How to serve a finished Wordpress Website locally


I downloaded a website and its respective database from Microsoft Azure using FTP with Filezilla and I want to serve it locally. I already set the environment:

What is the next step to deploy the website? Should I copy the website folder in htdocs directory?


Solution

  • Finally I used the plugin Duplicator of Wordpress. This plugin allows me to create a full copy of a remote Wordpress site and an installer file. Once you generate these files you just have to copy them in the web server directory (or in a subdirectory like "MyWebsite") and execute the installer with your web browser going to:

    http://localhost:port/MyWebsite/installer.php
    

    I hope this is useful to someone. Cheers!
