How to delete my ip address from my listed domain

Hello,

I am trying to Certify my website through Let’s Entrypt when I noticed that my ip address is listed as a domain in my console.

I am on the step where it is asking “Which names would you like to activate HTTPS for?”. Instead of the two domain that should be listed (www.vcgtransforms.com / vcgtransforms.com) there is the ip address www.137.184.70.164 which is causing a re-direct and all the errors that follow.

I am wondering how to get rid of that ip address so my site does not re-direct from www.vcgtransforms.com to www.137.184.70.164

Hi there,

In order to do that you need to change your WordPress site and home URLs.

One way to do that is to add the following in your wp-config.php file:

define( 'WP_HOME', 'http://yoursiteurl.com' );
define( 'WP_SITEURL', 'http://yoursiteurl.com' );

Best,

Bobby
