Local doesn’t include all the older WordPress versions and the themes and plugins on that site likely aren’t compatible with newer versions. In your Local app when you’re looking at the site UI what does the WordPress version say? Probably 6.2.2

Install old WordPress version

Hello, I’m trying to install an old version of WordPress, the 4.8 to be clear, but I haven’t have luck so far. I ran into this WP Nostalgia repository, but I rather ask about it before moving forward with installing unknown script files. Is this the right solution for my problem or is there a better ‘more official’ solution I can use? Thanks!
