A equipe do WPBeginner cria regularmente sites locais do WordPress em seus computadores para testar temas, plugins e funcionalidades do site sem afetar um site ativo.
O XAMPP é um pacote de software gratuito e de código aberto que fornece uma plataforma fácil de usar para configurar uma instância local do WordPress.
Neste artigo, mostraremos como criar facilmente um site local do WordPress usando o XAMPP para que você possa fazer experiências com o WordPress e refinar suas habilidades de desenvolvimento em um ambiente seguro.
Por que criar um site WordPress local?
A criação de sites locais do WordPress é uma prática comum entre desenvolvedores e proprietários de sites. Isso permite que você teste o WordPress sem criar um site real na Internet.
Os sites locais só ficam visíveis para você em seu computador. Você pode experimentar diferentes temas e plug-ins do WordPress, testar seus recursos e aprender os conceitos básicos do WordPress.
Se você já tiver um site WordPress, poderá criar uma cópia local do site no computador para experimentar novas atualizações de plug-ins antes de implementá-las no site ativo.
Importante: um site local só estará visível para você em seu computador. Se quiser criar um site ativo, você precisará de um nome de domínio e de hospedagem do WordPress.
Siga as instruções passo a passo em nosso guia sobre como iniciar um blog WordPress quando estiver pronto para criar um site ativo.
Dito isso, vamos ver como instalar o WordPress localmente no Windows, Mac ou Linux usando o XAMPP.
O que é o XAMPP?
O XAMPP é um pacote de software que inclui tudo o que você precisa para configurar um ambiente de servidor local em seu computador.
Para criar um site local do WordPress, você precisa configurar um software de servidor da Web (Apache), PHP e MySQL em seu computador.
PHP é uma linguagem de programação e MySQL é um software de gerenciamento de banco de dados. Ambos são necessários para executar o WordPress.
Instalá-los separadamente é bastante difícil para iniciantes. É aí que entra o XAMPP.
O XAMPP facilita a criação de sites WordPress localmente. Ele está disponível para computadores com Windows, Mac e Linux.
Vamos começar instalando o XAMPP e configurando-o para executar seu site local do WordPress.
Instalação do XAMPP em seu computador
Primeiro, você precisa acessar o site do XAMPP e clicar no botão “Download” para seu sistema operacional.
Dependendo do seu sistema operacional, o assistente de instalação e a interface do aplicativo podem ser diferentes das capturas de tela aqui apresentadas. Para fins deste artigo, mostraremos a versão do software para Windows.
Depois de fazer o download do XAMPP, você precisará clicar e executar o instalador.
O XAMPP perguntará onde instalar o software e quais pacotes você deseja instalar. As configurações padrão funcionarão para a maioria dos usuários. Continue clicando no botão “Next” para concluir o assistente de configuração.
Após concluir o assistente, marque a opção “iniciar o painel de controle agora” e clique no botão “Concluir”.
Isso iniciará o aplicativo do Painel de controle do XAMPP.
Usando o aplicativo XAMPP, você pode executar o servidor da Web Apache como servidor local e o MySQL como servidor de banco de dados. Vá em frente e clique no botão “Start” (Iniciar) ao lado do Apache e do MySQL.
O XAMPP agora iniciará o Apache e o MySQL.
Você poderá ver uma notificação do firewall do Windows. É importante que você clique no botão “Permitir acesso” para que ambos os aplicativos sejam executados no seu computador.
Quando os dois aplicativos forem iniciados, seus nomes serão destacados em verde.
Agora, você está pronto para criar um site local e instalar o WordPress usando o XAMPP.
Criação de um site WordPress local com o XAMPP
Primeiro, você precisará fazer o download do WordPress. Visite o site WordPress.org e clique no botão “Download WordPress”.
Depois de fazer o download do WordPress, é necessário extrair o arquivo zip e você verá uma pasta wordpress.
Você precisa copiar essa pasta.
Em seguida, vá para a pasta de instalação do XAMPP.
No Windows, será C:/Program Files/XAMPP/htdocs ou C:/Xampp/htdocs.
No Mac, será /Applications/XAMPP/htdocs.
Cole a pasta wordpress que você copiou anteriormente dentro da pasta “htdocs”.
Recomendamos renomear a pasta “wordpress” para “website” ou qualquer outro nome. Isso o ajudará a identificar facilmente seu site local.
Em seguida, você precisa abrir seu navegador da Web favorito.
Você pode inserir o seguinte URL na barra de endereços do navegador:
https://localhost/website1/
Se você renomeou a pasta WordPress para outro nome, certifique-se de substituir “website1” pelo nome da sua própria pasta.
Isso carregará o assistente de instalação do WordPress e você será solicitado a selecionar um idioma. Depois de selecionar um idioma, clique no botão “Continue” (Continuar).
Na próxima tela, você verá a tela de boas-vindas do WordPress.
Ele inclui um aviso de que o WordPress precisa de um nome de banco de dados, nome de usuário do banco de dados, senha e informações do host.
Vamos criar um banco de dados para seu site WordPress.
Você precisará abrir uma nova guia do navegador e acessar https://localhost/phpmyadmin/.
Isso iniciará o aplicativo phpMyAdmin que vem pré-instalado com o XAMPP. Ele permite que você gerencie facilmente seus bancos de dados usando uma interface mais simples.
Você precisa clicar em “Databases” (Bancos de dados) e fornecer um nome para o seu novo banco de dados. Depois disso, clique no botão “Create” (Criar) para continuar.
Agora que você criou um banco de dados, pode usá-lo em seu site WordPress.
Volte para a guia do navegador /localhost/website1/ e clique no botão “Let’s Go”.
Na próxima tela, você será solicitado a fornecer as informações do banco de dados do WordPress.
Digite o nome do banco de dados que você criou anteriormente. Seu nome de usuário é “root” e você deve deixar o campo de senha em branco. No campo host do banco de dados, você precisa usar localhost.
Quando terminar, clique no botão “Submit” (Enviar) para continuar.
Se você estiver no Windows ou no Linux, o WordPress armazenará essas configurações no arquivo de configuração do WordPress chamado wp-config.php.
No entanto, se você estiver em um Mac, ele mostrará o conteúdo do arquivo e solicitará que você o crie.
Você precisará criar esse arquivo na pasta raiz do seu site.
Depois de criar o arquivo, cole nele o texto que você copiou anteriormente. Em seguida, você precisa salvar o arquivo e voltar ao instalador do WordPress para continuar.
Na próxima etapa, o WordPress solicitará que você forneça informações sobre o seu site. Primeiro, digite o título que você deseja usar para o site.
Depois disso, é necessário inserir um nome de usuário, uma senha e um endereço de e-mail para sua conta de administrador.
Depois de preencher todas as informações, clique no botão “Install WordPress” para continuar.
O WordPress agora executará a instalação e solicitará que você faça login assim que ela for concluída.
Você pode fazer login no seu site acessando a página /localhost/website1/wp-admin e usando o nome de usuário e a senha inseridos durante a instalação.
Coisas para tentar depois de criar um site WordPress local
Agora que você criou seu site WordPress local usando o XAMPP, pode trabalhar nele como faria em um site WordPress ativo.
Vá até o menu Appearance (Aparência) na barra lateral de administração do WordPress para personalizar a aparência do seu site ou instalar um novo tema.
Aqui estão alguns ótimos temas gratuitos que você pode experimentar.
A próxima coisa que você deve tentar é instalar alguns plug-ins do WordPress.
Os plug-ins são como aplicativos para o seu site WordPress e permitem adicionar recursos interessantes, como um formulário de contato, botões de mídia social, uma loja de comércio eletrônico e muito mais.
Precisa de ajuda para instalar plug-ins? Consulte nosso guia passo a passo sobre como instalar um plug-in do WordPress.
Bônus: Como mover um site WordPress local para um servidor ativo
Depois de trabalhar em seu site local do WordPress, talvez você queira movê-lo para um servidor ativo para criar seu primeiro blog ou site do WordPress.
Para fazer isso, você precisará de um nome de domínio e de uma conta de hospedagem na Web. Normalmente, um nome de domínio custa US$ 14,99, e a hospedagem de sites começa em US$ 7,99 por mês.
Isso é demais se você estiver apenas começando.
Felizmente, a Bluehost está oferecendo aos usuários do WPBeginner um nome de domínio gratuito com um desconto generoso na hospedagem. Basicamente, você pode começar por US$ 1,99 por mês.
Para obter mais recomendações de hospedagem, dê uma olhada em nosso guia completo de hospedagem WordPress.
Depois de se inscrever para a hospedagem, você pode seguir nosso guia passo a passo sobre como mover o WordPress de um servidor local para um site ativo.
Talvez você também queira dar uma olhada em maneiras alternativas de criar sites locais do WordPress no Windows usando o Wampserver e no Mac usando o MAMP.

I have been using xampp for a long time and first time when I installed it , it was for running php code.
I have also used it for wordpress local environment for understanding and developing websites locally.
one thing that has bother me regarding wordpress installation is username and password.
why we keep user as root and password blank?
this is not the case for live servers though?
WPBeginner Support
It is not something that you would use for a live site but the username being root and the password being blank is the defaults for XAMPP. As your local site would only be active on your computer you do not need to change it for your local XMPP installation.

Sometimes I use XAMPP. The only problem I sometimes encounter is shared hosting, to which the website is migrated from localhost. The problem is that the PHP limits are not always set in the same way on the shared server, or even the PHP version does not match (on the local 8.x and on the server, for example, the old version 7.x). This can often cause a problem in the functionality of the website, which was debugged on a different PHP than the one on the server. That’s probably the only flaw.

Hi, I have used these Xampp instructions to create a server on a PC (Windows 10 Education N). Everything worked perfectly fine and it’s a very useful article. I stuck in one place because I thought the database credentials folder had to be manualy created on Windows the same way it has to be on a Mac but these steps were exclusively for Mac. Thanks a lot!

After having created the database and entered the database connection details, hitting submit gets me this message “There has been a critical error on this website”. Checked everything twice, what should I do?
Thank you for your attention.
WPBeginner Support
For a fresh install, you would want to check the error log for XAMP to help narrow down the specific reason.
Administrador
John
Error logs didn’t help. But, as it turns out, for some reason, the most recent version of Xampp caused the same “critical error” response to happen for me too. I ended up uninstalling that version and went with the previous version of Xampp and presto! It works.

I get the following error, when I run http://localhost/mysite/wp-admin/setup-config.php
One or more database tables are unavailable. The database may need to be repaired.
I tried to do global search for “WP-config” file in my xampp folder but just found “wp-config-sample”. though I added the below line in
“wp-config-sample.php” file
// define(‘WP_ALLOW_REPAIR’, true);
not really sure what to do after that.

You would want to open phpMyAdmin and run the repair on all of your tables and if that does not work you would need to reach out to XAMPP’s support

phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in your configuration and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server.

Hi
My url to login to Wordpress dashboard is coming as “/localhost/sitename/wordpress/wp-admin” whereas as per the above instructions it should be “/localhost/sitename/wp-admin” .
Would request your help to know how can I remove “wordpess” from the link.
Thanks

For that, you installed the site in a folder named WordPress, if you are just starting out you can reinstall the site without the WordPress folder.

Hello,
As always your tutorials are great. One question though. How do I make multiple localhosts using Xampp.
Think of me as a noob the this. I’ve read a few other tutorials on the subject, but it seems they assume one would have some deeper understanding of processes.

You would create a folder with a different name in the htdocs folder and follow the steps under the ‘Creating a Local WordPress Site with XAMPP’ section and navigate to the new site’s folder when you want to see the other site rather than your first site.
