How to clone wordpress to local dev

wp-sync-tuts.md

In Terminal

• cd into your Dev folder
• git clone scotchbox folderName
• change ** in vagrantfile line config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.33.**" to a new two digit number
• open up hosts file (Finder -> Go -> Go To Folder - > /private/etc/hosts )
• if you don't have access to edit that, create new plaintext doc
• add new line with 192.168.33.** urlName.dev with ** being the two digit number you entered
• if you used a new plaintext doc, override/replace /private/etc/hosts with new file
• cd into Dev/folderName/public
• using wp CLI, type wp core download

In CPanel of Hosted WP Site

• Go to File Manager
• under public_html, compress wp_content
• download wp_content.zip

In Dashboard of Hosted WP Site

make sure you have WP Syncd DB

• Click Plugins on side panel
• under WP Sync DB, click Settings
• at new page, click Settings tab
• click Accept pull requests allow this database to be exported and downloaded
• copy all of the things inside of Connection Info box

In Terminal (again)

• cd into Dev/folderName
• enter command vagrant up
• It will fail and restart and that is okay

In Sequal Pro

• in opening menu, under SSH Host, change the last two to the two numbers you entered
• if you haven't set up a favorite yet and are doing it for the first time, google it
• create new db that I always call after the urlName

In Browser

• go to urlName.dev
• follow Wordpress install instructions
• I have root/root as my MySql stuff and the database is the one we just created
• leave localhost and wp_
• everything that you type in the next screen will be overridden when you sync the db so it doesn't matter
• HOWEVER!!! You will need to login once, so know your username and password!
• If you fuck up or something happens, just enter Sequal pro, drop your tables, and revist urlName.dev

In New WordPress Dashboard

• go to plugins
• install WP Sync DB
• go to WP Sync DB settings
• under the Migrate tab, choose Pull
• enter the already hosted WP's stuff you copied before (if you don't have it, just go back and get it)
• click Migrate DB

In Local folders

• navigate to Dev/folderName/public
• erase wp_content
• unzip the wp_content that you downloaded from the already hosted WP
• You will be signed out and have to sign back in WITH YOUR HOSTED WP CREDS!

That should be all!
