Hey fellow warriors,

I just transferred off my blog to my client's host. Everything went well but why does everything link back to my old domain?

Cheers,

  • Did you change the URLs in the database? You'll have to do that if it's a different domain.
  • I encountered this problem all the time when moving wordpress sites.

    You will have to go into the database and search for all entries that include your url, and they change them manually to the new url.

    If you have a lot of links and photos on the site, then it might take a while.

    In the future, create your link and photo urls to reflect the root folder and not the url. This will help your transfer to a new server.

    Hope this helps!

  • Heres a more simple solution that worked for me when transfering sites...

    Log into your dash board and go to plugins then add new.

    Do a search for search and replace

    Install it and edit the settings to search for your domain and replace with his or hers. Hit the submit button and all links back to your domain should be updated to theirs... Hope that helps.
