Is this something for a subdomain??? Could I move the current site to oldsite.leoahrens.com then be able to have leoahrens.com be something different?
I’m using godaddy.com for hosting and domain.
I tried setting up AKhighway.leoahrens.com and it asked me where I wanted to redirect that too so I said LeoAhrens.com which seems wrong cause I want to change leoarhens.com to something new…
I’m really confused now…
it’s now AK.leoahrens.com to slim it down a little but I still am very confused…
A new day, a new attempt at making this thing work!
Make a subfolder in your root folder called “oldsite” and copy all the current files and folders to that and ideally it should work.
You should be able to access using leoahrens.com/oldsite
I’m using GoDaddy for hosting.
I’m not exactly sure how or what files to move into a new file as your stated above^
When I open the ‘File Manager’ on GoDaddy there is a ‘html’ file that has these files within it; [Error Logs], cgi, wp-admin, ap-content, wp-includes.
i’m guessing the ‘html’ file is the root file that I need to move into a new file; ‘oldsite’? That seems logical but I’m having a problem creating a a new file on the same level as the ‘html’ meaning I can only create a new file within the ‘html’ folder.
That’s where I’m at right now. Hope I explained that well enough….
Called GoDaddy and got the run down!
Within my GoDaddy account they had me set up a new subdomain; AK.leoahrens.com. Inside that new subdomain I am to install a whole new WordPress site. So now I have two WordPress sites with two different logins….
AK.leoahrens.com/wp-admin
&
leoahrens.com/wp-admin.
I now have to transfer all the files from the old site to the new subdomains wordpress and then I can restart on the current domain. It’s perfect!
As much as I hate supporting big corporate companies such as GoDaddy I must say they have terrific customer service and are very easy to work with!
Problem SOLVED!
