How do I log in to my WordPress server?
- In the panel, open My servers and click your server.
- On the Overview tab, check the App row. "WordPress is ready" means the install has finished. While it runs, you see progress such as "step 2 of 4" and the page refreshes itself.
- Open the link in the Admin address row.
- Enter the details from the Login and Password rows. The login is
yonetici, which is Turkish for "admin".
The rows in your panel
| Row | What it is for |
|---|---|
| Site address | Your site's public address |
| Admin address | The WordPress admin screen |
| Login and Password | Your WordPress login |
Further down the page, the Username row and the Password row below it are for SSH. Don't use them to log in to WordPress.
What the install sets up
- The interface starts in Turkish, the time zone is Istanbul and the site is named "Sitem". You can change all of these under Settings, including the site language.
- The site opens over HTTPS on a free
sslip.ioaddress based on your IP, so you don't need a domain. If a certificate can't be issued, the site opens overhttp://on your IP address instead. - You can upload files of up to 64 MB at a time.
- Only ports 80, 443 and 22 (for SSH) are open to the outside.
After your first login
- Change your password under Users > Profile. The panel keeps showing the original password, so save the new one yourself.
- Enter your own email address under Settings > General. The install uses a placeholder address.
- If your site needs to send email, install an SMTP plugin. The install doesn't set up email sending.
- To use your own domain, see this article.
