Guys, I don't know what to do..
I have a wordpress site in, say, http://example.com/. I want to make an exact copy of the site in the localhost (kind of mirror site). I've create mySQL database, create back-ups, copy the files in the back-ups to the localhost, etc. However, everytime I go to http://localhost/local_example, the browser redirects me to http://www.example.com/local_example. I don't know how to figure these out...
Thanks in advance for the help...

Hi,
have you checked your .htaccess file? Maybe a redirect is still there.
And in the Mysql databse you need to change in wp_options the siteurl field.
cheers

@halexblue I had the same issue and @tagging is correct. Here is a link with more details on how to do this:
