Replication
Describe the steps that others can take to replicate this issue. If you have screenshots that can help clarify what is happening, please include them!
I added some codes in site.conf.hbs with the intention to make the “WP Admin” and “Open Site” buttons automatically open the https version of the domain (without me having to manually change from http to https).
The code is:
if ($http_x_forwarded_proto != “https”) {
rewrite ^(.*)$ https://DOMAIN_GOES_HERE$1 permanent;
}
I got these lines of codes from here (Redirect HTTP to HTTPS / SSL)
I forgot to change https://DOMAIN_GOES_HERE into my domain’s URL.
Now, whenever I click “WP Admin” and “Open Site” buttons, the redirect me to the wrong URL.
WP Admin button redirect me to → https://domain_goes_here/wp-admin/?localwp_auto_login=1
Open Site button redirect me to-> https://domain_goes_here/
I already tried to delete the sites and uninstall LocalWP, but the problem still stuck.

Security Reminder
Local does a pretty good job of scrubbing private info from the logs and the errors it produces, however there’s always the possibility that something private can come through. Because these are public forums, always review the screenshots you are sharing to make sure there isn’t private info like passwords being displayed.
