Error: Exceeded 20k asset limit. Total assets: 30891

Hello, when I attempted to deploy a Cloudflare page (which is a forked Discourse/GitHub repo) I get “Error: Exceeded 20k asset limit. Total assets: 30891”! This occurs 1 second (basically instantaneously) after the build process begins!

The full log is below

12:25:23.069	Initializing build environment. This may take up to a few minutes to complete
12:27:22.900	Success: Finished initializing build environment

If it helps, a screenshot is below containing my build information

Finally, the link to my repo is embedded below

Does anyone know how I can fix this? I’ll be waiting for a reply!

Delete 10,891 files from the repository to bring it within the limit. If you don’t need all of the 22k emojis you could delete public/images/emoji for a start.

But this is not going to work at all (unless you make a few changes )

Discourse on cloudflare pages

You can’t. Pages is for static content, which you happen to deploy in a complicated way . Discourse requires a proper environment with a Ruby runtime. https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/main/docs/INSTALL.md

Ok, I’ll do that (I can always add emojis back at a later date)!

delete public/images/emoji

I just did that and it successfully deployed! Now I just need to get it running on a server, then re-deploy it once I’ve done that!
