    Hello,

    I have this IP: https://example1.noip.me:99/
    that I set up at noip.com
    with a DNS Host (A) option, to my localhost

    But I would like it to work like this: https://example1.noip.me

    I am able to change it to another caategory/option, like Web Redirect.

    I have this other Host: example2.no-ip.org, which updates automatically (set up in the router).
    So I was thinking to redirect, on the noip site, the first one (example1) to the second one (example2).

    Things work fine, if I access https://example1.noip.me (without the port number), after redirecting it to example2.no-ip.org:99 (on the noip site).
    However, links no longer work (in the WordPress site), since there, I have set up example2.no-ip.org:99, so it tries to follow links with that address.

    So what am I supposed to do?
    If I change the siteurl and home to https://example1.noip.me, the site no longer works (I believe it redirects itself infinitely?).

    So I was reading to add this to the function.php file:
    remove_filter(‘template_redirect’,’redirect_canonical’);

    Then it shows up, but only text, no formatting, and the links dont work either.

    What am I doing wrong? Or How can I solve this issue?

    Thanks!

    I’m not sure you are going to get a lot of help here, you might be able to get more help on a support forum for networking.

    I strongly discourage hosting a live site on your local machine. Is there a reason you don’t just go with a web hosting service and purchase a domain? I would recommend taking that approach instead of continuing down this path.

    Thanks, I will try in the networking section.
    The reason is, because it is a site that will probably not have too many accesses, and doesn’t need to be online 100% either.
    And it’s free ??

    If you want free, have you considered WordPress.COM?

    https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    Running your own server isn’t a simple thing unless you know quite a lot about it.

    “animaanonima.wordpress.com doesn’t exist
    The address animaanonima.wordpress.com cannot be registered. Sorry, that site is reserved!”

    Besides, hosting it on my own is also a learning purpose.

    Looks like you could buy that as a domain name such as:

    https://shop.whois.com/domain-registration/index.php

    $18 per year on WP.COM https://store.wordpress.com/premium-upgrades/custom-domains/
