Hi @mdshabbir . What happens when you try accessing wordpress using the domain name?
Two things I’d suggest you look at:
- Do you have wordpress setup on the base webroot directory ie
/var/www/html? If so, double check that you configured the NS records correctly - If you have the wordpress folder in the webroot directory ie
/var/www/html/wordpress, you’ll need to setup a virtual host for your domain. You can see how to do that here: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-apache-virtual-hosts-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts
It would be more helpful if you can describe what happens when you try accessing WP using your domain name
