Subject: Re: [support] Download site<br>
<br>
&gt; I have a remote site set up on Bluehost. Now I have finally got around to<br>
&gt; setting up wamp, drush etc on the local machine. What is the best way to<br>
&gt; import/download/migrate the remote site to the local server?<br>
<br>
Google for &quot;migrate Drupal&quot;:<br>
