 * Hi,
    I am trying to move my wordpress.org hosted site from current domain to 
   a new domain I have set up. I have installed wordpress move on both wordpress.
   org sites (old and new) but I don’t know what to put in this field on the wordpress
   move form under settings:
 * Remote Backup Path
 * the wordpress move settings page has a suggestion of: /var/www/wp-content/plugins/
   wordpress-move/backup/
 * but I don’t know what that is. Do I use that exactly or does it vary by site?
   If it varies how do I find out what mine is?
 * can anyone help me. I need a very detailed description of how to find this as
   I am not skilled in this area.
 * Thank you so much.

 * This is just the path from the top FTP folder down to the plugin. FTP in to your
   site and drill down to get this path. If you have installed WordPress at the 
   root, the path is /wp-content/plugins//wordpress-move/backup/ folder.
