I've added a custom domain and changed my DNS record pointing to the IP. But when I type in the custom domain in Chrome, after loading the page the address bar in chrome will change to the default public address and not showing my custom domain. Did i do anything wrong?

Can you send a screenshot of your DNS configuration?

the project id can be found in the URL: railway.app/projectid/serviceid

It looks like your root domain is pointing towards an IP, that's not the correct way of setting this up, you need to use a CNAME and not an A record and it needs to point to the domain railway provides
Railway IPs are dynamic by default so A records will naturally break over time
ok, I have an other wordpress project which is using the custom domain as well. This one is using the CNAME, I show you which one.

it's set up under a subdomain so it won't conflict
This one is fine with main page. the domain name shown correctly. but when I move to the sub-page, the domain name show the defualt address again. how can I solve this?

No problem 🙂
for the root domain, what you are saying is that I shuld use CNAME instead of A record. Is this corrent?

Exactly
I have another project which is not a wordpress. It is a licensing server which has no GUI. How can I access it using the CLI? I am using win11.

Unfortunately Railway doesn't have SSH support so you can't exactly run commands on it remotely, so there's no way to use that service via CLI
