Website blank while running nginx and wordpress through docker - linux

Question

I've been following a tutorial to setup a website on a raspberry pi using docker.
I'm running the following in my yaml file:
version: "3.7"
services:
db:
build: ./db
container_name: db
ports:
- "3306:3306"
volumes:
- db_data:/var/lib/mysql
environment:
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: *Blocking out my password*
MYSQL_DATABASE: wordpress
MYSQL_USER: wordpress
MYSQL_PASSWORD: *Blocking out my password*
networks:
website_network:
aliases:
- wordpress
wordpress:
build: .
container_name: wordpress
ports:
- "80"
networks:
website_network:
aliases:
- wordpress
environment:
WORDPRESS_DB_HOST: db:3306
WORDPRESS_DB_USER: wordpress
WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD: *Blocking out my password*
WORDPRESS_DB_NAME: wordpress
nginx:
build: ./nginx
container_name: nginx
ports:
- "443:443"
- "80"
networks:
website_network:
aliases:
- nginx-proxy
networks:
website_network:
name: website_network
volumes:
db_data:
driver: local
name: db_data
I have some additional files which are taking the wildcard encyption files, unzipping them and running them inside the nginx container. My problem is that when I run all the containers, the website "appears" but its basically a blank screen. my code doesn't have any typos from what I can tell, so I'm a bit stuck. I think that my cointainers aren't really talking to each other anymore. The encrpyting works since the website is accessible through https:
I don't know if I can be help, but I've been stuck for about a week now and I'm at a loss. I might just find another tutorial.
Ive been trying to recheck the code, uninstalling images and reinstalling them using docker-compose prune or docker container --remove-orphans, etc. I've tried taking it down and putting it back up, building the containers first but nothing seems to help. I'm really stuck. My guess is it's something stupid and I'm just missing it.
