Hello,

As long as your web server is configured correctly, you should be able to manage your WordPress via your WordPress admin dashboard as normal.

I would recommend following the steps here on how to install Wordpress:

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-wordpress-with-lamp-on-ubuntu-18-04

Or you could use the one click installation from the marketplace.

If you are still unable to install new themes, I would recommend sharing the exact error that you get here.

Hope that this helps! Regards, Bobby
