problem migrating files from https to http mock site – how to see mock site

I used a migration/backup plugin to grab the files from a secured site to my mock up site that is not secured. Since I’m not using it for anything other than adding some functionality to it – no members, no sales of products, I didn’t think of any trouble going from https to http but now I get the old

SSL connection error
ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR
message.

All the files are on the site.

What files do I need to edit so I can see the site?

Thanks.

Since you cannot get access to the website due to a HTTP/HTTPS conflict, you need to ensures that all of the URLs for your website are up-to-date, try the following steps using the Search Replace DB tool:

1. Go and download Interconnect IT’s Database Search & Replace Script here
2. Unzip the file and drop the folder in your localhost where your WordPress is installed (the root) and rename the folder to replace (screenshot)
3. Navigate to the new folder you created in your browser (ex: http://example.com/replace) and you will see the search/replace tool
4. It should be pretty self-explanatory up to this point: enter your old URL in the search for… field and the new URL in the replace with… field

You can click the dry run button under actions to see what it will be replacing before you execute the script. Once you’re done be sure to remove the /replace/ folder.
