Hi, sorry, I have no idea what I’m doing… I have wordpress installed on ubuntu 18.04. Domain name works. I must’ve done something wrong though, because when I run certbot --apache in the terminal the only option is ‘www.root’. I’ve looked for a solution, like editing the apache config but I don’t know how to do that. 😩 Any ideas?

Hi @Kep0a,
Usually, certbos uses your Apache vhost files. Have you by any chance added the domain to your default vhost file?
Usually, you need to add a new file for your domain and add the desired settings there. If you are uncertain how to do so,I’ll recommend checking out the following DigitalOcean guide
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-apache-virtual-hosts-on-ubuntu-18-04
It will help you out with properly setting a separate vhost file.
