Live Link Timeout Limit

Hello! I was wondering if there is a way to increase the timeout limit for live links. After they’ve been active for several hours, the site starts to return a 404 error. If there is a way to adjust the limit for live links, it would be incredibly helpful for us.

Hi @TypingHobbit!

We don’t have a way to extend the connection limit at this time. However, if you need to keep the site up for a longer period of time there are a few other options:

  • Some hosts like Flywheel offer a free Demo site you could spin up and move your Local site there. Demo Site

  • You could have whoever you are sharing the site with download Local, and then give them a copy of the site to import themselves. Import/Export a WordPress Site - Local

  • If you eventually plan to host the site somewhere, you could move it to the host but enable privacy mode or a maintenance mode page until it’s ready for the public and then have any users who need to check it out view it from the WordPress Admin.
