I am pretty new in WP (I came from Joomla) and I have the following problem trying to import an old WP blog (made using WP 3.5) on my local web server.
I have put the old blog foder into my www Apache directory and then I have imported the database on my local MySql DB.
After, I went into the wp_options DB table and I have change the value of the option_value field related to the rows home and siteurl putting in them the correct address (on my localhost web server)
Ok, it's seem to work fine: I can see my website and the articles on it but now I have the following problem:
if an article contain an immage I can't see this immage and if I open it in the browser appear to me the following error message: 404 Not Found
Not Found
The requested URL "/it/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Andrea-Alfieri-chef-bassa3.jpg" was not found on this server.
And in the browser address bar I have the following wrong URL:
http://www.myOldWebSite.it/it/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Andrea-Alfieri-chef-bassa3.jpg
It is wrong because it is related to the old website URL and not to my localhost website.
I think that must be some wrong settings on my database and that I have to change it but I don't know what I have to change
Can you help me? Some ideas?
Tnx
Andrea
