Can not login in local machine

[tannguyen04]

I follow section "Local setup" and install successfully wordpress. But when I go to http://mysite.local/wp/wp-login.php it always redirect me to https://mysite.local/wp/wp-login.php and I can't login because my local machine not enable https. I just commented line define( 'FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true ); in web/wp-config.php and everything were worked. My question is: I did wrong or right ? If wrong please correct me. If I commented line define( 'FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true ) in web/wp-config.php, it will affect to pantheon site.

That will be cached in your browser now.

I'd highly recommend using SSL locally if you use it on Pantheon for parity. Most local apps support them and personally I use Laravel Valet for this.

You can wrap the check in a conditional so it only applies SSL to Pantheon

if ( isset( $_ENV['PANTHEON_ENVIRONMENT'] ) ){
    define( 'FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true );
}

Though setting up SSL locally is preferred. +1 for Laravel Valet. Kalabox also supports SSL and has even more parity to Pantheon.

Also make sure your .env file locally has the correct URL prefix (http or https).
