Re-writting all the links

WordPress Questions

Hello!
Right now as I’m building my website locally, all my links (media, pages, etc) end in .local
Will I have to change all the links manually to whatever url I end up adquiring?

Thanks
Dani

Hey @DaniZatt! It depends on how you move your site from Local to whatever host/server you’ll be using. A lot of migration plugins will handle search and replacements for you. Your host might also have built in tools for this. Otherwise you can use things like SSH or a plugin like Better Search Replace to clean up any URLs that don’t get updated after the site is moved!
