Download a site from a hosting provider

MAMP PRO can pull a site from a remote hosting provider down to your local machine via FTP or SFTP.

  1. In the Sites list, select the site (or create a new one) that should receive the downloaded content.

  2. Open the Transfer tab and fill in the remote server details (host, username, password, remote path). A full description of all available fields can be found on the Transfer › Hosting reference page.

  3. Save the site settings via File › Save or ⌘ S.

  4. Click Validity to verify that the credentials and remote path are correct.

  5. If the check passes, click Import… to start the download.

MAMP PRO copies the remote files and database into your local site folder.
