Hello!
I recently created a snapshot of my droplet, since i wanted two versions of my website on two different domains.
However, when i go into my new droplets IP, and do / admin, i still end up on my original 46.101.144.192 admin panel, and cannot do changes directly in my copied droplet.
In other words, why is my ‘new’ droplet from a snapshot redirecting me to my 'old’ droplet whenever i try to login as admin to it?
That’s not possible. Are you sure you’re using the correct IP? How are you verifying that the changes are being done?
I believe the answer here is that my wordpress configuration redirects to a custom URL, which means that this one will as well whenever i try to go to /admin, since they share those properties.
Any suggestion on how to fix that?
The redirecting issue is fixed. However, i can not login to the new droplet using the same credentials as the original site. Any tips on how to add an admin to my wordpress on my new droplet?
Hi,
If you restored a snapshot, the data is going to be the same on that snapshot as when you took it on the original droplet. So the admin/username password is the same. If you do not remember the original password, I would use wp-cli as explained here
Hello Zimpstar, I am having the same redirection issue, can you tell me how you solved it ?
I changed the url in wp-config, and function via ftp but still nothing changes, i can’t login to wp admin and phpmyadmin since i am redirected to the old one.
