Hey there,
Sorry to see you're having problems accessing your site. There could be a few things happening here. First, you want to make sure port 443 opened when adding the SSL. I recommend using NMAP, and you can run the following command:
nmap -p443 --reason $IP_ADDRESS
Adding the --reason will usually give you some more information about what's happening. If healthygrowth.co is the domain you have an issue, I want to let you know that I checked it, and saw port 443 closed.
asilverman$ nmap -p 443 healthygrowth.co --reason
Starting Nmap 7.80 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2020-03-10 15:38 EDT
Nmap scan report for healthygrowth.co (172.104.167.9)
Host is up, received syn-ack (0.25s latency).
rDNS record for 172.104.167.9: li1758-9.members.linode.com
PORT STATE SERVICE REASON
443/tcp closed https conn-refused
Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 0.68 seconds
You should be able to open it with the following iptables command:
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
If this is not the domain, and you opened up port 443. Then it may be an issue with the domain in the Wordpress settings. Since you can't access wp-admin, I added a link to a Wordpress guide I found that will help. It explains how to change the domain from within the Linode.
Lastly, I want to let you know that Virtualmin isn't installed by default when using the Wordpress Once-click App. You will need to install it, and then you should be able to access it. The link below explains how.
