literally the easiest method, i wasted hrs trying to recover the right log credentials and trying to set up bitnami and virtual box and all. This is so much cleaner, easier and simple. So glad i found this

[@davidschaal5594]

I watched this video once and then stopped and started it as I followed all the steps. Boom! I have WordPress on my computer in like 15 minutes! I loved your comments about slow internet and download times!

Thanks very much. Works very well. BUT be sure to disable some plugin's before backing up an online copy for local use. Hostgator's plugin which is automatically installed and ACTIVATED on new sites really screws up your local WP install!!! 😫

[@abrahaminiobong1937]

Excellent work. Bravo! Help! I have a little question that needs clarity. I intend designing WordPress website for clients locally. How do I create it for different clients? Does it mean for every new WordPress project, I must download a new install WordPress locally? Please help me out.

[@davidschaal5594]

Go to Local and click the + in a circle and then add another site! Yes, it looks like a new install of WP. I think this is the way WP works.

[@nastarankianersi104]

Thanks for the video. I'm here in Feb 2024. The Local app has been updated, and I've had trouble setting it up. You might have to downgrade the PHP version that Local uses to version 7.4 and add the site again.

[@JonNewlyn]

Thank you for this. But I got an error when creating the first website - "Local ran into an EPERM error when trying to update the hosts file" what file is it talking about?

[@BrainstormForce]

Hi Jon, seems like this might be to do with your Anti Virus. You could try adding Local to the list of trusted applications within your Anti Virus and see if that works. You can read more here: community.localwp.com/t/local-ran-into-eperm-error/6602

[@adaezekalu4738]

please can someone help me. The wordpress is not logging me in to the admin. It just refreshes. It's not sending me reset password to my email either. But if I input wrong password or username, it highlights.

Hi, great video. Thanks. Can I use Local parallelly with Binami WordPress on my laptop>? or shall I remove Bitnami before installing Local?

[@BrainstormForce]

yes, you can use Local parallelly with Bitnami.

[@sunilkirloskar3499]

@@BrainstormForce thanks bro. I like your videos.

[@sunilkirloskar3499]

@@BrainstormForce One doubt.. I wanted to transfer my articles from Binami to Local. But I am unable to transfer any of my files from Bitnami to local (both local hosts). So between two local hosts, is the transfer of files (export-import) not possible? or if it is, what would be the procedure?Thanks Bro

[@ericphilip]

Is there a way I can share the site with someone to make changes on their computer? The available option for sharing a live link does not allow them to edit. Kindly advise. Thanks!

[@BrainstormForce]

You can use this option: tastewp.com/

[@wormholeinteractive]

How would you go about connecting this local site to an FTP server like filezilla?

[@BrainstormForce]

Yes, you can connect the local site to an FTP server with FileZilla. Please check our blog here for more details wpastra.com/resources/best-ftp-clients/

6:20 no link above 😥

[@hurleymediatv]

You lost me at 1:41… I have none of the options in your menu. You fast forwarded to Local already being installed. Then you get a popup for “local-6.2.1-windows.exe”. It’s already installed??? Once I got past that part, it went okay. The first install of Local didn’t work. I had to turn off my antivirus, and then it did install correctly. Once installed, the sample page loads, but I cannot log into the WP Admin. I’ve re-installed twice, triple checked user/pass, and I cannot log in. Anyone have any advice? Also, it looks like Local needs Internet connectivity. Why is this, when it’s running local? Do you need WordPress installed first? Is WordPress installed during the Local install? WordPress download has no exe file, so I don’t understand how to install it… Sorry, but a newbie to WordPress here.

[@miguelmantey6901]

Dear Brainstorm Force kindly do a video on how to host on WAMP OR XAMP

[@BrainstormForce]

Thanks for the request, Miguel! We will try and publish a video on that in the future

[@miguelmantey6901]

Dear Brainstorm Force: If i am using a paid theme and i use locally to host this theme when my online host is ready and i host the same theme online what will happen ? will one be destroyed?

[@BrainstormForce]

Hi Miguel, no, your local and live website will work as expected and one will not be destroyed. Simply, you would need to migrate the files from your local to live environment. If you want to learn how to move your website from Local to your online host, we have a tutorial for that too: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpCrln9jm7CLntE Do get in touch with your hosting provider, they usually help in the import process.
