(FYI: I know the user name is misspelled; typo upon registering)
I installed WordPress using Fantastico on a subdirectory of a site for testing purposes. After days of theme customization, I decided it would work for my purposes. So, I purchased the new domain name and followed the instructions here:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress
Since I'm moving it to the root directory of the new domain, I dumped all the files into the http://www.newdomain.com folder. Before I did that, I changed the WordPress URI and the Blog Address in the admin dashboard. When I hit 'save', it reloaded to an error page, which made sense because the admin dashboard didn't live there anymore.
However, it doesn't live at the new url either, as far as I can tell. And my http://www.newdomain.com is still showing the placeholder from when I registered it.
I browsed some other articles on how to make this change (looking for help) which lead me to open my config.php and find a list of 'authentication keys' that is linked to the 'old' domain. Now maybe that means nothing, but being that I'm not a coder at all, I don't really have any idea where to look to find the problem. Any suggestions are appreciated.
