Hello Colby! Thank you so much, this is exactly what I was missing! Do you have a video or maybe you plan to release a video on how to upload a headless WordPress + Next onto a VPS server?
So I'm assuming that you just use a different domain name for the WordPress portion (can you give an example) then and for the Next.js frontend side then you connect your 'real domain name' and do all of the SEO and Accessibility things on the Next side... is this correct? ** Also on the WordPress site would you just check the box for 'discourage search engines' box then too?? THANK YOU!! :)
yes! exactly. typically yeah, you would check that box, but if you're using plugins like Yoast SEO, it actually disables some settings because it think its not supposed to include the SEO tags 😅
@@amystout8696 yeahhh it's a bit confusing, i'll break it down So with WordPress we get a front end by default. there's a plugin called Yoast SEO that give you the ability to manage SEO tags like title and description and more when using WordPress headlessly (like we are in this video), we request our data from WordPress and bypass that default front end, this includes Yoast SEO data. the issue is that front end still works if you don't intentionally disable it, meaning, if you have wp.mydomain.com and mydomain.com that uses it, both websites would have a visible front end now WordPress has a feature to prevent robots from crawling it that you can turn on. it's a good way to have both sites, but the one just wont get indexed by google. it adds a noindex tag i believe. the issue however is when using Yoast SEO, yoast uses that flag to determine what to return when requesting data from WordPress, so if you want to receive all of your data, you can't check that flag, but then that creates an issue with your WordPress front end being available to crawl another way of handling the WordPress side is to create a theme that is empty, basically just turning off the front end, then you wouldn't worry about checking that flag and get all of your data hope that helps
Hey Colby, do you have a video on how setup the draft posts? Since they will need the authentication to be previewed? Would love to watch a video from you on this topic as you explain these things so well.
Hi! do you also have any templates that offer latest version (nextjs + wordpress cms)? I tried to use yours on github(it seems that it's src paths). and because it's our of date, i can't deploy it on vercel. if you have any templates that offers latest, I am willing to purchase!
hey! thats a pretty common scenario for using wordpress headlessly. as far as a formula goes, are you asking for recommendations for providers to host on?
@@TaderSalahEddine For WordPress: WP Engine is great for premium projects (a little pricier, but good service) I've had luck with AWS Lightsail in the past, but it's a little more hands-on to configure a few things There are a lot of others you could use For Front End: I really like Netlify, it's who I generally use Vercel who makes Next.js is also fantastic It's a little more limited who can deploy Next.js apps but there might be a few more

** Does the WordPress portion need to be on a 'live' server for the Netlify part? I did my WordPress part on localwp ...? Seems as long as the server is running it might work; no luck so far tho...
it only needs to be available when Netlify is actively deploying but Netlify needs to have access to it through the internet, so if it's only available locally on your computer, it may not be able to access it

hey good question! so when you run `yarn build` it will export static HTML, CSS, and JS files into the `out` directory, so really, you should be able to server that from any type of web server. now you can serve the project from a _node_ server, and the way you would do that is optionally remove the `next export` like you were saying, but when the server starts up, after build, you would run `yarn start`, which would run `next start` and make the project available at the specified port. there's definitely more details in the all of the above. the easiest way imo is to put the static `out` output somewhere that can serve those files 🤷♂️ common places to deploy Next.js lately are Vercel (who makes Next.js) and Netlify, which lets the deployment kind of "just work"

Is there a way to add ssl certificate for the Lightsail instance while its still a static ip (with no domain attached)? 2. Is there a way to prevent others from reaching the WP endpoints so only my app can display the content? Thanks :)
hey Daniel, good question, I'm not really sure about #1. As far as #2, I know you can do advanced networking within AWS, but I'm not sure if you can do that while attached through Lightsail.

