Configure NGINX to use PHP:

    root /var/www/html;

    index index.php index.html index.htm;

    server_name example.com;

    location / {

        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;

    }

    location ~ \.php$ {

        include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;

        fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;

    }

    location ~ /\.ht {

        deny all;

    }

}

Replace example.com with your domain name.

Enable SSL:

tar xzvf latest.tar.gz

sudo mv wordpress /var/www/html/

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/wordpress

Complete the WordPress installation:

Open your web browser and navigate to your domain name. Follow the instructions to complete the WordPress installation, providing the MySQL database and user information created earlier.

That's it! You should now have NGINX, PHP, MySQL, SSL, and WordPress installed on your Ubuntu system.
