I can not access local wordpress from Smartphone (Error Connection Refused)

I have installed a copy of my website on localhost (use xampp for Windows) to be able to test it.

Everything is fine ... Until I want to access from another device located in the same local network (in this case from my smartphone)

The problem is this:

I type the IP of the computer where I have a copy of the web followed by the route: 192.168.1.36/copiasitioweb
The browser changes the IP to "localhost" and returns an "Error Connection Refused"
This only happens with the copy of the wordpress website that I have on site, to my other projects I can access without problem.

What can this be? Permissions? Any wrong configuration in the Wordpress configuration files?

xampp wordpress

It may be due to the configuration saved in the database. Check the table wp_options or if you put a table prefix other than wp it would be prefix_options .

There you review the option_name and option_value columns, in the option_name column review the values of siteurl and home , if the values of these are with localhost, change localhost by the ip of the machine that is running the server. For example:
