Moving To New Host?
Hello,
I am working on moving my Mysidia based pet site from one host (iPage) to another. Are there any tutorials that can teach me how to do this transition smoothly? I tried ftp all the files in my File Manager to my computer and then to the new host File Manager, and then Export the database and Import it into a new one on the new host, but it didn't work. Total newbie here, any help would be seriously appreciated! |
Well all you have to do is to back up your site(inside public_html) through FTP, and your database file through phpmyadmin, then upload the same one to your new webhost.

I tried that. I had to rename my database and users with a new password as my new host won't let me name them in the same format as before. I updated my config file to reflect the changes, but my site is showing an error =\

You dont really need to name your new database the same format as the old one. Just create new database with new username/password, put them in your config.php. Then go to phpmyadmin, and import the records from database backup.
