HELP Please...Wordpress Site Transfer

Hi, ok, first, I hope you backed up your wordpress file system via the control panel,

it is not as easy as running an SQL file, I know there are lots of people that think this is true and they will tell that too, but the sad truth is that it is not true.

The wordpress structure requires more than just an SQL file, that is only part of the over all equation.

See, there is a structure, to the data, wordpress, front end, and the data base, SQL , those two need to link up, just running an SQL file will not accomplish what you hope to do.

Moving a site is difficult but not impossible the key to your success is preparing before you start moving the files, you can do most all of the moving before you ever change your DNS,

But in your case it appears that the base wordpress file system is absent.

If you are moving WordPress from one server to another, begin by backing up your data. This includes backing up your WordPress database as well as all the core files, images, plugins, and other files on your site. See WordPress Backups and Backing Up Your Database for more details.

I dont see your wordpress file system at the URL, you posted
you should have an entire wordpress directory structure.

• cgi-bin/
• fblike.co/

You can fix your problem one of two ways:

#1 - Move all of your WordPress files that now exist at fblike.co/fblike.co/ up one level or #2 - follow these directions: Install WordPress files to a Subdirectory but Run your Blog off the Root Directory | TechCounter - TechNews, Money & SEO for running WordPress from a subdirectory.

Your problem lies in the fact that you've installed WordPress into a subdirectory (that happens to have the same name as your domain name) instead of the root directory that the site is being served from.

Your files are alive and well, you're just not using the right address to get to them. Go to fblike.com (http: // fblike.co/fblike.co/ ) and you'll see your WP front page. The styles are missing because your file paths don't take into account the subdirectory you've installed WP in.

you need to upload files in public html if you have only one site

From what I see you indeed have only one site i.e you are not sharing other websites on the server

so upload all the files into public_html on your server

You did move all your files but from what I can see you didn't upload them to the root folder of your site, but to a subdirectory. So your site is showing up as http://fblike.co/fblike.co/ but of course, that one doesn't look correct either, 'cause your database is looking for Index of /

What you need to do is go to your cpanel - File manager and open the folder for the domain Index of / Once you're there open the folder called fblike.co and select all the files there. Right click with the mouse and choose Move. Remove the last part of the path that is showing and all your files should be moved to the root folder.

Hope this helps.

Let us know if you need some additional help, I can see your files are in the sub directory, but as others mentioned you need to either move the files, or update the data in your wp config file, by appending a couple of lines in that file.

I can never get my head around this, so I outsource my wordpress transfers to a friend who charges only $10. Takes no time, the site works perfectly on the new hosting and I don't have to tear my hair out or gnash my teeth at all. It's an investment in my sanity :-)

You could also find gigs on Fiverr that do this, but I'm not so sure about sharing all my secrets (ie login details) with a stranger.

Thanks EVERYONE! That's why I was so puzzled. I moved it from a multiple site server to a direct server.

THANKS !
