I am using Windows 11. I need to install WordPress locally for education and website development. I have installed XAMPP. I am using IIS and Kestrel already with the following addresses:
* localhost for the default IIS website
* localhost:5222 for a site served by Kestrel
* localhost:82 for another personal-use site
Except I do not need SSL for any of those therefore I have not attempted to get SSL working for them.
I am hoping to use the following with Apache:
* localhost:87 for the website that XAMPP created
* localhost:88 for WordPress
* localhost:89 for a small site for whatever, it is not important
I do not know the correct terminology to describe those addresses. As best as I understand, it is not Name-based Virtual Host Support. Is there a problem using ports in that manner for hosts? I am confused because the Name-based Virtual Host Support documentation page says the following about IP-based virtual hosts:
| Quote: | | Therefore you need to have a separate IP address for each host. |
I am using a single IP address and multiple ports therefore I am not sure what part of the documentation is relevant.
The problem I am having is how to support SSL, at least for WordPress. I assume that WordPress requires SSL even for a local site. |

You should be fine with ports...
| Code: | <VirtualHost *:87>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:88>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:89>
</VirtualHost> |
