For the last few day I was working on a website that I built on a server. I finished the website and I decided to backup my files and test it on localhost. I followed this guide here: /

I put all my files to htdocs, imported the database, change my domain to localhost and tweaked the wp-config file.

Now the control panel is broken, there is no css at all, half of the pages still redirects to my domain and not on localhost. I have searched for a lot answers, couldn't find none.

Any ideas?

I have not looked at the guide but chances are that it's still looking for resources from the server URL. I would start by defining in your wp-config.php file the following:

define('WP_HOME', 'YOUR_LOCAL_SITE_ADDRESS');
define('WP_SITEURL', WP_HOME);

And then do a search/replace using a plugin finding all instances of your server address by your local address.

This plugin should help you:

!!! BACKUP the database before you do any replacements !!!
