   Just as the title states. My old WordPress was installed onto a domain, then the domain got changed. I then re-uploaded the Blog and the database in the now domain, and the WordPress install is redirecting to the old one.
   So it was:
   http://n-tech.ismywe.com/blog/
   And now it got moved to:
   http://n-tech.ismywebsite.com/blog/
   And now it redirects to the old one. (The first link)

   Any ideas?

   Thanks,

   Have the WordPress URL and blog URL been updated on the Settings page?

   Well.. There's the problem. I can't access the wp-admin folder, due to the redirection.
   http://n-tech.ismywebsite.com/blog/wp-admin/ redirects to http://n-tech.ismywe.com/blog/wp-admin/

   You need to update all references to the old domain in the database to ensure everything is pointing to the right place.

   I usually do this with a search & replace on a database backup file, then import the edited version, but it can be done by running queries on the db.

   Here's a guide I found linked to from the codex: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/10/01/how-to-move-wordpress-blog-to-new-domain-or-location/
