Describe your issue

I have succesfully installed jitsi on my rented VPS. It seems there is an option to integrate Etherpad into Jitsi, but I am unsure of how to.
First, I wonder if I instead of Etherpad can use Cryptpad (Which is kind of a fork of Etherpad)?

Via the app config panel: it doesn’t work?

I am trying now by installing etherpad as well. I already have an instance of cryptpad, but since cryptpad includes more than just a text editor, I wonder i fit will work? Anyway,will try with an instance of etherpad…

I have installed etherpad and on its own it works fine. I have added the link to it in jitsi app config panel. Still when I open a meeting in jitsi, I don’t se how to activate or open the etherpad.

Can you check this in /etc/jitsi/meet/your_jitsi_domain_tld-config.js around line 1272:

etherpad_base: 'https://your_etherpad_domain.tld/p/',

It was emtpy. Now I added the proper url and it works.

Well, then again, not exactly: Firefox (I use a fork called abrowser) does not allow embedded pages! This must some settings in my browser…?

Ok. In /etc/nginx/conf.d/your_etherpad_domain.tld.d/etherpad.conf add this header[1]

more_set_headers "Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors 'self' https://your_jitsi_domain.tld";

and reload nginx (sudo systemctl reload nginx)

You may have to log in to jitsi again.

  1. Each upgrade of etherpad will reset the nginx etherpad.conf to default so you will have to add this header again. ↩︎
