Local WP Import – Live Site to Local

[ad_1]

Hello, I have tried to import my live site to Local WP by Flywheel with no luck. When using different plugins to export the WP files in a .zip format nothing would work, I uploaded the zip file to Local WP it started the local site importation, then after I thought everything was “done” it would give me an error stating “please try again with a compatible zip file”. I’ve also tried the manual importation and got an error stating “Failed to get current SQL modes. Reason: ERROR 2003 (HY000)”

Any help or tips would be appreciated.

  1. Make a backup of your live site with a backup plugin of your choice (like Updraft), download it locally.

    Add clean site in Local and install the same plugin.

    Restore your backup.
