I finally found out the root cause of the problem. I initially installed wordpress by accessing the server directly using its IP address (when the DNS was not up and running yet). Apparently, wordpress decides to save that into its database and serves the links based on that...

I deleted the wordpress database, re-installed it by accessing the server using the host name, and voila! Everything works perfectly now!

Hi Francis,

You are right, most links in the wordpress html start with "http://92.222.75.87/..."; so that's the problem.
I'll try to get that fixed.

Many thanks for your help!

Hi there,

I looked again at the requests from the browser (chrome), and I can
see something peculiar: the requests for "/" and "/favicon.ico" have
a header "Host: incise.co"; however the other requests have a header
"Host: 92.222.75.87". That's really weird... Could that be the cause
of the problem?
Yes.

If yes, how come the browser sends the IP address
for the "Host" header, which is after all meant to allow servicing
different domains on the same IP address?
Do

curl -v http://incise.co/

which sends a http 301, so then do

curl -v https://incise.co/

and look at the returned content.

Whatever server is listening there is returning the html content with
links to things below https://92.222.75.87/

Most likely, your wordpress is configured to do that. If you can configure
your wordpress to start all internal links with "/" instead of "http",
it will probably Just Work.

Alternatively, in the nginx config that you did not show, perhaps
"proxy_set_header Host $http_host;" was not present.

Good luck with it,
