I installed PHP 7.4 and MySQL using Homebrew. I originally configured the local WordPress site’s address to the remote one but realized I made a mistake. So, I deleted the wp-config.php and ran the installation again and pointed the site and WordPress address to the local one. They are set to http://localhost:8000. Now, the local site keeps redirecting from localhost:8000 to localhost. The Dashboard works fine but when I try to navigate to the site, it keeps redirecting to localhost.

I already tried this but it didn’t work. I also searched for other similar questions here on Stackoverflow and I found this but it doesn't have an answer that worked. I can't comment on other questions because I don't have enough reputation.

I've tried clearing Chrome's cache. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing the PHP formula and its dependencies. I've tried using Safari to load the site and it worked. I've tried disabling browser extensions. I've tried editing wp-config.php as suggested here. I also tried loading the site in an incognito Chrome browser and it worked.

  • Please add all clarification to your question by editing it – Nico Haase Jun 12 '23 at 05:33
  • There you go. I have also reported this to Google by using the Report an Issue on the browser. – Samuel Bacay Jun 12 '23 at 07:02
  • Keep in mind that 301 redirects are [cached](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9130422/how-long-do-browsers-cache-http-301s) by your browsers. Try to clear the full cache and test again – DarkBee Jun 12 '23 at 07:17
  • Do you think it's the Site Settings? I cleared the History and cache before. – Samuel Bacay Jun 12 '23 at 07:40
  • You mean that the 301 is stored in the site settings of your browser? Dunno about that, only know that doing `CTRL + F5` will not get the job done, more info [here](https://superuser.com/questions/467999/clear-301-redirect-cache-in-firefox) – DarkBee Jun 12 '23 at 07:57
  • Please provide enough code so others can better understand or reproduce the problem. – Community Jun 12 '23 at 09:12
