Failed to configure Wordpress to listen port 443

Hi all,

I need your help and recommendation how to setup Wordpress (website) and wordpress admin page to listen 443.

Thanks in advance

Hi mknazri,

For the easiest and most hassle free Wordpress installation you can use EasyEngine’s following command for a basic Wordress Site setup:

sudo ee site create example.com --wp

You can find EasyEngine documentation at https://easyengine.io/docs/

To setup Wordpress admin page to listen 443 you can go through our tutorials at https://easyengine.io/wordpress-nginx/tutorials/ssl/

Then you must configure your DNS and stand by propagation.

Then you run ee site update example.com --le in order to add a Let‘s Encrypt certificate for free.

Then you run:

cd /var/www/domain.com/htdocs/
wp option set home https://domain.com
wp option set siteurl https://domain.com

Then you finish setting up your WP as usual.
