    I recently loaded WP-stat to my two month old website, which was created on AWS lightsail and using s53 to configure all my DNS entries. In wp-stats I see site called Parleyactivo.com acting as what the plugin calls a referring site. The problem or is it a problem, when go to this site IT looks identical to my site with same ip address.

    I see no entry for site in my s53 or my /etc/hosts file.

    I am having no apparent issues at this time but this does NOT seem normal to me?

    when looking apache access_log I get the following a number times in the file;

    46.229.168.140 - - [29/Dec/2019:23:33:59 +0000] "GET /wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%
2Fparleyactivo.com%2F20180616_142013%2F HTTP/1.1" 200 1933

    when looking at my httpd-vhosts.conf file i see the Server name as ;

    <VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerName wordpress.example.com/easy-facebook-lt
    ServerAlias www.wordpress.example.comhX.css HTTP/1.1"
    DocumentRoot "/opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/htdocs"i
    SSLEngine on/easy-facebook-l
    SSLCertificateFile "/opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/conf/certs/server.crtss,qver=5.2.3.pae
""
    SSLCertificateKeyFile "/opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/conf/certs/server./easy-facebook-l
key"F39IA4HvTK.css He

    Is this something I should be worried about?
    thanks for any help someone can give me?

    That’s kind of funny really and I guess it happens from time to time…

    Your site at AWS is answering as any domain name pointing to it at its IP address. That may not sound like a problem but it’s possibly an ownership issue down the road. And possibly an identity issue.

    You wouldn’t want someone pointing some goofy domain at your content and causing confusion down the road.

    I’m also unsure of where the subscription or contact info goes from that other site and I sure don’t want to try it to find out.

    http://parleyactivo.com/

    http://54.68.124.86/

    Call or contact AWS support and ask them how to fix that.

    Also, I noticed your site refers to your facebook page from your site title and a relative link at the home button. They should both point at your own domain name.

    can you change the ServerName to my server name in this this file or is it a requirement that wordpress.example.com stay here?

    /opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/conf$ cat httpd-vhosts.conf
    <VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName wordpress.example.com
    ServerAlias http://www.wordpress.example.com
    DocumentRoot “/opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/htdocs”

    Include “/opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/conf/httpd-app.conf”
    </VirtualHost>

    <VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerName wordpress.example.com
    ServerAlias http://www.wordpress.example.com
    DocumentRoot “/opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/htdocs”
    SSLEngine on
    SSLCertificateFile “/opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/conf/certs/server.crt”
    SSLCertificateKeyFile “/opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/conf/certs/server.key”

    Include “/opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/conf/ht
