I have someone from elance working on it right now. I’ll wait and see how he goes. Thanks very much for your offer All Fixed :dancecat:
haha I clicked on this post because I was up ALL last night doing this myself. Moved servers… It was pretty easy (after I figured out what I was doing), ran into some errors and freaked out just because its a scary thing moving a large site, but in the end mine all worked out as well. Anyway, glad it worked out for you also!
If you’re moving hosting servers – and both have cpanel setups, you can back up your entire cpanel configuration (mail, database, cronjobs, and htdocs).. and import that cpanel setup to the new one.
Most hosting companies will even offer to help migrate you to their system.
Worth checking out if you’re moving cpanel accounts.
FYI incase anyone else plans on moving servers, here is the URL I used, for copying wordpress directly to a new server, keeping my domain name the same. Very easy and strait-forward: How to migrate a WordPress site | IX Web Hosting Blog (I moved AWAY from ixwebhosting To Godaddy, I don’t recommend IX to anyone, but the Guide is good).
Also, don’t copy over the .htaccess file directly, that was where I messed up, wordpress will create a new one for you when you enable permalinks again (disable them before the backup, then re-enable them once moved).
