OpenID Connect` and the `Client ID` to `greenlight`. Once you've confirmed the values are correct, click `Next`
|
||||
|
||||
![Create Clients](/img/greenlight/v3/keycloak/create-client-2.png)
|
||||
|
||||
Set `Client authentication` to `ON` and and `Valid Redirect URIs` to `https://<GREENLIGHT_URL>/*`. Make sure to click `Save` once you have set the values.
|
||||
|
||||
![Valid Redirect](/img/greenlight/v3/keycloak/client-authentication.png)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
![Valid Redirect](/img/greenlight/v3/keycloak/valid-redirect.png)
|
||||
|
||||
While staying in the `Clients` tab, click on the `Credentials` tab near the top of the page and store the `Client secret` variable on the side (this will be the `OPENID_CONNECT_CLIENT_SECRET` later in the `.env`).
|
||||
|
||||
![Client Creds](/img/greenlight/v3/keycloak/client-credentials.png)
|
||||
|
||||
To add a Identity Provider, click on `Identity Providers` on the left hand side and choose the provider that you would like (we'll be going with Google for this installation).
|
||||
|
||||
![Idp](/img/greenlight/v3/keycloak/idp.png)
|
||||
|
||||
For Google, follow this guide to obtain the credentials: [Google OAuth Credentials](https://developers.google.com/workspace/guides/create-credentials#oauth-client-id).
|
||||
|
||||
Feel free to use different providers and refer to their documentations on how to create and obtain OpenID credentials.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you've obtained your Google credentials, fill in the `Client ID` and `Client Secret` fields and click `Save`.
|
||||
|
||||
![Google Creds](/img/greenlight/v3/keycloak/google-creds.png)
|
||||
|
||||
Next, we need to make Google our default authentication method to ensure a seamless login process for our users. Click on `Authentication` in the left side menu.
|
||||
|
||||
Click on `browser` and then find the `Identity Provider Redirector` row and click on the settings cog on the far right
|
||||
|
||||
![Auth Actions](/img/greenlight/v3/keycloak/actions.png).
|
||||
|
||||
![Auth Actions](/img/greenlight/v3/keycloak/actions-2.png).
|
||||
|
||||
Set the `Alias` to `Google` and the `Default Identity Provider` to `google` (or whatever identity provider you chose). Once you're done, click `Save`
|
||||
|
||||
![Auth Actions](/img/greenlight/v3/keycloak/actions-3.png).
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, we need to connect Greenlight to Keycloak using the OpenID Connect `.env` variables.
|
||||
|
||||
Go back to `Realm Settings` in the left side menu and click on `OpenID Endpoint Configuration`
|
||||
|
||||
![Realm Creds](/img/greenlight/v3/keycloak/realm-creds.png)
|
||||
|
||||
Copy the url that appears after `issuer`
|
||||
|
||||
![Issuer](/img/greenlight/v3/keycloak/issuer.png)
|
||||
|
||||
Now edit your `.env` file and uncomment the following block (remove the `#` before each `OPENID` variable):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
### EXTERNAL AUTHENTICATION METHODS
|
||||
#
|
||||
#OPENID_CONNECT_CLIENT_ID=
|
||||
#OPENID_CONNECT_CLIENT_SECRET=
|
||||
#OPENID_CONNECT_ISSUER=
|
||||
#OPENID_CONNECT_REDIRECT=
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Lastly, fill in the credentials as follows:
|
||||
- `<YOUR_SECRET>` is a placeholder for your OpenID client secret that you stored during the first few steps.
|
||||
- `<ISSUER_URL>` is a placeholder for your Keycloak issuer realm URL (that you just copied).
|
||||
- `<YOUR_GREENLIGHT_DOMAIN>` is a placeholder for your Greenlight hostname
|
||||
|
||||
Once you're done, it should look something like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
### EXTERNAL AUTHENTICATION METHODS
|
||||
#
|
||||
OPENID_CONNECT_CLIENT_ID=greenlight
|
||||
OPENID_CONNECT_CLIENT_SECRET=<YOUR_SECRET>
|
||||
OPENID_CONNECT_ISSUER=<ISSUER_URL>
|
||||
OPENID_CONNECT_REDIRECT=https://<YOUR_GREENLIGHT_DOMAIN>/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
All that's left to do is restart Greenlight v3 and it should be connected to Keycloak
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo docker-compose down && sudo docker-compose up -d
|
||||
```

## Overview
|
||||
Greenlight is an open-source, LGPL-3.0 licensed web application that allows organizations to quickly set up a complete web conferencing platform using their existing BigBlueButton server. It is user-friendly for both regular and advanced users.
