Also guys, one thing I forgot to mention is to tear everything down, just do

$ docker-compose down --volumes

Hey, thanks for the video. For anyone having a database connection error: For WORDPRESS_DB_HOST use the full container name that compose will generate instead of only the service name. E.g. wordpress-db-1:3306
After a lot of troubleshooting that fixed it for me. :)

Bravo Brad! 👏🏼After several hours and 8 different tutorials, this is the only process from scratch that works. Bless you, thank you

[fichthammerli]

calm yet dense explaining. never had the urge to skip or fast forward.

just perfect, thank you!

[azazahamed]

Hey Brad. I hope you make a follow-up video explaining how we can take the locally developed WordPress service containers and transfer to live webservers. Essentially making the whole installation portable.

This configuration is the only thing that worked for me after 10+ hours of messing with this. Everytime I would run docker-compose up -d using my last docker-compose file, the wp_content folder would always be completely empty and I had no idea why. Thank you so f'ing much, I can't tell you what a relief this has been. I will most definitely be purchasing some of your courses. Again, you are awesome and thank you.

Simple, straight, to the point.
"No-nonsense guide to build WordPress with docker compose."
Awesome.

You literally made my life so easy, I've spent the whole day yesterday figuring out to setup Wordpress using XAMMP and MAMP and it just won't work, I've read a dozen articles at least to understand what I'm doing wrong. A mere thanks wouldn't be enough to say but thank you, Brad!

[clivenoonan]

Brilliant, could you please do a video deploying a WordPress site from docker to digital ocean,
This work flow will only increase wordpress popularity, seriously time saving,
Thanks

Great! Not many people, talking about a Docker, are saying, that this could be used exactly like that (as a quckly setup server for a local machine). That was really useful for me!

[geraldbullardjr]

THANKS so much for this! Easy to follow, I have spent YEARS using WAMP/XAMP etc, just started with Docker and this video makes it REALLY easy to get started developing WP sites locally with Docker :)

[hasan]

Every time I hear the intro sound, I scroll down and hit like, then Watch the video because it is Brad Traversy. Thanks buddy for help in everything..

[lexerquine]

I cannot say more thanks to you in any context enough. you are my hero and i humbly say thank you again and forever

[andrewkiminhwan]

SUPER hyped for the headless wordpress tutorial you're coming out with!
I've been trying to make a site with vue and wordpress api for a client but still in design phases, so super timely. what a life saver that would be to watch my hero make it that way

[BirkinIdk]

Genuinely great tutorial, many thanks man. Worked flawlessly where other tutorials/guides did not.

[codedbychavez]

Watching in 2021. Big love brad! you work is impacting so many.

[HostDotPromo]

There is levels to this, docker is awesome once you get the hang of it.

[djordjearsenovic]

Headless wordpress would be so awesome. :) cause wp has a great API and woocommerce too so we could build, a whole shop in angular or something like that. Please please do that tutorial or even better make it a full course. I would buy that for sure! :) You are great as always man thanks for all the knowledge. :)

[MrJohn-wyhn]

Finally headless WordPress coming. I can't wait.
