So i always put the wordpress files in a subfolder due to some reasons. This works well on a prod server and in MAMP. But since MAMP is so darn slow i want to use Local. Yet it seems that this isn’t supported? Local gives the prompt that it is unable to find the database lines in wp-config in the root. Obviously off course because it’s in a subfolder. I can get it started but it doesn;t really function properly.
Hi @YVE
You’re correct this isn’t something that would work natively with Local.
You could try something like like this, but that might be specific to sites loading under /wordpress. Running WP in a subdirectory nginx, wp-admin too many redirects - #7 by clay
Which could be similar to the Method 2 listed here: Giving WordPress Its Own Directory – Advanced Administration Handbook | Developer.WordPress.org
From our end of things, the above wouldn’t be something we’d recommend because it can lead to issues when pushing/pulling files if the remote doesn’t match the modified directory structure.
If you find any further workflows that work for you however feel free to share here!
