In the process of moving the aushealthinfo.com blog to my new Hostgator web hosting account, I realsied that doing this sort of thing is not an easy task. It is definitly not a straight forward process to move an entire wordpress site, but I think I have done it ok.
- First I saved the sql database that was for aushealthinfo.com on my old server
- Next, I self installed the latest WordPress on my Hostgator server
- Created the SAME sql database name and user name as the ols one
- Restored the old database information to the new database
- Copied across all the plugins and uploaded images from the old server
- Then I configured the config.php file to the copied sql settings
Now all I have to do is iron out a few things that didn't quite work out as planned. But the site is up and functional.
