I just installed Local by Flywheel and I’m playing with the Blueprint functionality. I’ve made a site, installed my themes and plugins, setup my starter pages and saved it as a blueprint.

When I create a new site using this blueprint and visit the site url, it takes me to the WordPress install page. Is this the intended behavior? I feel like it is supposed to copy over the database too.

If this is not the intended behavior, does anyone know why it is doing this or how to fix it?

I’m on a Mac running High Sierra and using Local 2.3.2. Thanks!

@tylersmith,

Definitely not intended behavior!

Can you try creating a site with the Blueprint and then provide your `local-by-flywheel.log` file? Please see “[How do I retrieve Local’s log file?](https://local.getflywheel.com/community/t/how-do-i-retrieve-locals-log-file/3720)” for instructions on how to do so.
