I apologize in advanced for not going to great depths in this reply, but here are some pointers that should get you going in the right direction:

1. Use the Custom environment (nginx, PHP 5.6 or greater, and MySQL 5.6 are ideal) so you can edit the config files directly in the site’s `conf` folder
2. Put all of Bedrock into the site’s `app` directory. Delete the `public` directory
3. Open up the appropriate nginx.conf file and change the web root to `/app/web`
4. Change the appropriate Bedrock config file to use the following database info:
  - User: `root`
  - Password: `root`
  - Database: `local`

5. Restart the site

If you wish to set up the paths differently, you can use [https://github.com/getflywheel/local-addon-volumes](https://github.com/getflywheel/local-addon-volumes) to expose the folders to the site’s Docker container.
