[resolved] change host, suddenly images are not redirecting to old wordpress.com blog (2 posts)

    Hi all,

    I wonder if anyone has experiences on this.

    I used to have a wordpress.com blog (shirls.wordpress.com), then i purchased own domain (shirlschong.com) and self-host my blog. So, at that time, all my images I uploaded in shirls.wordpress.com have no problem show up at shirlschong.com.

    I am not happy with my host, and decided to change to a new host. Once it is done, don't know what happen, all the URL of images changed to shirlschong.com/date/imagename.jpg, instead of the shirls.wordpress.com/files/date/imagename.jpg.

    So, all my old images in shirls.wordpress.com can't show up in shirlschong.com with the new host. I guess i could go to every single post and image to fix it. I just wonder if there is a quicker way? Or what did i do wrong during the transfer?

    Sorry for long message here. And thanks for your help in advance !

    cheers

    sorry, i eventually realised my friends who helped me to change host had made changes without informing me, hence the mess up.

    so, the issue is resolved now.
