 * I need to move my WP installation from
 * **[http://science4fun.org/test](http://science4fun.org/test)**
 * to
 * **[http://science4fun.org/it](http://science4fun.org/it)**
 * on the same hosting.
 * – I copied folder **test **into folder **it**
    – I performed a back-up of the
   old db – I used [ Search and Replace for WordPress Databases Script](http://interconnectit.com/124/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/)
   as written in moving wordpress tutorial, to replace [http://science4fun.org/test](http://science4fun.org/test)
   with [http://science4fun.org/it](http://science4fun.org/it)
 * But now I found a problem. If I press on a link to a page on [http://science4fun.org/it](http://science4fun.org/it)(
   i.e. “chi siamo”) the page openend is the right page but of the wrong url ([http://science4fun.org/test](http://science4fun.org/test)).
 * The same problem occurs for article permalinks.
 * How can I do to fix the migration.
 * Thanks for the help.

 * Check that site_name and Site_url in database table ‘WP-Options’ are the updated
   folder.

 * Hi, pwhstacy. Yes I changed!
 * Now my .htaccess is
 *     ```
       # BEGIN WordPress
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /it/
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteRule . /it/index.php [L]
       </IfModule>
   
       # END WordPress
       ```
   
 * **Now is the migration complete?**
