I never see this -thing- so clear as you explained here! Really, it's like all those command lines now actually make sense to me!
Thanks!
Awesome, I'm so happy to hear that :)
Sweet tutorial. Followed this thoroughly as well as other guides with no luck, my two separate installs of wordpress are installed correctly and accessible however visiting my separate domains will take me to the one site. Must be something else

Great to hear it :)
Perfect! To the point and complete. Neophyte trying to deploy on Linode. I didn't even know what LAMP was! Very helpful!
Great to hear!

You're very welcome!
Perfect. And I know people wrote it before, just want to comment to promote the video. Thank you.
Thanks! It's been really helpful while trying to get two WP sites running in parallel
Very good explanation. Thank you for this video. It cleared my doubts...😊
This turtorial is not full! 🙂 You have two site from the beginning, but how did you do that? When I install two different sites WordPress to the two different directories, change apache2 settings, however I came to the first site!
Exactly the video I was looking for, thank you for making it!

How to remove one of the website from multiple websites without effect other

Simple & straight to the point! Thanks
Sure thing Kevin
Thank you for that helpful info and thank you for no background music.
Of course!
Hey.. Thanks for this help but please can you tell how enable ssl for wordpress. i failed to enable SSL with Lets Encrypt ! Could you do video for it ?
Hi. I’ve got a new client who says it’s Wordpress but I’ve finally logged into cPanel but don’t see WP installed. Though the files are there. Is apache also in cPanel ? I think it’s apache . How can I access the files to make changes if so
Followed all the steps but i cannot load the WP install. When i type the external IP address i get the Apache HTML welcome page. Any advice ?
Beautifully explained and made really easy. However I was wondering what are the security precautions that i have to take if I were to host my 3 business sites that I have in WordPress? Could you please help me on the same?
my second wordpress installation open up the 1st wordpress site can't I host unique niche, and also the permalinks have index.php sandwiched like domainpro.net/index.php/top-5-most.
Any help is commendable
Thank you in advance.
How does the DNS lookup know that site 1 2 and 3 are all on the same IP? There has been nothing done to separate site 1 from 2 from 3 so I'm trying to see how each site would be seen as a different site from another under the same IP . I know this is possible to do by specifying additional ports like site1:80 site2:81 site3:82 but I was wondering if there's another more simple way :/
The web server (like Apache) handles the external traffic and routes it to the proper site. The DNS server doesn't make this distinction. Make sense?
Wow! This is awesome. I can use this for the oracle free instance. Thank you, Tony
You’re welcome!
in the end you cleared the confusion, i was about to ask :)
any ssl binding video ?
Check this video out th-cam.com/video/bgcRhucEn90/w-d-xo.html
Superb! Bro Your are the Linux Genius.
If you are creating your own servers and hosting 3 sites how do you certbot each site?
Also how would you create a per user per site? Tried WordPress and it could not auto update the site as it did not have permissions and needed ftp setup
Hey Tony. Which DO droplet would you recommend for 30 WordPress websites? Websites include blogs, corporate, and e-commerce. Average traffic per website - 800.
Great video, just wondering why don't you need to change the ownership of /var/www/ instead of root to www-data?
By default that the /var/www/ directory has the appropriate permission after a fresh install of the OS
Hi Tony, Thank you so much for the tutorial it is very useful to me since I have a number of domains I need to host, I have a quick question, so all the domains are pointing to one IP address for that virtual machine?
I want to use GCP virtual machines
Yes, all domains will point their DNS records at the same IP address. Apache will do the work of routing which requests go to which website on your server
Can make custom domain website like that for free? Just like you did.
You'll need to purchase a domain name and web hosting. You do have some free options for web hosting though th-cam.com/video/6gHPY0qQebg/w-d-xo.html
Hey Tony, loved the video. But i'm using virtual box on mac to do this. how do i configure everything in my terminal, and use that as my primary workspace, just like you?
I wouldn't suggest developing directly in terminal on your Mac. Either spin up a VPS (at Linode, DigitalOcean, or Vultr) th-cam.com/video/IBswOtYVu2k/w-d-xo.html from $5/month or use a tool like DevKinsta th-cam.com/video/LsH-GIEgjag/w-d-xo.html assuming you are working exclusively with WordPress
Good tutorial. I just wondering which is the good practice to host multiple wordpress. Should i go with your tutorial or use container like docker?
Not sure about docker. Hosting multiple sites on the same server is okay. This is how many hosting companies work
@@TonyTeachesTech understand, thanks for the answers tony.
hi tony I have followed the step on you video(i except using linode for the hosting too) and I found that if I enter the site 2 website it will redirect to site 1
Please double check your Apache config file to make sure it matches my examples
very well detailed. thanks very much.
hi thanks for the tutorial.... what if i dont have site 1 or site 2 configurations to copy :/ is there a tutorial on how to host several websites from scratch on VPS
I don't think so
Wow! Its just Amazing Love it. Thanks very much.
Most welcome 😊
Is possible to change Domain name after everything is setup. I tried other way, it was not easy to change main site domain.
Yes, but it's complicated because you have to change it in many places
If I like 2 sites on server1 and 2 sites on server2 on same ip and port 80. I hope you can explan .
Why all your sites have the same port? is that valid? why?
We also have the same setup, linode and namecheap but my second domain does not display from its configured DocumentRoot instead it pulls the default one with the first domain name
Make sure to have a unique ServerName in each of you config files
@@TonyTeachesTech That worked
i have , now installing the plugins and updates prompts asking for ftp credentials
Try this th-cam.com/video/hPuB_yXfbK0/w-d-xo.html
Great video, but if you use bitnami LAMP amazon lightsail?
If your server is still LAMP, these instructions should still work for you
How secure is this though?
Do you need the new domain name for the website
Not necessarily. You can use a subdomain
How dns now that ip address is a localhost or public available domain.
You'll need to create an A record for your domain name that points to the IP address of your server
Good! Thank you! How about import ready file into localhost?!
You can use ftp or scp. I have videos for both on this channel
Great tutorials, should have much more followers. :)
I appreciate that a lot! Thanks :)
Hey Tony! Great Tutorial video. Can You please share the Commands which You use in this video?