Hey Colby, I created a Nextjs Hdlss WP Instance but having crazy slow down times on the Wordpress Admin Dashboard. I have a few Custom Post Types+Pages+Posts using Graphql and faustjs for schema generation. Images are using the Nextjs image tag to be called on the frontend. Perhaps it sthe dangerously set html call? HAve you run into these types of issues?
Hey Ethan. The website or WordPress admin is slow? I haven't used Faust but the website won't impact the WordPress instance beyond making calls to the API whenever it does. I doubt dangerouslyset is the culprit if it's the website that's slow. The only thing I've run into is slowness on development due to the nature of the API requests having to be made before each page loads
Can u please do a tutorial on how to set up authentication for your wpgraphql endpoint using nextjs and not this starter, this starter has a lot of moving parts that need more knowledge i think and not good for my use case.:(
thanks for the idea, but honestly doubt i'll get to that anytime soon. this starter i made for demos and testing is a little outdated but may help: github.com/colbyfayock/next-wpgraphql-basic-starter
Hi Colby, great video. I did this same thing on locahost. Essentially my project consisted of a very very basic WP theme, WP's Rest API and a React app created with npx create-react-app. I don't know much about Next JS yet. Would my set up still make this headless?
if you're using the REST API with a non-wordpress frontend then yup! I'd recommend checking out WPGraphQL, it's a great tool for working with WordPress data.
After following this video, it is my first time using Headlesss cms + frontend. If I am using this method to build for a client. Is there any free hosting stuff available for admin dashboard?
You can use the Custom Post Type UI plugin! there should be an option when creating to "show in graphql" and as long as that's selected, it will be available to query. realizing i dont have a video for that one, adding to my list
aws lightsail isn't free, but they allow you to add plugins. your best option may be creating a WordPress instance locally and playing with it there, could try using localwp.com/ - but that won't be available on the internet
How much content do I need on the Wordpress site for the starter to work? I just went with a default WP starter but keep getting an error in the terminal: GraphQL Request must include at least one of those two parameters: "query" or "queryId" ?
Ahh, sorry - I guess I missed something using the FakerPress plugin, not sure how I messed up? 😆 But I created a bit more fake content and everything is now up and running. This is really a great starter for someone new to Next.js - coming from Gatsby I guess there is a bit for me to learn!
@@LarsEjaas thanks Lars :) I'm curious why it wasn't working though before you ran Faker, I would have expected it to work with the default content WordPress comes with out of the box 🤔 but glad you got it working!
@@colbyfayock Not sure really. It seems like something here isn't working without any data to fetch with the graphQL API? I have run into something similar in Gatsby - but I didn't really debug too much - sorry!
So i have watched you another workdpress video, and their you have mentions about the web hook trick , so does that web hook thing works on hostinger, or it only works on netlify or vercel?
oh looks like you found the video :) heres the webhook with netlify ruclips.net/video/_KXV75LLAm0/видео.html - any wordpress host should work if you can install thte plugin but the deployment platform would need the ability to trigger a deploy with a url
@@colbyfayock no problem, one more thing i wanted to know that, you are using netlify as nexyjs hosting, so is the starter pack of netlify good for blog websites having around 6 to 8 thousand daily user ?

@@selvamsubramanyam you're somewhat at the mercy of the request. you can try adjusting the caching with Apollo client to work more favorably. the good news is if you use static compilation it would only be slow in development
@@techstacker5361 no real reason, i just slightly prefer Netlify personally, they're both really great tools. i like the UI a little bit better and it's also where i manage all of my work so it's in one place, but i should vary where i deploy a little bit to help show the options 🤔
i believe because it's querying via GraphQL it can take advantage of query cache with Next.js but generally speaking with static sites rebuilding an entire site over and over will be more time than serverside rendering. That said, Netlify announced Distributed Persistent Rendering which should take away any of those concerns! www.netlify.com/blog/2021/04/14/distributed-persistent-rendering-a-new-jamstack-approach-for-faster-builds/
Hey awesome stuff! I get errors when trying to npm run dev. Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0 / and some errors with node_modules / @apollo and zen-observable. I wonder If I need to install some dependencies, or if it's something up with my graphql from my wordpress site?
did you install the WPGraphQL plugin in WordPress? unless configured otherwise, you should be able to go to /graphql for your wordpress installation and see a response like this: nextwpprod.wpengine.com/graphql
@@colbyfayock Yeah, in my existing blog non-fungi.com/graphql - I wonder if I need to install graphql and apollo from the terminal, or if it's something to do with recaptcha blocking it.

