I installed WordPress on GCP using Bitnami Certified by Automattic and created a static IP, created an SSH tunnel and installed SSL using the bitnami tool sudo /opt/bitnami/bncert-tool and the SSL installed successfully on my main domain name.
But whenever I access phpMyAdmin page on my machine using the SSH tunnel, the page lacks the SSL/HTTPS, how do I make sure the phpMyAdmin page is secured on my computer so I don't have to worry about hackers and stuff?
I have not tried anything so far because I don't know where to start.
Thank you!

I have a wordpress website in localhost and a hosting plan with a domain name on Bluehost.com
My website is ready and now I wanted to go live and push my website to hosting server using Git. But in Bluehost C-panel there is no git option.
I have searched google but did not succeed to find a solution, so I came here if somebody could redirect to me to a tutorial link or give me some clues on how to do it i would be very grateful.
If you have VPS or Dedicated server on bluehost, try this manual from Bluehost FAQ:
https://my.bluehost.com/cgi/help/2383
Pretty sure, that you must manually import database (as it not included to git and can't upload automatically in mysql) and configure again wp-config.php. Also you don't say, what server you using with localhost, cause it can be different from bluehost config (for example apache / nginx / php version).
Can you please help me. I have a hosting server and I only have FTP access. There is OAK cms installed at the hosting machine WWW directory and this old CMS is hosting a page in production.
I would like to ask what is the proper way to install Wordpress to this machine without shut down the old webpage. Should I install WordPress to a subdirectory? If yes, then how can I forward all the request to the new subdirectory? unfortunately
I don't have access to the DNS server to modify it.
Thank you!
I recently installed wordpress on my Ubuntu 16.04 machine. In order to connect to a wordpress website locally I made some configurational changes because of that whenever I try to connect to localhost, browser directs my requests to http://localhost.192.168.1.33.xip.io/ automatically. I am not able to access my local Wordpress because of this. Please help.
I had the same issue and solved. If you are using bitnami, you need to change site URL in bnconfig.
sudo /opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/bnconfig --machine_hostname YOURDOMANIN
For more details, please have a look at bitnami forum.
Good luck
is there any localhost CPanel like app/software that we can install wordpress?
because I would like to teach on how to install wordpress in CPanel just using localhost setup so we can avoid damaging our host CPanel.
Many thanks :)
You can install WordPress in any subdomain or sub directory on your website to avoid any main host damage. As a result, you do not need to setup any local environment for testing purpose.
Nowadays, most of the hosting providers offer one click installation tool [like Fantastico, Softaculous etc..,] in cPanel from where you can install WordPress in a minute.
I'm running wordpress on a micro EC2 instance using a bitnami AMI (ami-8333ffea to be exact) but I think this question applies to any bitnami cloud application. I've designated an Elastic IP and mapped a subdomain to the instance (e.g., blog.example.com). So far, so good.
Now I can access the blog but the URLs all contain '/wordpress' (blog.example.com/wordpress/.../). Bitnami has documentation (click 'Cloud Image/Bitnami Hoting' tab) for fixing this but I've tried following it several times without success. I make the changes, the site still works but '/wordpress' is still there taunting me. The machine is running Apache2 and the instructions all seem to make sense. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Please help.
Probably the WordPress siteurl setting was not updated. The following command has to be executed:
sudo /opt/bitnami/mysql/bin/mysql -u root -p -e "use bitnami_wordpress; update wp_options set option_value='http://blog.example.com' where option_name='siteurl' or option_name='home'"
Make sure that you substitute "blog.example.com" in the example above with your own domain name.
And after changing the httpd.conf file, the Apache web server should be restarted:
sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh restart apache
You can take a look at the BitNami Cloud Hosting article explaining how to assign a custom domain to your server, you can directly jump to the 6th section.