|
||||
|
||||
Greenlight v3, the latest version, is constructed with the cutting-edge versions of Ruby on Rails and React - a robust technology stack adopted by millions of projects and trusted by major corporations worldwide.
|
||||
|
||||
Greenlight v3 is equipped with local authentication by default. This means that authentication is managed internally within the platform and does not require any external servers or services. For those who need additional authentication options, Greenlight v3 can be configured to connect to external authentication servers through OpenID Connect. For more information see [External Authentication](/greenlight/v3/external-authentication).
|
||||
|
||||
There are 2 ways to install Greenlight v3:
|
||||
1. Installing alongside a BigBlueButton Server
|
||||
2. Installing on a Standalone Server
|
||||
|
||||
## Installing alongside a BigBlueButton Server
|
||||
### bbb-install Script
|
||||
If your server already contains a BigBlueButton server, or you would like to install a new BigBlueButton server along with Greenlight, please refer to [bbb-install script](https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bbb-install).
|
||||
|
||||
To install Greenlight, simply run the `bbb-install` command with your chosen configurations, while ensuring that you include `-g` option to include Greenlight.
|
||||
|
||||
### Creating an Admin Account
|
||||
Once installation is complete, you will need to create an Administrator account to access the administrator panel.
|
||||
|
||||
You can do that by running the following command:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker exec -it greenlight-v3 bundle exec rake admin:create['name','email','password']
|
||||
```
|
||||
You can also run it without any arguments to create the default admin account, which you can then either change the password to, or promote your own account to Administrator and then delete the default account.
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker exec -it greenlight-v3 bundle exec rake admin:create
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Installing on a Standalone Server
|
||||
### Greenlight Install Script
|
||||
If you're installing Greenlight on a standalone server (ie a server that doesn't include BigBlueButton), we've created an install script to simplify the steps required to get Greenlight up and running.
|
||||
|
||||
First, create the Greenlight directory for its configuration to live in.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
mkdir ~/greenlight && cd ~/greenlight
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The Greenlight Install Script provides you with a variety of options to suit whatever needs you have. Before running the install script, you must choose which options you would like. Here are the current supported options:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
-s <hostname> Configure server with <hostname> (Required)
|
||||
|
||||
-b <hostname>:<secret> The BigBlueButton server credentials (bbb-conf --secret) (Required)
|
||||
|
||||
-k Install Keycloak - needed for external authentication (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
-d Skip SSL certificates generation (Required, if -e is omitted).
|
||||
* Certificate files(fullchain.pem, privkey.pem) to be used must be placed in /local/certs/
|
||||
* Cannot be used when -e is used.
|
||||
|
||||
-e <email> Email for Let's Encrypt certbot (Required, if -d is omitted)
|
||||
* Cannot be used when -d is used.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Sample Configurations
|
||||
|
||||
- Sample options to setup a Greenlight 3.x server with a publicly signed SSL certificate for a FQDN of www.example.com and an email
|
||||
of info@example.com that uses a BigBlueButton server at bbb.example.com with secret SECRET:
|
||||
|
||||
`-s www.example.com -e info@example.com -b bbb.example.com:SECRET`
|
||||
|
||||
- Sample options to setup a Greenlight 3.x server with pre-owned SSL certificates for a FQDN of www.example.com that uses a BigBlueButton server at bbb.example.com with secret SECRET:
|
||||
|
||||
`-s www.example.com -b bbb.example.com:SECRET -d`
|
||||
|
||||
### Running the Script
|
||||
|
||||
To run the script, simply run the command below, replacing `[OPTIONS]`, with the values from above.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bigbluebutton/greenlight/master/gl-install.sh | bash -s -- [OPTIONS]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
After the script finishes running, a success message will appear in the console, confirming that Greenlight v3 is now accessible at the URL specified during installation.
|
||||
|
||||
### Creating an Admin Account
|
||||
Once installation is complete, you will need to create an Administrator account to access the administrator panel.
|
||||
|
||||
You can do that by running the following command:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker exec -it greenlight-v3 bundle exec rake admin:create['name','email','password']
|
||||
```
|
||||
You can also run it without any arguments to create the default admin account, which you can then either change the password to, or promote your own account to Administrator and then delete the default account.
