Migrated to Flywheel, still redirects to local url

Support
1

I’ve exported my site from Local onto Flywheel, but it’s useless because it redirects to Local by Flywheel’s .dev url.

I’ve tried removing the redirect from wp-config and I’ve deleted my HOST files.

Hey Sarah,

Prior to migrating/deploying you need to make sure you do a find and replace of the .dev domain and change it to the live domain. Once we have official deployment functionality this will be taken care of automatically. :smiley:

Also, if you deleted your /etc/hosts file please restore it or you can run into issues with your computer.

If you’d like, please provide the e-mail of your Flywheel account and the site name you just migrated and I can fix the URL for you. Feel free to PM me those details.

Thanks Clay, I made the changes in the .mysql file and replaced the database files, but I couldn’t find any instance of it in any other files. Now I’m able to navigate to the admin dashboard but when I try to view the site it still redirects. Can you suggest what files I should be checking? Nothing is coming up when I search.

Can you please e-mail me at clay@getflywheel.com or private message me your Flywheel site information so I can take a look?

I’m experiencing the same issue.
I’ll email Clay and the help line in general.
