WordPress isn't showing on my domain?

Question

-I have purchased a domain with crazydomains
-I have purchased hosting with GoDaddy

I uploaded (installed?) the WordPress theme from the cPanel WebApplications and that all went ok i think, and i went to my domain and it showed up as 'this domain is parked at crazydomains..'

i uninstalled and deleted the wordpress web application and tried to reinstall, but again nothing showed up, i also tried accessing the wpadmin or whatever but again it just showed the 'this domain is parked at...'

I went into cpanel and under the domain i clicked 'manage' here it showed the website ip, url and 'preview', i clicked preview and it showed the wordpress site?

-ive been to the website i bought the domain and it says its active
-on godaddy its says the hosting is working properly, no problems
-the urls match aswell

why isnt it showing up on my domain??

P.S im trying to install wordpress so i can install a separate premiumpress theme ive purchased.

Answer 1

Did you updated your hosting name servers to your domain which are provided by GoDaddy ?



If not, then login to crazydomains and update name servers (Ex ns1.godaddy.com or something like this) and your domain will start pointing with in few hours.



If name servers already configured, then clear your browser cashe and cookies and try again or try some other browser.

Answer 2

First, you have to point your domain DNS to godaddy servers on registrar site and wait about 48 hours for full propagation.



As about wordpress issue, I'm sure there's an auto installer in your cpanel center like softaculous or simplescripts. Just navigate there and select wordpress to proceed with installation. You can upload the theme from wordpress admin side > appearance > add new



Hope this is clear for you

Did you configure your My SQL database yet? You need to set up that separately under MySQL then edit (or create) the file wp.config.php with the info that points to your database-you probably have the file wp.config-sample.php. in your wordpress installation.Edit the relevant lines (3 MAYBE 4 of them) and save/rename it to wp.config.php .Once that is configured properly you should be able to access wordpress at http://nameofyoursite.com/wp-admin/install.php



These are the lines you need to edit.Replace the fields in 'small letters' with your info.



define( 'DB_NAME', 'database_name_here' );

define( 'DB_USER', 'username_here' );

define( 'DB_PASSWORD', 'password_here' );

define( 'DB_HOST', 'localhost' );



you can try leaving the DB host set to" localhost." -that "usually" is OK. If that doesn't work you'll have to contact the hosting provider for the info.

Hello



You need to go into your domain name account (crazydomains), and point your domain name to your server with your ip address.
