mrilikecoding / wp-config

Created January 30, 2014 19:39

Use this wp-config.php along with a wp-local-config.php to allow you to run the wordpress site locally with your own local db configuration. The code checks to see if wp-local-config.php exists.

	<?php

	if ( file_exists( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/wp-local-config.php' ) ) {
	include( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/wp-local-config.php' );
	define( 'WP_LOCAL_DEV', true );
	} else {
	/**
