• Hello everyone i’m having a bit of a problem putting my previously live website into my local host.

    Heres the exact problem
    I’m using Wamp, i put my backed up files into the www folder set up the database and fix the wp-config file to what it needs to be.

    after that i type in localhost/name the content of the website comes up but images are broken and structure is all messy.

    then when i click on a link it takes me to my previous hosting domain name.

    Here’s a small vid so ya’ll can see the problem:

    maybe that megpt01.ipage.com link has something to do with this.. if so how would i change it so that i can modify my site in my localhost?

  • Did you port your database from your live installation to your local installation?

    Yes i did, i used a plugin to back up my files and the database.

    i put the files on www fold in a folder named (anime)

    imported the SQL file into phpMyAdmin
