Click the Deploy to DigitalOcean button to create a Droplet based on this 1-Click App. If you aren’t logged in, this link will prompt you to log in with your DigitalOcean account.
In addition to creating a Droplet from the UXWizz 1-Click App using the control panel, you can also use the DigitalOcean API. As an example, to create a 4GB UXWizz Droplet in the SFO2 region, you can use the following curl
command. You need to either save your API access token) to an environment variable or substitute it in the command below.
curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer '$TOKEN'' -d \
'{"name":"choose_a_name","region":"sfo2","size":"s-2vcpu-4gb","image": "tips4designsrl-uxwizz"}' \
"https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/droplets"
It is recommended that you set up the domain name before the first access.
Important Note: If you see a screen asking you to set up your database, wait a few more minutes until the database creation has completed and refresh the page. You should see a screen asking you to choose your admin password
You can access your dashboard at http://your_droplet_public_ipv4 to set your admin password.
Login with the username admin and your chosen password.
For this, you need to add some DNS records on your domain at your registrar.
Add two A records from your domain (or subdomain name) to the IP of your server (you need to add the domain both with and without www).
Replace stats.example.com and IP address with your actual domain name and Droplet IP.
A stats.example.com 123.456.78.9
A www.stats.example.com 123.456.78.9
Access your server’s console and run this command to generate a free HTTPS certificate using certbot (certbot comes pre-installed):
Note: replace stats.example.com
and www.stats.example.com
with the domain names used in step 1.
certbot --apache --agree-tos -d stats.example.com -d www.stats.example.com
There are 3-4 questions you have to respond to in the console after running that command in order for the certificate to be issue 3. Access the dashboard using your new domain name.
You must update your UXWizz dashboard to use the new domain name by going to Settings→Tracking→Server Path and making sure the path is correct by clicking “reset”.
If you have already added any tracking snippets on your websites, also update the included tracking code to use the new domain name.
For more information on dashboard usage and tracking websites, see the UXWizz docs.
