How to copy WordPress live website to Bitnami stack localhost?

It is the same procedure as going from local to live website.

Supposing that you are using a Windows Machine, when downloading a Bitnami WordPress Installer, it creates a folder in C directory and than you can overwrite all the files with the downloaded ones execpt wp-config.php,
After the phpMyAdmin installation where you must import the downloaded database and change the address URL of the website to the local one.

First step: Delete the generated database from the Bitnami WordPress Installer

Second step: Import the downloaded database from wpengine.

Third step:Login to your MySQL manager (likely phpMyAdmin) and edit the entries for

  • WordPress Address (URL)
  • Site Address (URL)

Under the wp_options table.

http://example.com  **to:** 
http://localhost/wordpress/:81 (The port number is optional)

Giving a personal recommendation regarding a local environment I would suggest working on a Linux virtual machine.

Try installing an Ubuntu OS and a LAMP stack on it.
