    Hi,

    I was wondering when creating a webpage from localwp (done on my computer), can I use this plugin (SiteGround Migrator) to migrate it from local to live (computer to Siteground hosting)?

    If not is there, is there any recommendation to migrate my webpage from my computer onto my hosting on Siteground?

    The message says: “Can not connect to SiteGround Migrator plugin at ___(https://name of my site.local/)___”
    “An error occurred while initiating the transfer, Please, check your current files and folders permissions and initiate a new transfer”

    Thanks

    Hello @pilartorrendell,

    The SiteGround Migrator plugin is not suitable for migrating WordPress sites hosted on a local environment. Instead, you should manually transfer your website to your SiteGround account by uploading the files using an FTP client (such as FileZilla, for example) and importing the database using your Site Tools -> PhpMyAdmin tool.

    You may want to check our comprehensive tutorial, which describes this process thoroughly:
