A More Secure Wordpress Setup for Raspberry Pi

Submitted by Sam Hobbs on

In my previous tutorial for installing Wordpress on a Raspberry Pi, I showed how to do a "quick and dirty" installation, by changing ownership of the whole Wordpress installation folder to the web server process (www-data). This gets the job done, because Wordpress is able to make changes to its own configuration files, themes and plugins.

How to Install WordPress on a Raspberry Pi

WordPress on Raspberry Pi This tutorial will show you how to take a vanilla Raspbian image and turn it into a HTTP server hosting one or more WordPress website. I’ve previously written a few bits and pieces about WordPress, but I’ve never actually covered how to install it on a Raspberry Pi until now. This was one of the first things I did with my Pi, so I’m going to assume you know very little and try to be as detailed as possible. The actual WordPress bit is very quick and easy once the ground work is done: wordpress.org has a 5 minute installation guide, but it doesn’t tell you how to do the difficult bits! This tutorial will cover everything you need, from the ground up.

Multiple Websites and Subdomains with SSL/TLS in Apache2: Virtualhosts

Submitted by Sam Hobbs on

Want to host more than one website on your Raspberry Pi, without having to pay for multiple IP addresses? You can do this easily using Apache’s name-based VirtualHost configuration feature. This feature allows someone to connect to your Raspberry Pi (or other server) and get served different content based on the host header they sent with their request. This is automatic, and the user is none the wiser: they simply type your web address in the header, and your server uses that information to decide which website to display. Unless you tell them, they won’t know the Pi is also hosting other content.