For WordPress:
WP Engine is great for premium projects (a little pricier, but good service)

There are a lot of others you could use
For Front End:
I really like Netlify, it's who I generally use
Vercel who makes Next.js is also fantastic
It's a little more limited who can deploy Next.js apps but there might be a few more
Since it is statically generated doesnt that mean we have to rebuild each time we make a new post?

@@techstacker5361 no real reason, i just slightly prefer Netlify personally, they're both really great tools. i like the UI a little bit better and it's also where i manage all of my work so it's in one place, but i should vary where i deploy a little bit to help show the options 🤔
@@colbyfayock yeah it would be awesome with a small tutorial on how to deploy this frontend on Vercel as well
Love your content btw 👌
@@techstacker5361 thank you! 🙏
What if I have 500 post does netlify build will slow?
i believe because it's querying via GraphQL it can take advantage of query cache with Next.js but generally speaking with static sites rebuilding an entire site over and over will be more time than serverside rendering. That said, Netlify announced Distributed Persistent Rendering which should take away any of those concerns! www.netlify.com/blog/2021/04/14/distributed-persistent-rendering-a-new-jamstack-approach-for-faster-builds/
@@colbyfayock Thanks Colby
so cool :)
thank you!
Hey awesome stuff! I get errors when trying to npm run dev. Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0 / and some errors with node_modules / @apollo and zen-observable. I wonder If I need to install some dependencies, or if it's something up with my graphql from my wordpress site?
did you install the WPGraphQL plugin in WordPress? unless configured otherwise, you should be able to go to /graphql for your wordpress installation and see a response like this: nextwpprod.wpengine.com/graphql
@@colbyfayock Yeah, in my existing blog non-fungi.com/graphql - I wonder if I need to install graphql and apollo from the terminal, or if it's something to do with recaptcha blocking it. I was able to console log some post titles in another project I was working on...maybe I should try a fresh install of wordpress
@@colbyfayock It worked on a different wp install! Awesome stuff! thanks
@@jdubhman thats strange! if you end figuring out the issue would be curious to hear. glad you got something working though
Having the same problem as well. Now trying to install a fresh wordpress and import all existing contents there. Thank you.
Dang it! Lol I want to use this but I keep running into errors and I just don’t have the time to troubleshoot.. I’ll be back tho..
ah are you running into errors with the Starter? what issues are you seeing? let me know when you have time!
@@colbyfayock I fixed it! It was a goof on my end at first using the wrong endpoint url, then there was an issue with the use of hooks that disappeared with with a fresh install, its working perfectly now, thanks!
@@kindofadev ahh okay, glad you got it working!
may i you this template and custom for my own..?
it's licensed under MIT :) github.com/colbyfayock/next-wordpress-starter/blob/main/LICENSE
great
thanks!
anyone tried to use this repo to creatw project? 🤔
have a bunch of people who have but dont have a list ot point to any live projects beyond my 2 spacejelly.dev/ colbyfayock.com/
running into any issues or just curious?
Every time I see a template I switch the video because the creator can't explain it.
Hi, what email can I send you a business offer?
hey! you can reach me at hello@colbyfayock.com
all good 'till the "npm run dev"... getting an error saying:
Failed to fetch posts from localsite:8890/graphql: request to localsite:8890/graphql failed, reason: unable to verify the first certificate
any clue on how to start to fix it? it doesn't work with secure protocol?
Haven't seen that one before - the starter uses Apollo Client but it seems like this may be a node issue, either way unrelated to the Starter
Maybe try this? medium.com/@woeterman_94/graphql-codegen-unable-to-verify-first-certificate-87fd42638b98
@@colbyfayock already tried with no luck, maybe is just some issue in my local environment, don't bother. if I figure out how to solve it i will let you know, meanwhile keep on this amazing stuff you're doing. a big thumbs up for you mate 👍🏼
@@efestudio sounds great, np, good luck!
