This is a quick and easy way to create a Wordpress, and it only takes a few minutes, and by hosting your Wordpress on Alibaba Cloud, you'll be able to take advantage of the cost-effective pricing plans that Alibaba Cloud has to offer.
For this tutorial, you'll need to have a valid Alibaba Cloud account and have created a cluster using Alibaba Cloud Container Service. If you do not have a cluster, you need to first create a cluster first before going any further in this tutorial. For information about how to do this, check out the tutorial Create a cluster. Once finished, you can proceed with the rest of the tutorial.
Follow these steps to go through this tutorial:
1. Log on to the Container Service Management Console.
2. Click Applications in the left navigation pane, and then click Create Application in the upper-right corner. For a bit of reference, consider the screenshot below.
3. Enter the application information, and click Create with application template.
4. Click Use existing application template, and click Select beside the wordpress template.
5. Modify corresponding settings in the template edit box. Note that aliyun.routing.port_80: http://wordpress
indicates that requests from http://wordpress.$testDomain
are forwarded to Port 80 on the container after the container starts running.
6. Click Create and deploy.
7. Click View application list, Back to application list or Applications in the left navigation pane. As shown in the screenshot below, the application wordpress-test was already created now. So, you can click wordpress-test in the application list to view the application details.
