Hello so I made a site a while back and exported it. It gave me a folder named “htdocs” and an sql file with the site’s name. Can i open this website from a new computer? If so, how would i go about doing that?
Yes you can export the site whit duplicator or wpvivid. Both plugins can help you to create copys of your websites, migrate or backup.
Use local by flywheel to create a fast WordPress self host and upload the backup this is I think the fastest way to open WordPress locally on your computer
Ps you can also import manually your files and your sql if you not have adesso to the original site bat only on the copy
Install a new instance of WordPress on a server. Import the sql file into the db – overwrite the new WP database. Update the siteurl and home fields in the wp_options table.
If you have a backup of wp-content, copy those folders into your new site.
