you using windows or mac? mamp or wamp or xampp?

What error are you getting after updating MAMP and PHP?

Ok go to phpmyadmin and thereafter go to the database you are using. There you will find a table named ‘wp_options’ click on that. You will see first two rows with the ‘option_name’ as siteurl & home. Check those values. And try adding https:// there if you haven’t added it earlier to your url. And before doing anything please do keep backup.

What changes have you done to create a sub domain?

The file that you have edited last time or if you have installed any plugin recently try deactivating theme.

Are you using Wamp server? If yes than you should do following

Run wamp server > click on green wamp icon near clock > apache > apache modules > scroll to ‘rewrite_mod’ and click it so that it is checked. Restart wamp server

save permalinks to post name again and its done.

as said by RossMitchell, use duplicator.

are you doing https://localhost/your-folder-name to access your website from browser?

remove all the empty spaces after the code in the end of the php file that you have edited last time. And also make sure in the same file you don’t have empty lines after the end of php i.e, after ‘?>’

Anytime. You can contact me for any help related to wordpress.

Ok you can be the master user, but make sure you are using separate databases for every websites. The database names will vary as per different websites. The database user can be the same for all websites

No, The database name and the directory name need not to be the same. It can vary. There will be no issue.

Try this use http
https://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin and make sure your local server is running without any issues.

It is good idea to have custom user name and password instead of default ones. But make sure you remember them.

There will be no issue while making site live. Live hosting servers always need to have custom username and passwords only.

Custom usernames and passwords are good for security also.

NOTE: In wamp server wamp/www is the root directory and if you are already using wamp/www/wordpress than wordpress is already your sub directory.

Anyway you can follow this steps to move wordpress in folders. Make sure you are using copy and not cut so that you will be having a backup if anything goes wrong.

1) Open the dashboard of your current website and install the plugin WP MIGRATE DB.
2) In the old site dashboard go to tools > Migrate DB
3) In Migrate DB page Keep the tick on ‘Save as file to your computer’ and remove tick from ‘ Compress file with gzip’.
4) In the Find tab you will be having ‘//localhost’ corresponding to it in replace box you will have to write ‘//localhost/your-folder-name’ and click export
5) Create a new database in phpmyadmin
6) copy all the wordpress files from your root folder and paste it in the new folder, it will same as you have kept in step 4 i.e, ‘your-folder-name’
7) now head on to your new folder and open the wp-config that will be in the root of your new folder and open it.
8) change the following things
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘your-new-database-name’)
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘your-database-user-name’);
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘your-database-password’);
9) generally if you have used defaults in your server then you will only be changing database name to newly create db name. By default the username will be ‘root’ and password will be empty like ”.
10) Now go to your browser and access your wordpress like https://localhost/your-new-folder-name and it should work
11) go to dashboard of new site and save permalinks again to ensure the changes in the .htaccess file.
