 * Hey guys, wazup ?
 * Let me explain everything first, my friend and I are developing a website and
   we need to use wordpress to give freedom for the people who works in the company
   change the content of the website.
 * We started to develop using a free host, we chose a template and we are changing
   it to become what they want, changing CSS, HTML, plugins, etc.
 * Now we need to change to the host the belongs to the company but we are having
   a lot of issues. We were following [this steps ](http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress)
   and at the first time the links were redirecting to the free host, after we changed
   but the images is not working and we cannot login in the wordpress, when we log
   in the screen turn blank and we cannot do nothing.
 * My question is, there is a way to do that easily?
 * Thanks

 * You need to go back through the steps in [Moving_WordPress](http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress).
   You seem to have missed at least one step.

 * Let me ask you something then, In the first step say to replace only in wp_posts
   table.. And after say to use a script for do that, but this script will change
   everything inside the database, no ?
 * But anyway, I will try everything again.. I’m since 8AM working on it and nothing.
