   I changed my sites name from http://www.theideafoundation.com/site to http://www.theideafoundation.com (no site), since doing so, everything but the images from post are showing up. I made sure with media upload path reflected the new change but the content is still linked to old path which doesn't exist. Can anyone offer advice?

   Thanks,
   Josh

   Unless you've actually moved the WordPress install from that 'site' directory, then the old path still exists. Changing the site URL only doesn't change the blog-install/blog-admin URL.

   You probably also need to update your permalinks. Did you follow all the steps in this Codex guide?

   If you have access to the database you can:

   1. export a file with all your tables
   2. open it on a text edit software
   3. search for OLD SITE NAME and replace with NEW SITE NAME
   4. Import that file back into your database

   Thanks for the replies. I'm trying these suggestions one at a time and I'm not having luck. I'll continue on, but thanks for the help.
