# Path showing as localhost/localhost/page.php – What? Help!

 * We are creating the site locally using MAMP. Had some issues and neither of us
   are experts in doing this, but we managed to get everything up and running again,
   except for one small snag.
 * Now the paths for the pages are linking as `localhost/localhost/about` instead
   of just `localhost/about`. In some instances it’s even `localhost/localhost/localhost/
   pagename`. Pages work here in some cases, but images are always broken. Removing
   extra ‘localhost’s reveals proper page.
 * Any idea what’s causing this? How to fix it? I’m not even sure what to search
   for to find the answer! 🙁

 * For future reference for folks, editing the general settings to have both WordPress
   Address and Site Address the same. For some reason mine had ‘localhost’ in the
   Site Address which was creating a new path.
 * Gotta love solving your own problems. 😉
