Versionpress open_proc issue

WordPress Questions

Hey guys

I’m trying to merge bd’s between Wordpress dev site using Local and a live site. I found a solution that is in beta called VersionPress and from what I can see, it solves the problem but it wont activate*
I have searched around and found that it needs “proc_open()” enabled. I’m no php wiz but I took a look at the wp_config file and can’t find it in there so I think this might be something to do with Local’s server settings.

Anyone know how to enable things like proc_open and other (I think) php settings?
I’m on windows 8.1

Thanks in advance :slight_smile:

Ok, it seems it had nothing to do with PHP functions but rather to do with the way Local works.

I re-read some of the docs and saw that Local treats each site as an individual OS and I had only installed Git on the host OS, not Local. SSH into the site and then ran spt-get install git and I now have a working Versionpress! :smiley:
