    if you haven’t tested the gallery code in the ‘virtue’ theme, but are seeing the problem in the ‘TheCorporation’ theme, it would make more sense to ask the developers of that theme for help.

    Yes, I agree, and as you can see above, I admitted to the snafu. Unfortunately there isn’t any support forum for TheCorporation theme. Doesn’t mean it belongs here either, I just screwed up. Still, can’t solve the problem, and was hoping to find some helpful people.

    So are you having this gallery issue when you use the Virtue theme?

    -Kevin

    Well I still can’t get the Virtue theme to look right, so I have no idea if the gallery will work there. I would love to switch from TheCorporation, but tinkering in the Virtue theme, even applying it, and I still can’t get it to work the way I need it to. (I tried to host a local server offline to get it right, but was unable to get that solved through too many hours and days of wasting time trying to get it to work).

    Sorry Kevin, you are correct, I’m still WANTING to use Virtue, just can’t get it figured out. For now, I’m still stuck with Corporation.

    on your local just go to your local url /wp-admin/

    That is where you can login.

    In terms of the images that would all have to do with how you imported the content. I can’t see whats going on in terms of the code to tell you directly what the issue is.

    Unfortunately I can get there, but no idea what my username and pw are, I went through this process so many times that I have no idea. Pops up as “admin” but no idea what the pw might me.

    I’m a very lost soul LOL.

    I’ve tried going back and starting from scratch but I just get lost.

    Offline site seems to be working now, but I can’t log in to WordPress, as in, I can’t change the theme, which was all I wanted to do in the first place, change the theme and toy with it to get it right before bringing the site back online.
    There is nowhere that I can see to click on my site on the local server to log in to WordPress and change the theme.
    It’s also not correctly linked to all the pictures and thumbnails.
    I don’t know what to do here but I feel like this is a step closer…

    Apologies for the delay. Were you able to figure this out or did you decide to go another route?

    I tried, after someone mentioned the Shopp plugin was bunk, to get this going again…

    I downloaded a new backup through Duplicator after deactivating the Shopp plugin(installed long before I got here).
    Unfortunately, now something else isn’t working…

    When I go to file:///C:/xampp/htdocs/wp/ in my browser, I see the two files, one for the backup, one for the installer.

    When I click on the installer file, I get:

    Error: PHP is not running

    Duplicator requires that your web server is running PHP. Your server does not have PHP installed, or PHP is turned off.

    I don’t know what is wrong here, as I hadn’t changed any settings, and I can still get on PHPmyAdmin.

    Thoughts? I felt like we might have been making progress but I don’t know what changed!

    I looked at the other topic you created. Your problem is being caused by whatever plugin is in the “shopp” directory. It is poorly coded; no plugin written in the past three years should be using hardcoded calls to the mysql extension. The mysql extension was deprecated three years ago, and completely removed from PHP 7.0. You are either using PHP 7.x, or your XAMPP installation (correctly) set up PHP 5.x without the mysql extension.

    The only way you are going to get Duplicator (or any type of site copying plugin) to work for you is to deactivate the “shopp” plugin on your live site before doing the copy. And once your site is copied, you cannot activate the “shopp” plugin because it will result in blank pages.

    If this “shopp” plugin is supported, I would strongly suggest getting in touch with its author. Perhars there is an update available that does not use hardcoded calls to the mysql extension.

    I appreciate your help.

    you can’t just create a database on localhost and expect your site to just appear. You need the database FROM YOUR SITE! THAT IS WHERE ALL THE “DATA” IS.

    I did that. I downloaded everything from the site, first through FTP, then through Duplicator.

    I’m missing something somewhere, but it’s not the fact that you need the files hosted locally to work locally….

    I think I’ve gotten it to work, but it won’t work…

    I’m in the Duplicator: Installer, and everything looks ok.

    But when I press the Test Site button, I get this:
