Hi Guys,

I installed a local site but every time when I click ’ Open Site ’ or ’ WP Admin’ it redirects me to the online/live site and not the local install.

I Checked my Host file and it is 127.0.0.1

Running on MacOS Ventura 13.1

Hi @HalilFX

You may need to try clearing the cache and cookies on your browser and then closing your active sessions to start with a clean slate.

How do I clear my browser’s cache?

You may also try utilizing a different browser (Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer if you’re using Chrome for example) or an Incognito window to troubleshoot further.

The easiest way to open an Incognito window is with the keyboard shortcut combination Ctrl-Shift-N (Windows) or Command-Shift-N (macOS). Another way is to click on the menu on the upper right — it’s three vertical dots — and select New Incognito Window from the list.

Keep us posted and we’d be happy to help further if you’re still having trouble

Hi @HalilFX -

Did you make the domain of your Local site the same as your live site?

Thanks,

Sam
