   you had to move domain? Or servers/hosts?

   Domain means a new name, server is a new location. What you need to do varies depending on what you actually did.

   If you just moved files to a new server, did you update your domain to point to new server. Are you using the old database, did you make a new database and export/import?

   did you follow these instructions?

   Hi,

   WordPress stores the content in database, so you have to restore your database from old server.

   Thanks,
