In case of installing wp in sub directory, the wp-admin link in Local is incorrect,
WordPress have a build in rewrite to redirect to correct wp-admin if we visit siteurl.com/admin
So, I think it’s best to simply use /admin url instead if /wp-admin in local link to access admin.
Thoughts?
Are you suggesting that /admin be the default for all site types, or just network sub-directory sites?
If the former, I prefer having the default since some (poorly coded) plugins get weird when the default path is changed, and if desired, I can change it myself.
If the latter, I have no input as I haven’t tried a sub-dir network with Local yet (only sub-domain).
Not network. single site. we can install WP in sub dir.
e.g my site:
try to visit: shellcreeper.com/wp-admin
and try this shellcreeper.com/admin
(as you can see i put wp in “blog” dir and not in root )
using /admin we can let wp redirect to the right dashboard page url (?)
I hope this is clear enogh.

My apologies for the really late reply - I just saw this. Replying anyway in case someone stumbles across it.
If you are looking to change/rename /wp-admin without breaking plugin compatibility, there are plugins that let you do that. Although this plugin hasn’t been updated in 2 years, it is really easy to use and works slick: Rename wp-login.php
I’ve used it with several clients, but I have not tried it with FlyWheel yet. If you try it, you may wish to ask support if it is compatible with their control panel/automation systems.
If I misunderstood your question, I apologies.
