hi

the link generated has the word "localhost" instead of the server ip, or domain.
http://localhost/secret/7m9sl2grvldolaA49slg57bdtsx90vno4

Have you tried to configure the site host and domain option?

I have this same issue. I have configured both the site host and domain options with
:site:
:host: onetime.ourdomain.com
:domain: ourdomain.com
:ssl: false

I set the host and domain to be the same value.
For Example

:host: onetime.ourdomain.com
:domain: onetime.ourdomain.com

I had to make sure these values were set in the config before I performed the docker-compose up command.

If I left these values as localhost and performed the docker-compose up then no matter what I changed the configuration to be later it would always just stay as localhost. I did this the first time I set it up.

I then had to completely remove the docker container and perform a build or rebuild of the container for it to use the configured host values.
I can't remember the exact command but it think it was the docker-compose down.
Then used some of the docker prune commands to make sure they were deleted.
Then used something like docker-compose build --no-cache to force a new build.
But it was a while ago and I can't remember the exact commands.

The next time I set up one time secret I just made sure I had the config file correct before I ran the docker-compose up command.
