Having issues with https://localhost/myWordPressSite ?

If your site is redirecting to https:// on localhost, and you’re having difficulty with :443 your localhost SSL configuration, check out the advise in the answer here.

When accessing a site on localhost, it may redirect to https:// or your software, such as WordPress, may complain that your site is not secure because there is no valid SSL configuration.

In some cases, the issue may not necessarily be with the server or WordPress configuration, but rather with the URL in the WP_OPTIONS database table. Checking the advice in the answer provided in the link can help resolve the issue. It’s recommended to ensure that the URL in the WP_OPTIONS table matches the localhost URL being used, as this can sometimes cause redirection issues. By correcting the URL in the table, the redirection issue can be resolved without the need for reconfiguring the server or WordPress.
