How to setup vanilla on localhost using live site backup(FTP and db back)

VanillaFan

HI...

Is any method to have modify live site backup work on localhost. I try as follows

1. Download FTP and DB backup
2. Change config.php details
   $Configuration['Database']['User'] = 'root'; $Configuration['Database']['Password'] = '';

But when i visit localhost/testsite it will be redirect to the live site

where vanilla set server path

(Creating fresh vanilla install and copy live site plugins,locales,themes will not help me..because change lot of inside the applications applications folder )
,also live site has lot of dummy data,so testing will be more easy if use live site back up db)

any Help

Maybe a custom .htaccess rule?

Post the rest of your config, blanking anything 'Secret' (including installation ID & API keys) and any passwords.

You can avoid issues of having multiple forums on the same browser.
