Localhost not in path to projects in WampServer

When you install wampserver on a pc  and you browse to localhost, when you try and click on one of your project websites WampServer takes out “localhost” from the path, so you can’t reach the site.    Annoying, you can still just open a browser and type http://localhost/projectname

 

But much better to just make it work as intended.

 

Directions:

Open up Windoes\wamp64\www\index.php

Change this line(33):

//On récupére la valeur de urlAddLocalhost

$suppress_localhost = ($wampConf[‘urlAddLocalhost’] == ‘off’ ? true : false);

 

to this:

//On récupére la valeur de urlAddLocalhost

$suppress_localhost = ($wampConf[‘urlAddLocalhost’] == ‘on’ ? true : false);

Save the file

 

Go to the wampserver icon and restart all services.  This will take care of the issue.
