Setting up a site without a domain name
-
Hi, I am hoping you can help me with a small problem. I am developing a site for a friend who already has a website up and running for his company. He has purchased a second hosting package and I have installed WordPress, hoping to put together the site so we can just change the nameservers when it is ready to launch with them having minimum downtime. The problem is that of course the log in page for me to get to the WordPress Dashboard is linking to his original domain name and not the new hosting package. I found this link (https://www.lockedowndesign.com/install-wordpress-without-domain-name/) and have tried that but still can’t seem to access the WordPress side I have just set up. Any help would be gratefully received. Thanks.

Hi there,
Do you have the URL of the website you’re working on?
As you’re talking about ‘installing WordPress’ it sounds like you mean a self hosted WordPress.org website and not one hosted on WordPress.com.
This is the forum for WordPress.com.
For help with WordPress.org websites please see here:
