Asked by jplafata
Hey all,
I’m trying to create a new droplet using the DO 1-click WordPress/Ubuntu 20.04 droplet from the Marketplace. I have tried around 7 times, closely following the instruction and got the same end results:
- Configured and created the new droplet
- Logged in as root user via ssh (I’ve tried from both the online DO console and Putty) and completed the interactive script successfully
- I’m then instructed to visit the site in a browser to complete the WordPress installation, but when I do this, I’m greeted with a site that has no styling and I’m unable to log into WordPress using the WordPress user I setup while running the install script via ssh (receive a 405 error)
Here is an example of what I’m seeing
Has anyone else experienced this? I’m unsure of how to proceed with this.

Hi @jplafata,
I just created a new WordPress droplet and followed it through all the way, I can confirm everything worked properly for me and my website got all the CSS and everything as it’s supposed to.
Can you please confirm what options are you selecting? Additionally, I saw you are visiting the HTTP part of your page. Can I suggest you to install a Let’s Encrypt certificate and redirect it to https.
Additionally, not sure if you have provided a domain but I would suggest you to do that as well.
