This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing WooCommerce on OpenBSD. WooCommerce is a popular e-commerce platform that allows you to easily create an online store to sell your products.
Before you begin, you need to make sure you have the following:
To download WooCommerce, go to the WooCommerce website (https://woocommerce.com/) and click the "Get Started" button. Follow the instructions on the screen to download the latest version of WooCommerce.
Open a terminal window and navigate to the directory where you downloaded the WooCommerce archive.
Extract the archive using the following command:
sudo tar xf woocommerce-x.x.x.zip -C /var/www/htdocs/
Replace "x.x.x" with the version number of the archive you downloaded.
Move the extracted files to the root directory of your web server with the following command:
sudo mv /var/www/htdocs/woocommerce /var/www/htdocs/
Change the ownership of the WooCommerce files to the Apache user with the following command:
sudo chown -R www:www /var/www/htdocs/woocommerce
Open a web browser and navigate to your server's IP address or domain name.
Follow the WordPress installation instructions to install WordPress on your server.
Once WordPress is installed, log into the WordPress admin dashboard.
Click on "Plugins" from the menu on the left-hand side of the dashboard.
Click on the "Add New" button at the top of the screen.
Search for "WooCommerce" in the search bar.
Install the WooCommerce plugin by clicking the "Install" button.
Activate the WooCommerce plugin by clicking the "Activate" button.
Follow the WooCommerce setup wizard to configure the plugin.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed WooCommerce on OpenBSD. You can now use WooCommerce to create an online store and start selling your products.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
