Hello, @pjarrow91

The process is not that complicated. Let me try to explain what you’ll need to do.

You need to make sure that the virtual host associated with the website is updated to match the domain name, e.g make sure that the server_name block in the nginx configuration file is set to the domain name.

Also you can check that the site and home_url are set to the domain name as well. You can do this by pasting this code in your wp-config.php file:

define('WP_HOME','https://yourdomain.com');
define('WP_SITEURL','https://yourdomain.com');

Also you need to adjust the DNS as well. You need to point your A record to the IP address of your server. Keep in mind that the DNS changes might take up to 24 hours due to ISP cache and standard propagation time.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks for getting back to me. It looks like I’d actually solved most of it, but chrome was being weird and lying to me even after a full refresh of the cache and everything.

Restarted the computer and the site is now working at domain dot com reliably.

My next step is to get myself set up for https, as some light e-commerce is going to be going in in the coming months. Also, I hate seeing that gray “Unsecured connection”.
