I'm getting error "Sorry! We couldn't figure out what to do with the import file provided. Please extract it manually." If I extract the zip file the folders say the same thing. The database (db) file does the same thing. (downloaded via Updraftplus - using Local Lightning on intel Mac) What am I doing wrong?
Zac outstanding tutorial. It really helped me to get things up and running quickly by bring my live site to my local environment. Thanks and Merry Christmas!!!
Zac! I didn’t know you were with Local by Flywheel! I watched you back in Team Treehouse in 2015 (I think). Glad to see you on something I’ve started using :) Cheers!
I have LOCAL sites attached to repos which are already on my mac. I'm attempting to switch to your product, but I can't figure out or find any information on how to deal with an EXISTING local environment. Any help is appreciated.
If I create a site on Local by Flywheel, will I have to use the same username/password combo on it as I do on the webhost server to push the site from Local up to the webhost server?
Im trying to install local by flywheel and my macbook pro computer crashes. A wordpress version never loads and then when I try to click on the site I'm trying to create, I get error messages. Forbidden etc. Any suggestions?
Got a question... I have some sites that are not hosted on Flywheel. I use the All-In-One WP Migration plugin to move sites around. Can I use a backup from this plugin as the source to import a site into Local By Flywheel?
Darin Suntken this is great information to know! Up til now, I just had default WordPress template with the Migration plugin pre-installed. Knowing I can import the zipped folder right into Flywheel will save me a step.
John, lol, sorry, I spoke up way too soon. After I thought about it deeper, I tried it and it did NOT work. What I had done successfully with Local was doing the AIOWP plugin-to-plugin migration, which means you of course have to create the site first in Local, then install AIOWP, then import the backup. This works. Unfortunately the drag and drop method does not.
Hello! Flywheel team. I want to ask if I on FlyWheel While downloading the new version of PHP, it was canceled by mistake. Due to which the flywheel is not responding, it is giving an error. My website is also not opening. Please solve this problem and send me the guideline. Thank you.
Hi. By "exporting sites" i've hoped, that You mean moving the site to the web hosting (usual hosting with all stuff such as creating the databases, etc).
I'm getting an error - "Uh oh! Unable to import site. Command failed /Applications/Local.app/Contents/Resources/extraResources/lightning-services/mysql-8.0.16+5/bin/darwin/bin/mysql/local -8 -- disable-column-names -eSELECT option_value FROM wp_options WHERE option_name = 'site url'; ERROR 1146 (42SO2) at line 1: Table 'local.wp_options' doesn't exist." Any ideas? thank you. I'd love to use this software. It looks fantastic, but I have no clue how to solve this.
You can keep creating these wonderful videos. I love your enthusiasm. Thank you!

I got the same thing it's happening a year later. Did you ever figure out a solution?

Me too! Love Zac!
for some reason the export option is blured out for me why is this?
after I export the file, could I set up the wordpress exported file in the lived server in godaddy or hostgator or bluehost ??
Is it possible to select what gets uploaded? For example I want to upload the theme folder but not the media
what plugin you used to backup your website.
So an option is to make WP sites on Local by Flywheel then export them to another hosting company if we want when they are ready?
How could I import an SQL to an already configured local site?

Hey John, I use AIOWP Migration as well and I've done that a few times. I had no issues importing the backups into Local.

Darin Suntken darn! Well at least things are still made easy by the use of blueprints.

The export option for me is not active. Why might that be?
Is Local still relevant in 2023 ?
Yeah, i've not experienced ONE time where Local imported a site that easily....yet.
Thank you Darwin Nuñez lookalike!

Why do companies always give these people drugs before they make the videos?
This guy is just a little too excited about this.
Import site does not work. Absolutely useless.
Probably because this video is 4 years old. They need to update it.
bro looks like zuck
