Thank you! 💕 That was quite something, got it done through sheer determination and a refusal to be defeated 😅 @laura@blog.laurahargreaves.com
@laura@laurahargreaves.com I’m super impressed, knowing how hard it is 💖 congrats again!
@_elena
Yep, about 500 times during the process I'm thinking to myself 'completely understand why Elena went to MagicPages over this' 😂😂

@laura@laurahargreaves.com @laura@blog.laurahargreaves.com and I struggled for a while to correctly set up a self-hosted Ghost site via Ghost-CLI earlier this year.
When I saw what Docker required I was like: ok, white flag, this is WAAAAAY above my capabilities.
So hats off to you for pulling this off!!! You have my MAJOR respect and admiration ☺️
@_elena yep, to get to v6 I had to migrate the database from mariadb and move from CLI-managed install to docker, fun times! 😂 I'm actually quite glad now because everything else I host is docker, so Ghost was the odd one out really 😊 Now they've brought out 6.8.1 I see, so I suppose that's my next job 😂@laura@blog.laurahargreaves.com
