I cant be the only one who is nervous changing over so it might be a very healthy thread to have..I'm just pessimistic with this stuff..its just never quite reads right.[/quote]

I'll give you how hard it is.

If you change ISP and you can retain hdoz.org.au - Then you upload the whole shebang as is - create a Db on your "New" host and import your existing Db into that.

Open /config.php and edit the DBname, username and Password to reflect your new Db connection strings.

If you have to have a "new" DNS like [b]hdoz.org[/b] you would edit a copy of your db and search and replace ALL [b]hdoz.org.au[/b] with [b]hdoz.org[/b] - No more and no less - - No http://'s www's - - - - [b]NO Nothing.[/b]

And in the Db Dump ip_config - (if you're in the root of the public folder) "sitepath would be /

Or if you've uploaded the whole shebang to a folder the sitepath would be /WHERE-DID-YOU-PUT-IT/


Not as complicated as a Major Overhaul on a Harley - even with a sidecar...
 
 :lol:

[b]Edit:[/b]

And I would clear all the cache's of everything but the .htaccess and index.html's - Before I even uploaded it. :P
