In reply to: Recovering from hacked WP SiteI have resolved the redirection slightly by being able to use the define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’http://<IPADDRESS>/<SITENAME>/wp-admin/’);
in wp-config.php file, but still for some reason I can not access WP-Admin page?Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Moving WP Site – but which files?Plus, which wp-content are you referring to? www or public_html?
(Do you know why there are these two folders which appear to have same content?)

In reply to: Moving WP Site – but which files?“If you do not need to install….”
I am assuming I have to install, and would do so by using Fantastico offered in cPanel which creates installation incl DB.Current site is on http://www.domain.com, and wanted to move to new hosting provider and test before updating DNS. I know I will need to modify URLs otherwise I will be redirected, but this is fine.
Based upon an existing installation, do I still only need to move wp-content? Then also export/import DB? THen edit wp-config.php?

In reply to: Moving Word Press to new Hosting ServerThanks esmi – I would not give out this type of information but thanks for stepping in.
I decided to strip back and start from scratch.
So currently I am following http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Moving_WordPress but as I am a newbie to this world of WP I am not sure which files I need to move and where they are being moved to?

In reply to: Moving Word Press to new Hosting Server(1) When you say ‘the root’, I was told to transfer WWW and public_html contents to same location on new hosting space.
(2) I think I have updated Username/Password, but Hostname I recall to be localhost which should be fine
(3) Adding the WP_SITEURL apparently works fine (http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Editing_wp-config.php)
What worries me is that instead of going to the actual website, I get a blank page instead.

In reply to: Moving Word Press to new Hosting ServerNo it does not really help – I did see this and also looked at http://www.charleslau.com/blog/how-to-transfer-wordpress-from-one-server-to-another/.
From the link you provided it did not give me much detail around which files to move and I believe that defining WP_SITEURL will allow me to test before going live.
Any other help?

In reply to: Moving WordPressSomething else …… so I imported DB_1 into DB_2. Am I supposed to be using the DB_2 Name and then the Username/Password from DB_1?
