Question 2

Setting up, and installing Wordpress

Accepted Answer

Wordpress is the most popular CMS on the internet, and today I wanted to show you how to Install Wordpress on NodeHost in a few steps and some info you will need along the way.

Launch a "container"

The first and big step is to launch a new container on NodeHost.

When you click on Create Container you will get a screen asking fo the type, just pick the default "PHP Running On NGINX/APACHE" (at the time of writing there is only one option). Then pick a location and a size for your site, the size and resources of your site can be changed later, no need to worry, pick the normal "$0.06 / 24hr" option as a default if you want. You should now see this, click create container, it will take a few seconds.

Setup your domain

Now just open your new container and go to the domains section in the side menu.

You will see 2 options, one is to set the domain you already own, if you don't own one you will need to buy one from a provider like Dynadot. Unless this is a testing site always set the domain you will be using and don't use the free myws.ca domain option as your first domain on the container (it cant be changed after).

Question 5

Make Let's Encrypt work when using Cloudflare (ACME Challenge)

Accepted Answer

So first things first Let's Encrypt and Cloudflare are amazing, but just enabling the Cloudflare cloud and Let's Encrypt makes it impossible to auto renew domains. This rule change will allow you to auto renew with Let's Encrypt and make everyone happy.

This is because Let's Encrypt will do a ACME challenge on your domain on each renewal attempt, and with the default Cloudflare settings it will fail.

The simple solution is to enable a simple page rule on Cloudflare. This is a simple rule to disable SSL force on the ACME requests.

Now here is a copy of the rule, and just disable SSL.

*yourdomain.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/*

Question 6

Set up a Mail Client to connect to website

Accepted Answer

Here is the server information needed for setting up your domain email with Thunderbird, Apple Mail, Outlook or Outlook Express. You can also login at webmail.nodehost.ca.

When setting up your email you will need to use full e-mail address as username. You just need to use the hostname of the sever you are on, we are using N12 in our example.

IMAP hostname: n12.myws.ca IMAP port: 143 IMAP security: STARTTLS IMAP username: Your full email address IMAP password: The password you set

SMTP hostname: n12.myws.ca SMTP port: 587 SMTP security: STARTTLS SMTP username: Your full email address SMTP password: The password you set

For older POP3 (instead of IMAP)

|| We don't recommend using POP3 as it results in mail being removed from the mail server.

POP3 hostname: n12.myws.ca POP3 port: 110 POP3 username: Your full email address POP3 password: The password you set
