**Q: Detailed Description of the Problem**  
**A:** I’ve set up a local env w/ DevKinsta for AscentFunding com, specifically: staging-ascentfunding.temp927.kinsta cloud/

When I try to view the local env in a browser, it redirects to: staging-ascentfunding.temp927.kinsta cloud/wp-signup.php?new=ascentfunding.local

and gives me the error message: Greetings Network Administrator! The network currently disallows registrations. To change or disable registration go to your [Options page](https://staging-ascentfunding.temp927.kinsta.cloud/wp-admin/network/settings.php).

Registration has been disabled.

Hi @rpearson, thanks for reaching out and sorry for the issues here. This is part of a [known bug](https://community.kinsta.com/t/devkinsta-stuck-on-updating-site-urls-and-isnt-updating-site-urls/1167) that we are working on that seems to only affect Mac users.

A thorough way to fix the URLs would be to replace the kinsta.cloud URL in wp-config.php and then in the database as well. You would need to use the database manager to update the `wp_options`, `wp_sites` and `wp_blogs` tables.

You can also run a Search and Replace in MyKinsta for your staging url → your local url before pulling the site into DevKinsta. This would replace the URLs in the database for you. You may still need to update wp-config.php.

Again, sorry for the issues here but please let me know if you need help with any of this.

Kinda messy but I got it to work

Thank you for the helping me with a solution.

I know this might be a hard question, but will there be a notification of when this bug is resolved? I’m thinking I may just re-build my local env in case anything is a lil off - I replaced some of the kinsta.cloud instances - enough to make it work - but didn’t go through the entire search/replace and re-pull. Figured i’d wait till this bug is fixed.

Anyway for me to signup for an email notification or something? - sorry, i know this is a tough ask but figured it’s worth asking

No problem, yes, it’s a little messy. The records you replaced to make it work are usually enough unless you have hardcoded URLs in posts/pages or something that you also want to replace. Those would need a full database search and replace.

You’ll get a popup within DevKinsta when a new version/update is available. We’re hoping to have this fixed for the next release. You can also “watch” the [Minor Releases thread](https://community.kinsta.com/t/devkinsta-releases-minor/) by clicking on the “bell” icon on the right. This is where we announce minor releases/bugfixes.
