In this guide, we will walk you through how to install WordPress using EasyEngine on both Ubuntu 18.04 and Debian. Whether you&#8217;re hosting your WordPress site on a  or another hosting provider, EasyEngine simplifies the process of setting up and managing WordPress sites.<\/p>\n<h2>Prerequisites<\/h2>\n<p>Before starting, ensure you have the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>An Ubuntu 18.04 or Debian server, which can be hosted on a <a href=\"https:\/\/ie.netcloud24.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow\">UK Windows VPS<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/ie.netcloud24.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow\">Windows VPSVirtual Private Servers<\/a>, or another <a href=\"https:\/\/ie.netcloud24.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow\">Windows VPS Hosting UK<\/a> solution.<\/li>\n<li>Root or sudo privileges on your server.<\/li>\n<li>A domain name pointed to your server&#8217;s IP address.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Step 1: Update Your System<\/h2>\n<p>Before installing EasyEngine, ensure your system is up to date by running the following commands:<\/p>\n<pre><code>sudo apt update &amp;&amp; sudo apt upgrade -y<\/code><\/pre>\n<h2>Step 2: Install Docker<\/h2>\n<p>EasyEngine relies on Docker to manage WordPress installations. To install Docker, run the following commands:<\/p>\n<pre><code>curl -fsSL https:\/\/get.docker.com | sh<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>After installation, start Docker and enable it to start at boot:<\/p>\n<pre><code>sudo systemctl start docker\r\nsudo systemctl enable docker<\/code><\/pre>\n<h2>Step 3: Install EasyEngine<\/h2>\n<p>Now that Docker is installed, you can install EasyEngine. Use the following command to download and install EasyEngine:<\/p>\n<pre><code>wget -qO ee https:\/\/rt.cx\/ee4 &amp;&amp; sudo bash ee<\/code><\/pre>\n<h2>Step 4: Configure DNS for Your Domain<\/h2>\n<p>Ensure that your domain name is pointed to your server&#8217;s IP address. This is essential for installing SSL certificates and ensuring that WordPress runs correctly.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 5: Install WordPress with EasyEngine<\/h2>\n<p>Once EasyEngine is installed, you can use it to install WordPress. Use the following command to set up a new WordPress site with SSL support (using Let&#8217;s Encrypt):<\/p>\n<pre><code>sudo ee site create your-domain.com --type=wp --ssl=le<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>Replace <code>your-domain.com<\/code> with your actual domain. This command will automatically download and configure WordPress, Nginx, and obtain an SSL certificate from Let&#8217;s Encrypt.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 6: Access Your WordPress Site<\/h2>\n<p>Once the installation is complete, you can access your new WordPress site by visiting <code>https:\/\/your-domain.com<\/code> in your web browser. You will be greeted by the WordPress setup wizard, where you can complete the installation by entering your site details and creating an admin account.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 7: Manage WordPress with EasyEngine<\/h2>\n<p>EasyEngine makes it easy to manage your WordPress site. Here are some useful commands:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Restart the site:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<pre><code>sudo ee site restart your-domain.com<\/code><\/pre>\n<ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Check the status of the site:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<pre><code>sudo ee site info your-domain.com<\/code><\/pre>\n<ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Delete the site:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<pre><code>sudo ee site delete your-domain.com<\/code><\/pre>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>By following these steps, you have successfully installed WordPress using EasyEngine on Ubuntu 18.04 or Debian.