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker exec -it greenlight-v3 bundle exec rake admin:create
|
||||
```
|
||||

## Migration
|
||||
|
||||
Greenlight v3 is a completely new software application with an updated design and architecture.
|
||||
A migration system has been created to move resources from your Greenlight v2 instance to v3.
|
||||
|
||||
**The migration system requires both Greenlight v2 and Greenlight v3 and to be deployed, running and accessible through a network.**
|
||||
|
||||
The process intends to migrate the following resources:
|
||||
- Users
|
||||
- Roles & Role Permissions
|
||||
- Rooms & Rooms Settings
|
||||
- Shared Accesses
|
||||
- Rooms Configuration
|
||||
- Site Settings
|
||||
|
||||
## How It Works
|
||||
|
||||
The migration system consists of multiples **rake tasks** and **a restful API**:
|
||||
|
||||
- **The rake tasks are to be executed from the Greenlight v2 deployment.**
|
||||
- The rake tasks will send the data to the deployed Greenlight v3 server.
|
||||
- There are four rake tasks: roles, users, rooms and settings. Maintaining this order during the migration is necessary.
|
||||
|
||||
- **The migration endpoints are available as long as the Greenlight v3 server is running.**
|
||||
- The restful API will receive and validate the migrated resources.
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
Before the migration process, make sure that the Greenlight v3 server is running and accessible through your network.
|
||||
|
||||
### Configuring the Environment
|
||||
|
||||
In Greenlight v2 **.env** file, add the following variables:
|
||||
- **V3_ENDPOINT**, which points to your Greenlight v3 URL.
|
||||
- **V3_SECRET_KEY_BASE**, a copy from Greenlight v3 SECRET_KEY_BASE. It is needed for the encryption process.
|
||||
|
||||
![env_migration_endpoints.png](/img/greenlight/v3/migration/env_migration_endpoints.png)
|
||||
|
||||
### The rake migration task file
|
||||
|
||||
**If your Greenlight v2 deployment is up to date with the official latest release, you can skip to [Migration Steps](#migration-steps).**
|
||||
|
||||
Else, you will need to to load the rake migration task file into your directory.
|
||||
|
||||
To do so, follow the steps below:
|
||||
|
||||
1) Navigate to your Greenlight v2 directory
|
||||
|
||||
2) Download the migration rake tasks with the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
wget -P lib/tasks/migrations https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bigbluebutton/greenlight/master/lib/tasks/migrations/migrations.rake
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The file **migrations.rake** should now be present in your **/lib/tasks/migrations** directory.
|
||||
|
||||
**To include our changes directly in the Docker container:**
|
||||
|
||||
3) Edit the volumes partition in the **docker-compose.yaml** to add the new migration file as follow:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
services:
|
||||
app:
|
||||
volumes:
|
||||
- ./log:/usr/src/app/log
|
||||
- ./storage:/usr/src/app/storage
|
||||
- ./lib/tasks/migrations:/usr/src/app/lib/tasks/migrations
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
4) Save the changes and restart Greenlight v2 by running:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo docker-compose down && sudo docker-compose up -d
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Migration Steps
|
||||
|
||||
**It is required to run the migrations in the following order: roles, users, rooms, settings.**
|
||||
|
||||
The logs will indicate the status of the migrated resources in real-time, in the console.
|
||||
|
||||
Upon the successful migration of a resource, a green success message will be displayed in the console.

