Using Duplicator with “hosts”….

Hey @rich99,

That should be correct. Sometimes you may have to also do a DNS flush from your command line when working with the hosts file. We also have a write-up here on the process:

– https://snapcreek.com/blog/wordpress/techniques/how-to-move-a-wordpress-site/
(Step 6 also covers hosts files)

Hope that helps~

Thanks cory,

it did work to a degree – using the host on my computer to test it. Its gone a bit weird, i can log on as admin, but the pages get this:

403 – Forbidden

Access to this page is forbidden.

Im having issues with SSL just to run and test it before changing the DNS…..but really weird now……

my mistake, some how i had removed the index.php file it seems

Thanks for the update!
