- In this video, we will learn how to install WordPress on localhost using Local (the app). “Local” is a piece of software by WP Engine that has advanced features for running WordPress on localhost. It has features like Blueprints, addons, etc. to help you become more efficient with WordPress development. We will show how to download and install Local and then we will create a WordPress website on this platform. Then finally, we will run WordPress on localhost using Local.
Local also has a Connect feature that helps you make your site live when you’re ready. This is extremely helpful because after you’re done working on a localhost WordPress site, you might want to host it online. Local gives you the option to connect your localhost WordPress site to a hosting platform. Currently, WP Engine and Flywheel are the two hosting options available on Local.
Local also has an addon library from which you can install different tools to make your development a lot easier. In this video, we’ll take a brief look at these features, but mainly we will learn how you can create and manage your WordPress localhost sites with Local.

I think a series of videos using LocalWP for WordPress would be great. Thank you for this one.
Thanks for your kind suggestion. We'll try. You can contact us for any assistance with WordPress or content development: wpgiz.com/contact/
Thank you very much for making this video! I am just wondering if all plugins will work in this local environment. I am thinking of security plugins, plugins for cache and similar?
It's a test environment, so most of the plugins will work normally. But in some cases, you might need some extra work for things like SSL, email sending etc. Thank you.
Thanks
Most welcome. Please subscribe to our channel. 🙏
hello thank you for the amazing video, It was very helpful but I am having issues creating another site locally, it keeps saying "local host is requesting administrative privileges to modify your /etc/host file
please how can I rectify this , I have asked on several platforms but no solution was provided
Did you try by accepting that access request?
thank you for responding..I clicked on it but nothing popped up. I don't know what else to do @@WPGIZ
If the local is deleted from windos, the wordpress site I made would not run?
You're right. If you need more help or clarification please contact us. You'll find our contact info in our channel description. Thanks.
can i get all my local websites that I have previously built in localwp. after formatting my pc, I'm reinstalled localwp. Can one get back previously built websites by signing in to localwp???
Local has cloud feature. Once you've connected your Local to your existing cloud storage provider such as Dropbox or Google drive, Local will store all your WordPress files, folders and databases in the cloud with each backup. But if you haven't connected your Local with your cloud storage service before formatting, then your files might be lost. :(
@@WPGIZ thanks a lot ❤️🙏 could you please make a video on this topic???
@@sriparnaganguly We will try, thanks!
Couldn't run in my computer showing error of virtual discard memory please tell what is the solution of this error
Thanks for your comment. Could you please describe the problem more with the exact error message?
i'm having a problem with the database it says unable to find DB_HOST in app
Hi there! To solve this issue, first ensure that you have the default values defined in wp-config.php.
This file is by default located in C:\Users\(username)\Local Sites\(sitename)\app\public\wp-config.php
Make sure these values are defined:
define('DB_NAME', 'local');
define ('DB_USER', 'root');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'root');
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
This error is sometimes seen on older versions of Windows (Windows 7, 8). So try updating to Windows 10 or 11. If that's not possible, then try using an older version of Local WP. Thanks.
What if I can do all the steps except the last part where you log into the admin area?
When I put the username and password I made, it only refreshes the page. 💀
We think you can try the following.
1. Visit the site’s WordPress Admin login page by clicking on “Admin” beside “View Site” in Local
2. Click “Lost your password?
3. Enter either the username or e-mail of an account that you know is an admin.
◦ Note: If you created this site in Local from scratch, the default admin e-mail is dev-email@flywheel.local.
4. Go to the site’s “Utilities” tab in Local
5. Click “MailHog” or “Mailcatcher” depending on the site’s Environment
6. Find the password reset e-mail and click the link at the bottom
7. Follow the prompt to reset the password and login!

Hope it helps.
Thanks.
@@WPGIZ Thanks for the response.
I had already tried all that, and for some reason, the only thing that worked was toggling on the automatic login option.
Hello, I'm have issues login into the WP dashboard, after input the username and password it just refresh and bring me back to the same login page. Pls I need a solution to this, thanks in advance.
Try toggling the automatic login option. This solution was figured out by a viewer called elephantshrew6304. We're hoping it might work for you as well. Best wishes.

Am having the same issues logging in. It only refresh when you try logging in.

@@WPGIZ I've try it out which is works but when you set up the ssl and it sends yoi back to login, you can't login again.
After setting up SSL, there might be some browser caching issues. Could you please try from a different browser or from incognito mode? Thanks.
I created a New website but i can't entered my amin page. What is the problem?
You can add /wp-admin to the end of your site address and visit that to find the admin page.
@@WPGIZ Thank you very much for your reply. Yes, I cannot log in on this amin page. Interesting. I have tried changing the password, maybe I typed it wrong at the start, but it still didn't work.
It's really tough for us to guess the issue. Maybe you can try with a new site? Thanks.
@@WPGIZ Good idea. Thank you very much for your help.
