Hi Alexander!
That is odd… Can you send me the link of your URL and I’ll take a look?
Thanks
Did you make sure to resave your permalinks? WP Admin > Settings > Permalinks… You might want to also double check your .htaccess file and make sure its not rewriting your URL.
Just curious, is resave permalinks a must do step to work correctly?
The video at http://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/ did not do resave permalink. I guess it can be done when the video is about 3.00min mark, at Duplicator Installer, Step 3 Test Site Important final steps>click 2. Resave Permalinks>at the permalink settings page click save changes.
In some cases you won’t have to if your directory layout hasn’t changed. In the video the WP paths were the same across the server paths, so saving the permalinks was not necessary. When you save permalinks it will write something like the following:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /mysite/mywp/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /mysite/mywp/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
However if I would have saved it in the video then it would have not messed up anything but merely rewrote the correct values based on the sites location… Basically I should probably redo the video and save it anyways because saving is the proper process.
Hope that helps!
Hello;
http://ideasensalud.com/index/
I followed the instructions in the video, but the links do not work,
I’ve tried changing the permalinks type in the old site and the new housing, but does not work in any of the ways. Which may not be the problem!
When the process finished, it says:
Errors: Deploy (0) Update (18) Warnings: (0)
Thanks!
Hey Alexander,
Update errors usually are not related to your overall site URL not working, but there is a chance that they might be… If you want to submit a ticket I can look at your errors in more detail. Please do not post any of the SQL on the forums.

Thanks Cory!
but I don’t know where I can submit a ticket
At the very bottom of this page. Be sure to include this forums link…
Thanks
No Problem… FYI It usually takes sometime before I can work on these…
Hi Cory, I met the same problem when I use duplicator to copy site to my localhost. All the contents in home page is normal but if I click on any link it’s not found.
Hey Daniel ,
