How To Install Plugins on Local Site?

So I installed Local By Flywheel and the site is up and running. Only problem is I want to use Elementor (and perhaps a gang of other plugins) to design my portfolio website that I will show off to clients and when I click on ‘Plugins’ I don’t see the tab to ‘add a new plugin’ that you would see on the live site.

I’ve seen it on an old localhost site that I set up manually once, but it would never let me upload because of the file size, so I gave up and tried something else.

I’m just trying to install a new plugin so I can get started building sites.

I figured out what it was…when creating a new site you have to use the PREFERRED option instead of CUSTOM
