This guide shows you how to set up Cloudzy’s WordPress One Click App
(OCA). With the One Click App, you can quickly start using applications
on a Virtual Private Server (VPS) like WordPress without handling the
usual setup steps. This is great if you want to get your website running
fast and efficiently.
Prerequisites
Before you start with WordPress OCA on your Cloudzy VPS, you need
these prerequisites in place:
-
Enough Credit in Account: Your Cloudzy account
should have the credit to set up and use WordPress OCA. -
Account Ready to Go: Make sure your account is
active. -
Operating System Considerations: The app is
already set up on Ubuntu. You can switch to a different version of
Ubuntu if needed. Here are the versions you can choose from: Ubuntu
18.04, Ubuntu 20.04, and Ubuntu 22.04.

WordPress Site with OCA
Step 1: Choosing Your
Application

Your Service

page. -
First, choose your server location. Options like Las Vegas,
Dallas, or Amsterdam might be available. -
Next, select the operating system. WordPress is used on Ubuntu,
you can choose the Ubuntu version you’d like to work with.
- Now, you need to choose your plan. Based on your requirements,
select the plan that provides your needed resources. Remember that more
vCPUs and memory will result in a more powerful server.
- Set a name for your service in the Hostname
field.
