WordPress localhost site redirect to live site
You need to replace database URL and directory path while downloading database from 1 provider to other. In your case, I suspect that you have downloaded database directly, without changing URL and directory path.
You need to re-download database. You can simply use "WP Migrate DB" plugin for this. You can find it here
Let me know if you need further assistance...
open your wp-config.php file and add this
define( 'WP_SITEURL', 'http://localhost/your_wordpress_folder' ); define( 'WP_HOME', 'http://localhost/your_wordpress_folder' );then save the file from admin set the permalinks defaults and resave it with %postname%
if not work recreate your htaccess file
Hope it will work for you
Thanks
