Installing a wordpress site

Preparing the domain

Set CNAME of @ / root to traefik.1streward.com

Bypass cache for admin

(http.cookie contains “wordpress_logged_in_”) or (starts_with(http.request.uri.path, “/wp-admin”)) or (http.request.uri.path eq “/wp-login.php”)

Cache everything else

Installing myPhPAdmin

Look for the Service UUID. It is the part after the @ in MySQL URL. This will be my PMA_Host for wordpress, and Host/ IP for phpMyadmin.

Create a new mysql user in phpMyadmin, generate password and grant specific database privilege to this user. Remember to username and password.

Install wordpress without database.

Docker Compose file should be edit to include the directory where backup files will be uploaded

    – ‘/data/coolify/backups/wordpress/[Folder Name]:/var/www/html/wp-content/updraft’

Remember to update WordPress and Site address to https after installation

Use the code below to force https on URL

If migration fails, check file permission for backup files. Most likely file permission isn’t www-data
change permission for files in wp-content/updraft. Mind the dot in the end of command

# 1. Set Ownership for everything here sudo chown -R root:www-data .

# 2. Set Permissions for everything here sudo chmod -R 775 .

Update .htaccess to increase max file size

Add the following in Compose file if wordpress fails to fetch data from plugins.
