+# Deployment Setup via IP Address
+
+## Current Setup
+- Domain: quixy.uk configured with Cloudflare proxy
+- Problem: SSH connection via domain doesn't work (Cloudflare only proxies HTTP/HTTPS)
+- Solution: Deploy directly via IP address
+
+## Docker Compose Configuration
+- Traefik currently configured with Host rule for domain
+- Need to modify to accept connections by IP address
+
+## Options to modify Traefik labels in docker-compose.yml:
+
+### Option 1: Add IP to existing rule
+```yaml
+- "traefik.http.routers.quixotic.rule=Host(`${DOMAIN:-localhost}`) || Host(`[server_IP]`)"
+```
+
+### Option 2: Remove host restriction completely
+```yaml
+- "traefik.http.routers.quixotic.rule=PathPrefix(`/`)"
+```
+
+## GitHub Actions / CI/CD
+- User will configure GitHub deployment to use direct IP address
+- SSH connection: `ssh user@[server_IP]`
+- No domain dependency for deployment process
+
+## Current Status
+- Containers are running and healthy
+- Need to update .env with DOMAIN=quixy.uk (but deployment will use IP)
+- Website will be accessible via both domain (through Cloudflare) and direct IP
