Noob question - Portainer deploys a docker container but doesnt save settings on host reboot. (alien.top)

I have setup an ubuntu 22.04 server on my proxmox host.

Installed docker and portainer on it.

Get to the portainer webgui.

Install / deploy a docker in this example - nginx proxy manager

Docker container installs and webgui is accessible.

Run through setup etc, add a proxy host confirm reverse proxy works.

If I reboot the host it loses all settings, how do I make it actually retain settings? Or what am I doing wrong? Is there some sort of setting I am just not seeing or or something?

This is my first time attempting to use portainer for anything.

Build it as a portainer stack, add a volume to it for the config, then start the stack.

Did you add a volume to your NGINX Proxy Manager? Unless you have persistent data, it's going to reset every time you reboot or update NPM.

Use a volume or bind mount.
