Hi! Studio by Wordpress is now available for Windows. 06/06/2024 💻
Thanks 😊
Local is better, free, simple, & customizable
Local straight up deleted a site of mine one time when it crashed. I didn’t know what happened until I found it in the recycling bin 😂
This is a great compariosion video. It's very new and we don't know where it goes. If there are problems like migrating to actual server then it;s a big no to use. So far no problems with using Local by Flywheel. Does it become another Gutenberg kind of useless unfinished project for coming years?
I think the lack of being able to create a blueprint on Studio is a big negative. Definitely feels like a beta.
Local is still so much better, there are a bunch of plugins that don't work. and the SQLite doesn't allow a lot of export solutions like all-in-one or wp migrate. Also their method of doing an SQL dump doesn't seem to actually work. Local is still the goto at present. the only thing Studio has going for it, is the speed of launch.
166.000 the number ot the Tuts, WordPress is going on tonight 😃
I’ve had issues when transferring a website to a real server. Studio seems to miss vital tables
Local works on Linux. My only choice.
Local for sure
Local ❤🎉
Studio gives you Sqlite while servers usually run on Mysql or others. There is a miss match there, so it will not work. I tried and faced this.
when Studio will be available for Ubuntu then we’ll check, but for now the Local is the best
Can I use image optimizer on local only, after migration, skip it?
I'm having the same issue too. I can't migrate my site from a Studio to my server
So basically you cant push to your live website on your own server or hosting of your choice from either app. Right?
Not unless you use WPEngine or Flywheel with Local. You’d still need to use a plugin like WPVivid to migrate from local to the server.
Very good video!
I use Laragon to build local.
Can you not install a plugin like all-in-one and download your site and then upload to your server?
Or does it not work like that?
It didn’t in my testing with Studio, no.
Competition is good.
LocalWP
Thanks! Can you make a comparison between locawp and xampp ?
Why not using Docer instead of Xampp ? :)
Would be great if u design local and hit a single sync button that syncs the files to the server
I agree - but, I would assume that is part of the benefit of using one of their dedicated hosting platforms that are integrated into Local.
what happens if i click the stop running, what does that mean?
@@WorkingInahanDiaries it means the local server running the site or sites will stop running and you won’t be able to access the site until you start it running again. 👍
@@WPTuts good. thanks for the immedaite revert do i have to keep it running whenever I have to show the site to others?
@@WorkingInahanDiaries yes. To be able to access the site at all it would need to be running if you’re using LocalWP.
If you upload the site to dedicated hosting in the future, that will remove the need to use Local.
@@WPTuts have you got a video migrating the site to a hosting provider?
Its still very early days for Studio and at this point is the worst its going to be. Local on the otherhand is well established and I would expect it to be ahead of the curve. Migrating using a db export and files transfer was easy for me to a live env for Studio. on Local, you can select a different sql on setup, but cannot change it after without exporting and importing again. Great vid as always!
just to add, I dont think the 'admin' username is a real issue. on migration to live, just change it! lol.
For experienced users, I would agree. But, I'd still like to see WordPress drop that and generate random usernames and passwords, not just passwords.
It seems a bit lazy imho. ;)
@@WPTuts completely agree and im sure it will come... eventually! probably some hacky way just to meet a deadline to get the product out. :D
Thanks Paul. Again a 10/10 video. What is the possibility to run a MAC OS emulator on Windows and then install Local WordPress?
Tbh, I have no idea. I've never tried running a MacOS emulator. My first thought would be that you'd still potentially see issues due to non Apple hardware being used, so you're losing the benefit of the closed architecture that seems to make using Local more stable on the Mac.
if we use vs code, the option will shows there that use vs code in open in terminal, finder and vs code
I'm sorry, that sentence makes no sense! Can you clarify what you're saying please?
@@WPTuts for me VS code option was showing
beside open in terminal
@@WPTuts like open in Finder, VS code , Terminal
For PC users, Laragon definitely
Great video from Paul as always.
But what are the benefits of a local wp compared to online such as InstaWP or other solutions.
Local means download,setup,config, update, resources, and perhaps no https?
With instawp, one can get a core wo site in no time, and change the php, wp version...on the fly.
Let's just say that I'm not moving away from InstaWP anytime soon. :)
