Hello,
I want to run a website locally that is already live. Unfortunately I don’t have access to the remote server so I need to request everything I need from IT… I have a lot of experience in web dev, but didn’t touch WordPress since ages.
What are the steps I need to make to setup it locally and what things I need to request?
I have access to repository with Elementor theme.
My understanding is that I need to:
1. Have a local http server with PHP and MySQL (I installed MAMP)
2. Need to install WordPress in root directory.
3. Copy and paste Elementor repository to WP-content folder
4. Import live website database to local database created during installation (or change DB in WP-config)
Did I miss something or this would be all and after that everything should be running?
I want to avoid back and forth communication with IT.
Thanks!!
