docs: add warnings about IP address and self-signed certificate limitations by tjaadvd · Pull Request #7693 · nextcloud/all-in-one
Many users attempt to run Nextcloud AIO on a local network using an IP address or a self-signed certificate, only to discover this is unsupported after going through the setup process. I personally tried this too, even though i (quickly) read the README and Local-instance pages.
This PR makes the limitation more visible upfront so others won't make the same mistake.
Changes
local-instance.md: Added a[!WARNING]callout at the top of the page clearly stating that AIO requires a real domain name and a valid TLS certificate, and that IP addresses and self-signed certificates are not supported.readme.md: Added a[!WARNING]callout in the "How to use this?" section directing local-only users tolocal-instance.mdbefore proceeding with setup.
Motivation
The existing documentation mentions these limitations, but only in passing within a longer paragraph. Users who skim the docs (or jump straight to the setup steps) miss this entirely. The new callouts ensure the constraint is visible before any setup steps are taken.
