What is the easiest way to move a WP blog to a new domain?

LMC · 10-15-2009, 08:04 AM

Hey Guys

I was wondering, I customized a theme, made all these changes, imported modules and customized those, then I added plugins and customized those, then added posts.

Now I want all of this on a new domain name?

Can I do it?

Anybody know how?

Thanks appreciate it.

Hi there,

It's pretty simple.

Install Wordpress on the new domain

Copy the wp-content directory from the old domain to the new domain

Copy the database from the old wordpress installation to the new installation. You may need to get your webhost to hepl with this.

That's it. It's actually very easy to do!

All the best

Jason
