Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. https://crt.sh/?q=example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

Hi everybody I am so sorry to ask you this but please help
I am not at all a person that knows how to code
I tried for my website to go from http to https… i followed the instructions and everything worked until it said i must not have a correct ip address regarding the DNS of the website
The thing is, the only way i can try to change this IP address is by logging in into my Worpress account which is now closed because I entered : sudo certbot certonly --standalone
And now I think it shut down my website until i get a certificate which i CANT DO because i don’t understand anything
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me repair this mistake I just want to go back as if i did nothing
Please …Thank you so much
