Faced a task, there are 2 identical sites on wordpress , one database, the only difference is that the first site has access to the Internet, and the other is deployed locally, one domain www.example.ru another example.local, as in principle can I replace links if the local version does not have access to the Internet? I try this:

 function checkURL($url){ $domain = get_bloginfo('url'); $handle = curl_init($url); curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE); /* Get the HTML or whatever is linked in $url. */ $response = curl_exec($handle); /* Check for 404 (file not found). */ $httpCode = curl_getinfo($handle, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE); if($httpCode == 404) { $url = str_replace($domain, 'example.local', $url); return $url; /* Handle 404 here. */ } else { return $url; } curl_close($handle); wp_die(); }

And I make this check for each link on the site, but the problem is that because of this the site loading time increases greatly, how can you solve it differently?

Add the following lines to the local site in the wp-config.php :

 define( 'WP_HOME', 'http://example.local' ); define( 'WP_SITEURL', 'http://example.local' );
