Hi!

I have some issues with configuring Apache
I'm taking over another person's computer (mac)
and it has a blog (wordpress + php + mysql) set up (i guess it's
hosting the blog)
whenever you type in "localhost", it should take you directly to the blog
this blog is viewed within an office network

after i took over this computer, i changed the computer name
so in "Sharing" in "System Preferences", I put a new name
and even changed "OldOwner.local" to "MyName.local"

however, whenever I typed in "localhost" in the browser
it still takes me to "OldOwner.local/wordpress"

how to I fix this error so that it goes to "MyName.local/wordpress"?


Thank you so much!

you might want to check the wordpress config to see where the hostname is set to.

Thanks for your reply.
I'm not familiar with wordpress
How do I access its configuration?


Thank you~
