    I've installed node.bb using Cloudron. A plugin isn't working, and the plugin developer says that I need to udpate node.js.

    When I do a node -v in the console I get version 8.12, which is rather old indeed.

    Is there some way to upgrade the version of node.js inside that container?

    @Klaus Cloudron apps are deployed as read-only, so the code inside them cannot be changed. This is done for security and update purposes.

    But I can update the version to the latest LTS 12.16.1. Would that work?

    Note that NodeBB itself only has a requirement of node 8, so it's the plugin developer who has to fix the code 🙂

    @girish The latest NodeBB version 1.16 is no longer compatible with NodeJS version 10. Would it be possible to update the NodeJS version in Cloudron again?
