Help with bootstrap on new webibsite with xampp php mysql

[PerStrand]

I outsourced the development of the framework of a website www.ufonewsclipmap.com that utilize php, mysql and googlemap and this website is up and running using xampp.

However, on dreamweaver and by accessing the site locally on chrome via /localhost/ufonewsclipmap/ it isn’t working.

I can now open /localhost/ufonewsclipmap/ home page on chrome after I changed this on the index.php file

$app = require_once __DIR__.'/core/bootstrap/app.php';

to

$app = require_once __DIR__.'/core/resources/views/front/home.blade.php';

But I can’t see graphics or the google map on /localhost/ufonewsclipmap/ home page

On my website ufonewsclipmap.com

The logo link is https://ufonewsclipmap.com/assets/logo.png

While in my desktop it is https://localhost/ufonewsclipmap/%7B%7Burl('/')%7D%7D/assets/logo.png

I think that I should change the link on index.php

require __DIR__.'/core/vendor/autoload.php'; to something else

problem with bootstrap?

Nope.

It looks like a PHP framework has been used. Personally I would get in touch with the developer to ask him how you can setup your local machine. Xamp is not what is driving the site, it is Apache

To me it looks like maybe Laravel and Blade templating, neither of which I know anything about, as you say its best to go back to the developer and ask some questions.

In days gone by this would not have happened, the set up for such a simple website would never have used a framework and templating engine. Developers these days make everything more complex than they should be for some reason.

Does your local site folder reside inside the xampp/htdocs folder?  See screenshots.  That's my recommended set-up. It's one less thing to think about.  No need to PUSH files to server each time you make changes.

In addition, turn off Real-Time Preview.
