  I have a site running just fine at http://myside.com (the “live” site)

  I want to make a copy of it on my local machine at http:/localhost/mysite

  I got it to connect to the db just fine and I can run the site.

  The problem is the links all reference the “live” site. Now I understand the actual “links” I created are hard coded in the db but what about the rest.

  Thanks
  Keith

  The blog you specified at localhost does not appear to be hosted at WordPress.com.

  This support forum is for WordPress.com hosted blogs only. If you have a self-hosted WordPress blog you need to seek help at the WordPress.org forums, not here.

  If you don’t understand the difference, you may find this information helpful.
