Droplet WordPress One-Click & Domain.com IP Address vs Server IP Address

Posted on March 4, 2020

Hello, for creating a WordPress site via One-Click WordPress create;

  • IP Address of Ubuntu Server is given
  • IP Address of domainx.com (A Record) is different and already existent on the Registrar service DNS Zone console.

How newly created WordPress platform load, with Ubuntu Server IP Address, if I did input domain name, domainx.com ?

Question:

Or, do I need change the domain’s IP Address (A record) to match what Digital Ocean supply as IP Address for the Ubuntu Server where Wordpress one-click is built on ?

Or, I can have both different IP Addresses; IP Address for Ubuntu Server of WordPress installation; and domain’s IP Address which is an A Record set in a different provider DNS Zone ?

Thanx
