[resolved] Migrating from old domain to new domain (7 posts)

    Hi,

    As the topic says, what I've actually done was;
    1. Copied all the file contents from old domain to new domain.
    2. Took a back-up from old database, import it to new database.
    3. Downloaded "find and replace plugin" & tried fixing the URLS.

    I can access the new URL since I've propagated the blog properly. But, I can't access posts because each time when I click it says "404 not found".

    Can anyone advice me whether I've missed anything within the process. I really want the old file contents. Because, all themes and modification are within that.. : /

    Thank in advance.

    Is it okay, if i took the same content & back but only the URL change... or installing wordpress newly and imprting only the back-up is recommended??
