How do I manage my WordPress LiteSpeed site?

Apps 119 views Markdown
  1. In the panel, open My servers and click your server.
  2. On the Overview tab, wait for the App row to say "WordPress LiteSpeed is ready". The page refreshes itself.
  3. Open the link in the Admin address row. The WordPress dashboard opens.
  4. Enter the details from the Login and Password rows. You can change your password on the Users page.

Cache

The LSCache plugin comes installed and active. Its settings are under LiteSpeed Cache in the dashboard's left menu. You do not need to change anything to begin with.

Your own domain

  1. Point your domain's A record to your server's IP address.
  2. Connect over SSH and get the certificate: certbot certonly --webroot -w /usr/local/lsws/wordpress -d yourdomain.com
  3. Point the keyFile and certFile paths in /usr/local/lsws/conf/httpd_config.conf to the new certificate and run systemctl restart lsws.
  4. On the Settings, General page, change the WordPress and site addresses to your domain.

Good to know

  • Only 80, 443 and 22 for SSH are open to the outside. The database cannot be reached from outside.
  • The database and server passwords are in the /usr/local/lsws/password file.

No server yet? Order a server with WordPress LiteSpeed installed: you choose the size and pay for what you choose.
