Caution!

Under General Settings – Server IP: Leave this blank unless you are sure that you have a static IP for your website. Once you put an IP address, you can not remove it. Most small businesses likely have dynamic IP address, which means the IP address changes all the time. I checked my public IP address and typed in the IP address, and then realized my website is not on static IP. I spent many hours trying to remove the IP address but couldn’t. So, I ended up uninstalling LiteSpeed.

I spent past week tweaking various settings to improve my website loading speed. But some settings I setup blocked safari to load my website. I initially thought my website was hacked. After a few days of investigating and trying various malware plugins, I realized it’s was some setting I went on too aggressively in the LiteSpeed. So, I spent many more hours trying to reverse the setting responsible for the breakage, and during this tweaking process I typed in the Sever IP address in the general setting. I even tried uninstalling for a day and reinstall it, even then whatever the IP address that was there automatically showed up. In the end, I had to uninstall it because I could not delete the incorrect IP address. Litespeed should provide option to reinstall fresh.
