Hi
I have a rails app on heroku at www.mydomain.com
Ive created a droplet here on DO with the one click wordpresss 13.10 installer.
When prompted for a hostname I chose blog.mydomain.com
What else do I need to do? Currently I can’t even access the wordpress install using my ip address.
How do i get blog.mydomain.com to point to the droplets ip address?
