Discourse (the software that runs these forums) should be updated regularly. if you’re an admin and have noticed that Discourse is out of date, you should schedule a maintenance window to update it. Updating can be done like so:
Step 1: SSH into the server

Step 2: Update Discourse
To update Discourse, the container must be rebuilt. Do that like so:
sudo bash
cd /var/discourse
git pull
./launcher rebuild app
