Enabling the CDN¶
Before your DNS is configured, you can get the CDN ready to use by following these steps:
- Turn on QUIC.cloud CDN in WordPress
- Verify your server IP in QUIC.cloud
- Enable CDN in QUIC.cloud
Here they are described in more detail.
Turn on QUIC.cloud CDN¶
From your WordPress dashboard, navigate to LiteSpeed Cache > CDN, set QUIC.cloud CDN to ON
, and press the Save Changes button.
Verify Your Server IP¶
Go back to your QUIC.cloud Dashboard. If you are not already on the Services Overview page for your domain, you can get there by either clicking your domain name on the my.quic.cloud page, or access it directly at https://my.quic.cloud/dm/example.com
(where example.com
is your domain name). Click on Settings in the top navigation bar, and check the value of the auto-detected Server IP. Verify that it matches your WordPress site's IP address.
Tip
If you don't know your site's IP address, open your browser's developer tools, go to the Network tab, load up a page on your site, and look for the Remote Address
response header.
Enable the CDN¶
Navigate to CDN from the top navigation menu and press the Enable CDN button.
From there, QUIC.cloud may walk you through additional setup screens, during which you will be asked how you wish to configure your DNS. You can use QUIC.cloud DNS, which is the simplest option, or you can set up your DNS records manually using the CNAME method. If you're not sure which to choose, see the DNS Overview for more information.
