Need Help !
I have my wordpress installed on aws ubuntu instance , my domain is registered on 1and1.com , I want to change the url (home and siteurl) of wordpress to registered domain, so that when I access site I can see domain url in all pages.When I try to change home url and site url from General Settings from WordPress dashboard(Ex: http://www.example.com) . I cannot access my site or dashboard when I key in domain( http://www.example.com)
Followed this blog, none of them worked https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL
I need a way to view my registered domain not my aws ip for my wordpress site.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi @aravinsnaini
If you have WordPress installed on an Ubuntu server, you need the DNS records pointed properly to that server before the URL will redirect to it. Once they are populated, it takes time for the nameservers to propagate. After it propagates, you will be able to see the changes you make in your WordPress dashboard.
Here’s some info on propagation delays with 1 & 1.
Also, WordPress.com forums are for hosted websites. Since you are self-hosted, you’ll find information and support related to self-hosting on the WordPress.org site:
You’ll want to visit the support for self-hosted websites here:
