Problem: Cannot access website anymore it gives me a 404 error
My domain is gameasy.ca
2 Issues:
- On wordpress, I manually changed the site URL in WordPress general settings page from HTTP to HTTPS resulting in me not being able to access my domain anymore
My issue is further explained in this link below https://wp-me.com/cant-access-wordpress-after-changing-site-url/
- I also played around with the forwarding rule on the Load Balancers page.
I added https with the certificate and then i deleted the https under Security section
If you could help me resolve this that would be amazing.
Thank you so much.

from HTTP to HTTPS
Are you seeing the certificate error issue? If so, please use DigitalOcean’s Let’s Encrypt integration to get yourself a certificate as that might be causing an issue.

It would be amazing to see the error message that you are seeing so that we can guide you better. Please take a screenshot and share here.
My guess is that if you follow the post—that you have shared&dmdash;you will be able to solve it, as WordPress sometimes requires manual configurations for network traffic mappings.
