HI

I have installed wamp on local server as virtual host.

However, I do experience that plugins in WordPress do not communicate with web pages on the internet.


How do I get this local installation to communicate with the internet?

Hi,

Have you installed WordPress in a VirtualHost?

And did this VirtualHost exist BEFORE you installed Wordpress?

See :
The need for Virtual Host
and
Wampserver 3 - Create or add a VirtualHost
and
Why to create a VirtualHost BEFORE installing a CMS
