Check out the documentation below to find out how to provision a server with any providers*: * [**How To Setup First Server With Vultr?**](https://oriv.cloud/docs/how-to-get-free-hosting-with-vultr/) * [**How To Setup Your First Server With Google Cloud Platform Provider?**](https://dev1.oriv.cloud/docs/first-server-with-google-cloud-platform) * [**How To Setup Server With Other Providers?**](https://dev1.oriv.cloud/?post_type=docs\&p=268\&preview=true) We’ve made it easier and safer for you to connect ORIV with your DigitalOcean account. You no longer have to go through the hassle of generating and copying access tokens. Now, ORIV will guide you through an OAuth flow, where you simply authorize ORIV to use your DigitalOcean account. All you have to do is provision a new DigitalOcean server, click “Authorize” during the setup, and you’ll be redirected to DigitalOcean to grant permission to your account. It’s a straightforward and hassle-free process to set up your server with Digital Ocean. > \[!NOTE] > Precisa de ajuda visual para esta etapa?

Now you need to provide the **Server name**, your preferred **Server Size** (CPU, RAM, storage), and the **Region** nearest to you and your visitors. Only, MySQL 8.0 database server is now available. By default Database, the **Root Password** is auto-filed but you can change this and save it in a safe place.\ We recommend at least a 2GB/ 1 shared CPU server for 10-20 sites with cache enabled. And for a site whose pages cannot be cached (e.g. WooCommerce site) we recommend a 4 GB / 2 dedicated CPUs server. > \[!NOTE] > Precisa de ajuda visual para esta etapa?

Entre em contato com o nosso suporte em **[support@oriv.cloud](mailto:support@oriv.cloud)**. Now all you have to do is install and Go Live with your WordPress Site. You can do the next process with 3 simple and easy steps. > \[!NOTE] > Precisa de ajuda visual para esta etapa? Entre em contato com o nosso suporte em **[support@oriv.cloud](mailto:support@oriv.cloud)**. 1. Add a **Site Title** 2. Add **Tags** if you want 3. Choose to **Go Live** 4. **DNS Configuration:** If you add the domain and want to visit the live site you need to configure your DNS. ORIV does not handle your DNS but all you need to do is remove any existing A records and add the A record as shown above. For example, if your domain is on Cloudflare then all you need to do is add an A record with the domain name, and your server IP address. > \[!NOTE] > Precisa de ajuda visual para esta etapa? Entre em contato com o nosso suporte em **[support@oriv.cloud](mailto:support@oriv.cloud)**. **Note:** Make sure to turn off the proxy status as shown in the above image and also turn off the SSL/TLS. Otherwise, you might face conflicts and redirect loops if you enable this and also oriv’s Free SSL service. > \[!NOTE] > Precisa de ajuda visual para esta etapa? Entre em contato com o nosso suporte em **[support@oriv.cloud](mailto:support@oriv.cloud)**. To use a **Free SSL certificate** by **Let’s Encrypt** simply turn on the HTTPS enable button and ORIV will automatically set everything for you. Facing issues with adding A records in your DNS provider? Read our documentation on DNS management for various domain providers from the [FAQ](https://oriv.cloud/docs-category/faq/) section. You can then simply hit the Next Button to create your site and **Go Live** instantly. ### **Configure Additional Settings** By default, the WordPress admin credentials are autogenerated to speed up the site creation process. As soon as your site is deployed you will receive your Site credentials on your email address. Later on, you can update your password if needed. From “**More Advanced Settings**” you can update the default **Admin Username**, **Admin Password, Admin Email Address,** etc along with other additional settings from here. > \[!NOTE] > Precisa de ajuda visual para esta etapa? Entre em contato com o nosso suporte em **[support@oriv.cloud](mailto:support@oriv.cloud)**. After the previous step, click on the ‘**Next**’ button. It might take only 1-2 minutes to create your WordPress site. > \[!NOTE] > Precisa de ajuda visual para esta etapa?

Try Staging Environment** Also, If you do not want to point your domain yet then ORIV offers temporary domains to make your site live with every Site creation method available in ORIV.

If you are migrating from cPanel/Plesk, new email hosting is needed. ORIV doesn’t automatically include email setup for your sites. WordPress often requires reliable transactional email delivery, but default systems can fail, causing spam or delivery issues. Using services like Mailgun for efficient email delivery is recommended. The process of setting up and configuring Mailgun for WordPress can be found **[here](https://oriv.cloud/docs/setting-up-site-emails-for-wordpress-on-oriv/)**. Still stuck?
