Hi! So with some help from here I used the all in one WP Migration plugin to get my live site local using laragon as the WP database. It seems to have worked out except the menu is broken now. The only thing I can think it that I made the theme 3 years ago with php 7 and wordpress 5.6. I had to update these things with laragon during local installation.
I made the wordpress site helped in large to following a youtube video like 3 years ago so it may not be as robust as is desirable.
On the local site, you can hover over the top menu which is the main navigation and see where the navigation would be and it shows links to the site at the bottom left of the browser but no links are actually being shown throughout the site.
The mobile menu is fine.
I’ve tried deleting the menu and redoing it.
It all works fine live.
This leads me to another question: If I get this to work should I update my wordpress from 5.6 and my php to 8? That just makes me nervous due to these problems I’m currently having.
Thanks!
