Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Static deployment of WordPress in KubernetesHello!
Setting up WordPress in Kubernetes with persistent storage can be a bit tricky, but there are some best practices you can follow for updating your WordPress site using CI/CD and redeployment.
One approach is to use a separate container or job to update your WordPress files, and then deploy a new version of your WordPress pod with the updated files. Here are the basic steps:
- Create a separate container or job in your deployment that will handle updating the WordPress files. This container or job can use a shared volume with the WordPress pod to access the persistent storage.
- Use a tool like WP-CLI or a custom script to update the WordPress files in the shared volume.
- Once the WordPress files have been updated, trigger a new deployment of your WordPress pod. This can be done through your CI/CD pipeline, or manually using the kubectl command line tool.
- When the new version of the WordPress pod is deployed, it will use the updated files from the shared volume.
As for the issue you’re experiencing with the persistent storage being mounted with nothing in it, it’s possible that there is an issue with how your volumes are being configured. You may need to double-check your volume and volume mount definitions to ensure that they are correctly pointing to the persistent storage.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

In reply to: WP updates and file permissionsHello,
You’re right that it’s generally recommended not to give the web server user/group write permissions to most files in your WordPress installation, for security reasons. However, as you noted, this can create issues when it comes to updating WordPress from the backend.
One solution is to use a method called “FTP credentials” to allow WordPress to update itself without giving the web server user/group write permissions. This involves creating an FTP account for WordPress to use and configuring WordPress to use those credentials for updates.
To do this, you’ll need to:
- Set up an FTP account on your web server with write permissions to your WordPress installation directory.
- Install a plugin that allows you to set FTP credentials for WordPress, such as “FTP Credentials”.
- Configure the plugin to use the FTP account you created in step 1.
With this setup, when WordPress needs to update itself, it will use the FTP credentials you provided to access the necessary files and make the updates, without needing write permissions for the web server user/group.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

In reply to: open a page on a subdomainTo make the page “test.ru/123” accessible on the subdomain “test.test.ru”, you can create a subdomain in your website hosting account and then set up a redirect from the subdomain to the desired page.
Here are the general steps to follow:
- Log in to your website hosting account and create a subdomain called “test” or whatever you prefer.
- Set up a redirect from the subdomain “test.test.ru” to “test.ru/123”. The exact steps for setting up a redirect depend on your hosting provider, but typically you can do this using a tool in your hosting account’s control panel.
- Once the redirect is set up, test.test.ru should display the contents of test.ru/123.
Keep in mind that creating a redirect may affect your website’s search engine optimization, so you may want to consult with an SEO expert or do some research on best practices for implementing redirects before proceeding.
