Accessing my website

What issue or error are you experiencing? Just loaded my WP website into Local but can’t work out how to access it so I can work on it. Using methods found in Google only gets me a new WP website to work on. Thanks in advance I feel a bit embarrassed to ask!


What steps can be taken to replicate the issue? Feel free to include screenshots, videos, etc


System Details

  • Operating System (OS) and OS version:


Local Logs

Security Reminder
Local does a pretty good job of scrubbing private info from the logs and the errors it produces, however there’s always the possibility that something private can come through. Because these are public forums, always review the screenshots you are sharing to make sure there isn’t private info like passwords being displayed.

Hey @DavidP – Let’s get you taken care of!

Can you describe in a little more detail how you loaded the site into Local?

If you have a site exported as a zip file, you should be able to import it by dragging and dropping it onto Local as described in this help doc: Import/Export a WordPress Site - Local

If you did something like that already, can provide the Local Logs so we can take a closer look to see if there were any errors that Local encountered? You can get a zip of those logs by clicking the “Download Local Log” button from the “Support” tab of Local. See this help doc for more information:
