Local paths still in db after pushing live

What issue or error are you experiencing?

Hi - Can anyone help me confirm the complete path of a website made on Local?

I made a website using 2 different versions of the website in Local. And then I pushed the final version to a live server on namecheap. I used WP Migrate plugin and … did not think to run a search and replace to update the path(s) from the Local site to the site on namecheap.

I’ve been unable to install security software because there was an error about the path. And that’s when I realized I had not done the search and replace.

I made a guess about the paths but want to be sure I get all of it so that I don’t replace a partial path with the new server and then mess things up further.

Can someone help me confirm this?

Here’s what I have been able to see:

/Users/myuser/Local Sites/demo-website1/app/public/

/Users/myuser/Local Sites/demo-website2/app/public/

Thanks in advance!

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

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.

Hi @greenbeatty

Are you talking about replacing the URLs from your Local site to your hosted version?

In that case the search and replace would look something like

wp search-replace greenbeattysite.local greenbeattysite.com --all-tables

You could also try a plugin like this if you need:
