Domain not showing wordpress website

Posted October 5, 2014

Hi, I set the nameservers of my domain to DO and it’s showing up under DNS of the control panel as pointing to the droplet IP.

I was able to login to the WP admin using the direct IP, I then set the sit url to my domain but when going to the address the website doesn’t show up. I can no longer gain access to the WP admin because it keeps trying to load from my domain.

So if I go to 178.62.38.112/wp-login I can enter my user/pass but it then loads mydomain.com and I left dead in the water.

Hope I’m making sense.

hope you can help. Thanks.

OK that was it. The cname wasn’t set. All is working now.

Thank for the help.

yeah sorry. It’s markboadey.com

I did notice that ID hadn’t set the cname to www @ I’ve fixed this but it might be a while before it takes affect.
