Failed Transfer

  • Hello,
    I tried to transfer and old wp site from one host to a different host. The site had not been used in over a year, so before the transfer, I made sure I did all the updates of wp and plugins first. I did not build the original site, so little knowledge of the workings of this particular site.

    Now, with the new install, nothing is working. Please check it out and offer direction if you have any.

    Peace,
    Michael

    Hello Michael,

    1st you need to take a whole backup including files and DB from old server and then upload it new server. After upload into new server. You need to edit wp-config.php with new host DB information and at your DB you need to change site url and home from wp_option.

    After all this setup you can run the update of wordpress and other plugins.

    Let us know if you have still problem with wordpress setup

    Thanks for the direction but I believe I have done all the steps above, except wp_option. Where and how do I do perform this step? I would need to do this through ftp, since I can’t login to wp currently.

    Thanks for the time and effort!
