• I moved a site from one host to another by doing:
    – download all files via ftp
    – backup database to .sql file
    – upload files to new host
    – create database and import .sql into database
    – create a new mysql user and give access to the new database
    – update the wp-config.php file with the new database name, mysql uid/pass and host name.

    I have both sites running simultaneously (one on old host one on new). The old host has lots of formatting (css/images). The new one doesn’t have any of that formatting, outside of what came with the template stock. When I look at the rendered html code for the two pages, the new site has the letter ‘a’ in place of image names in src’s of images and in place of color codes in the css.

    Anyone seen this before or have any thoughts?

    P.S. I successfully migrated 7 other sites off this host, so I’m very confused as to why this site is such a pain.

    Thank you in advance for any advice!
