Moving Domain

Are the webspaces for domain.com and newdomain.com both on the same host?

@bledsoe, yes

I have the same question, hope someone has the answer.

Hi,

Refer this article:

Thanks,

@ Shane G, i tried the methods listed in the url, but it doesn’t seem to help in my case.

Can you tell me exactly the steps you’ve taken so far? I’m guessing it’s something like:

1. You copied all of your WP files from https://www.domain.com/blog (e.g., the wp-admin, wp-content, and wp-includes folders, etc.) to https://www.newdomain.com.
2. You made some edits to your database, attempting to replace all instances of https://www.domain.com/blog to https://www.newdomain.com.

It may help if you can provide some more details on exactly what you’ve done in step 2.

Finally, what happens right now when you attempt to go to https://www.newdomain.com/wp-login.php ? Does the login page come up? If so, what happens when you try to log in?

I tried editing the siteurl and homepage through mySQL
When I go to wp-login, i get redirected to my old IP, it means I didn’t give enough time for server update.

So by editing siteurl and homepage through mySQL, do you think it will work?

Thanks for your response.
