Keep up the good work. It really helps a lot. I have never found a full video covering all of this in one go

UPDATE: I forgot to mention that you'll need to change the WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL) before you restart Apache, otherwise redirects won't work properly. You can do this one of two ways: either in the Settings > General tab on your WordPress dashboard, or in phpMyAdmin > wordpress database > wp_options table. Change the http IP address to the https:// version of the domain you purchased.

Thank you for amazing video showing how stuff works keep up the good work.

I have questions if you don’t mind helping me.

You know when you put self-hosting
Allow from your.public.ip.address
</location>

How do I add more then one IP address is there a way to input it (192.12…., 193.12… or 192.12…, 193.12…) not sure how that works

Your tutorial was very comprehensive and helpful. I installed WordPress exactly as you instructed, and everything was working correctly. However, when I followed your instructions to activate SSL, my site stopped working and I received the following message in my browser: "The page isn’t redirecting properly." How can I fix this?

Is there a way to get a free tls, and a ssl certificate? Also I go to the website and see that I don’t have a hosting ip onto my namecheap website

I wonder if the cert renewal works after adding the redirection?
