Im using corcel in my laravel local api, I can fetch wordpress data on my local wordpress site. When I try to change the settings to connect to a live wordpress site its not working. My question is, Is it possible? or do I need to make it both live in the same server since the wordpress site it on the shared hosting.
Yes, You have to put on a public server both wordpress and laravel, and connect them.

I already have a live existing wordpress site. I am trying to install wordpress locally for mac. I want to make edits of my site, but don't want my live site to look under construction. I have tried Bitnami and Local, but only see the option to create a new site and dont see a login to existing option. I appreciate any help, thank you.
Bitnami Engineer here,
You can also use the All in One WP Migration Plugin to migrate the data of your live site to the development one (this one can be the one we offer in our site: https://bitnami.com/stack/wordpress/installer). Once you test your changes, you can apply them in the live site.
You can find more information about it in our documentation
https://docs.bitnami.com/installer/how-to/migrate-wordpress/
So you want to use your live database and do the changes in your local WP installation. It's much simple if you download your live database and import on localhost and do the changes.
Anyway if you want connect to live database follow this steps
Open wp-config.php Change the following values
Database Name Database Name used by live WP
Database Username Username used to access live Database
Database Password Password used by Username to access live Database
Database Host Live MySQL Hostname don't mention localhost or 127.0.0.1.
You can get this information from your hosting provider
Also you need enable Remote MySQL.
I recently migrated my website to a hosting provider from localhost and some of the "Featured Images" on the some pages are not showing up. I went to the Chrome Console on the computer that was having this problem and saw this error:
I see that Wordpress is trying to load the image from Localhost instead of the website. My siteurl and home options are set correctly. I have already tried deleting all the plugins but that didn't help. I also tried recreating the page on the server itself and it did not help. Can you please help?
Edit: I do see the images in the Media Library, but don't see them on the page when it loads.
Try to move your db with plugin WP Migrate DB
Upload a new site to hosting, after local development, as follows:
Copy the site folder from the local server to another location.
Export the Database to the copied folder with the site.
Using the editor (the normal editor should have a search-replacement), replace all occurrences of 'localhost/your_folder' on the site and in the database on 'yoursite.com'
Upload the site and the database to the server, respectively.
I am trying to get my head around the system for a website using a Wordpress theme. I'm particularly confused at where Wordpress fits in, is it in the database, server or is it a standalone?? Here is the diagram I have made so far: Any help would be greatly appreciated.
WordPress is a content management system (CMS). It is built with php code, runs on a HTTP server, connects to a database and renders html/css/javascript to the client.
WordPress usually runs on Apache HTTP server, and connects to a mysql database though it can be configured to run on other HTTP servers and connect to other database servers (like SqlServer).
A WordPress theme is used to define rules of how to render WordPress content (entered through the WordPress admin interface) fetched from the database to the client (read browser) as HTML/CSS/JavaScript/Images. A WordPress theme follows WordPress template hierarchy for rendering different pages (You can learn more about that here: https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/template-hierarchy/)

I have a wordpress site with database. I need to migrate that site to windows azure. How to proceed with that. I don't want to create a new wordpress site. I need to migrate the existing site to azure
I have migrated the wordpress website from different server to Azure Web App using the plugin and it is easy and working for me.
Download the plugin WP Clone on your existing Wordpress site and, activate it and create a backup. You will get a url which you need to copy.
Second, you need to Create a new Wordpress site in an Azure Web App. Again, download the plugin WP Clone on your Azure Wordpress site and activate the plugin. Select restore the and paste the url link which you copied from your another Wordpress website.
Here are the general steps:
Create a new Wordpress site in an Azure Web App from the marketplace.
Transfer your content from the existing Wordpress site. This will involve using both FTP to transfer files and also doing a database backup and restore.
Setup your custom domain name in Azure when you're ready.
