hi there. I downloaded a **backup** I had on the live flywheel platform which contains most of our building tools. From this point, I downloaded it and created a **LOCAL** site from an archive (which is the backup that was downloaded). The problem that comes this time is that when I access the **wp-admin** for the local site, it keeps redirecting me to the live flywheel site. Any ideas on how I can fix this? Regards, Jo ---

Hi Jo, Sorry for the delay! It sounds like some occurrences of the old domain wasn’t changed. To fix this I would recommend running `search-replace` with WP-CLI Here’s how you can run the search and replace with WP-CLI in Local: 1. Right-click on the site in Local 2. Go to ‘Open Site SSH’ 3. Enter `wp search-replace '//olddomain.com' '//newdomain.com'` ([olddomain.com](http://olddomain.com) being your live Flywheel domain and [newdomain.com](http://newdomain.com) being your Local site domain) 4. Done! ---

Hi Clay. Just tried your fix. Unfortunately, still not working with this code: wp search-replace ‘[pitchit.flywheelsites.com](http://pitchit.flywheelsites.com)’ ‘master-template.dev’ Any further ideas? Thank you! Regard, Jo ---

Jo, Is it only redirecting in the admin or does it on the front end as well? ---

Hi Joao, Sorry for the delay getting back to you. Does this issue persist even after disabling all plugins? ---