@@TonyTeachesTech
Thanks (Y)
Dude!!!! ...there is something called "Control Panel". Does it ring any bell??????
By the way. I've benefitted so much from you vids about vps management. So thank you so much
I'm happy to hear that Mohammed!
Plz show how to create subdomain and install wordpress on it.
You can host a WordPress website at a subdomain with the same exact steps in this tutorial
How do I connect a vps with my domain like I do with nameserver in normal web hosting
Yep, simply add a DNS A record to your IP address
Great tutorial.. Thank you!
You're very welcome!
Do i need to point my new domain to this IP address before making these steps?
It would be very beneficial to do that as a first step. Technically you could use the IP addresses to begin with, but you'll eventually have to switch over to the domain, so might as well do it initially
@@TonyTeachesTech If do so, will the new domain also points to my current website? As my rDNS setting are pointing to my current website(Domain)
@@wanshinlee9866 No you can only have an A record that points to a single IP address. If you'd like to work on the new server without changing your DNS records but still use the domain name, you edit your local hosts file. I've made a video about this:
If you have Windows th-cam.com/video/Htn3WojEdMI/w-d-xo.html
If you have a Mac th-cam.com/video/bSjVIhJIDUo/w-d-xo.html
@@TonyTeachesTech Lots of thanks! so i need to delete the rDNS before pointing my new domain to the IP address?
@@wanshinlee9866 Yes, you won't need that anymore
Hey Tony It’s really nice…. Can u make out how to add ssl certificate to this wordpress websites
Check this out th-cam.com/video/ghZXFyIyK1o/w-d-xo.html
Can anyone please explain (" Does he need to buy these 3 domains? or it can be generated as inside the server? ")
You must buy the domain names from a registrar like Google Domains or Namecheap
I am not able to write in wp-config.php it is showing that you can't open file for writing
Sounds like you need to add write permissions to this file. Something like this...
chmod +w wp-config.php
@@TonyTeachesTech thank you so much sir.....ur videos are helping me a lot 🙏🙏🙏

How to host multiple websites with single IP address in Windows using XAMMP?
I again come too check if i am clicked on link button or not because i sm drunk
Uh oh 🍻
Instead of opening the website, my browser is googeling it...
Huh???
@@TonyTeachesTech Yeah I found the solution now. In Windows 10 you still have to configure the hosts-File for every single new virtual host in ubuntu. (Iam using WSL, the windows internal linux system)