||||
|
||||
![success_migration.png](/img/greenlight/v3/migration/success_migration.png)
|
||||
|
||||
In case of an error, a red error message will be displayed in the console and should provide some details concerning the error.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
However, a failed migration resource should not hinder the whole migration process - the process should not have failed for all the resources.
|
||||
|
||||
**If you have an error, try re-running the migration task to resolve any failed resources migration.**
|
||||
|
||||
**If re-running the migration does not solve the issue, the error message should give you a clue of what went wrong.**
|
||||
|
||||
### Roles Migration
|
||||
|
||||
The custom Roles and the corresponding Role Permissions will be migrated.
|
||||
|
||||
Please note that:
|
||||
- The default Roles (user, moderator, guest) will not be migrated as they are already present in Greenlight v3.
|
||||
- The role color will not be migrated as this feature is not implemented in v3.
|
||||
|
||||
**To migrate the Roles & the Role Permissions, run the following command:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo docker exec -it greenlight-v2 bundle exec rake migrations:roles
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**If you have an error, try re-running the migration task to resolve any failed resources migration.**
|
||||
**Also, make sure that the Greenlight v3 server is running and accessible through your network.**
|
||||
|
||||
### Users Migration
|
||||
The Users will be migrated with their corresponding role.
|
||||
|
||||
Important notes:
|
||||
- **Once the Users migration is completed, the migrated users will be prompted to reset their password via an automated email. The accounts passwords can't be migrated from Greenlight v2.**
|
||||
- Pending, denied and deleted users will not be migrated to Greenlight v3.
|
||||
- Both local and external users will be migrated.
|
||||
|
||||
**To migrate all of your v2 users to v3, run the following command:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo docker exec -it greenlight-v2 bundle exec rake migrations:users
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**To migrate only a portion of the users starting from *FIRST_USER_ID* to *LAST_USER_ID*, run this command instead:**
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo docker exec -it greenlight-v2 bundle exec rake migrations:users[**FIRST_USER_ID, LAST_USER_ID**]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
*Administrators can use the last command to migrate resources in parallel, the same migration task can be run in separate processes each migrating a portion of the resources class simultaneously.*
|
||||
|
||||
**If you have an error, try re-running the migration task to resolve any failed resources migration.**
|
||||
**Also, make sure that the Roles migration has been successful.**
|
||||
|
||||
### Rooms Migration
|
||||
The Rooms will be migrated with their corresponding Room Settings. Also, the Shared Accesses will be migrated.
|
||||
|
||||
Important notes:
|
||||
|
||||
- Only the Rooms of the active users will be migrated
|
||||
- The migrated rooms will be assigned to their respective migrated users on v3
|
||||
- The presentations will not be migrated - the presentations will need to be re-uploaded to v3 by the room owner or shared access user.
|
||||
|
||||
**To migrate the rooms, run the following command:**
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo docker exec -it greenlight-v2 bundle exec rake migrations:rooms
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**To migrate only a portion of users starting from **FIRST_ROOM_ID** to **LAST_ROOM_ID**, run this command instead**:**
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo docker exec -it greenlight-v2 bundle exec rake migrations:rooms[**FIRST_ROOM_ID, LAST_ROOM_ID**]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
*Note: The partitioning is based on resources id value and not there position in the database, so calling **rake migrations:rooms[1, 100]** will not migrate the first 100 active users rooms but rather active users rooms having an id of 1 to 100 if existed.*
|
||||
|
||||
*Administrators can use the last command to migrate resources in parallel, the same migration task can be run in separate processes each migrating a portion of the resources class simultaneously.*
|
||||
|
||||
**If you have an error, try re-running the migration task to resolve any failed resources migration.**
|
||||
**Also, make sure that the Users migration has been successful.**
|
||||
|
||||
### Settings Migration
|
||||
The Site Settings and the Rooms Configuration will be migrated.
|
||||
|
||||
- The *Site Settings* are customisable settings related to the Greenlight application, such as the Brand colors, the Brand image, the Registration method, the Terms & Conditions.
|
||||
|
||||
- The *Rooms Configuration* are the settings that are related to the default configuration of all the rooms, such as *Allow Room to be Recorded*, *Allow any User to Start a Meeting*, *Access Codes*.
|
||||
|
||||
Please note that:
|
||||
- The Brand image will not be migrated - it will have to be re-uploaded to Greenlight v3 by the administrator.
|
||||
- The administrator will need to reassign the Room Limit as a Role Permission (on a per role basis) instead of as a global Site Setting.
|
||||
|
||||
**To migrate the settings, run the following command:**
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo docker exec -it greenlight-v2 bundle exec rake migrations:settings
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**If you have an error, try re-running the migration task to resolve any failed resources migration.**
