    hello i used to have my site hosted with mochahost before i got my VPS i transferred everything fine(nothing changed,same domain name and everything) but i cant get the images to show,they are in my media gallery just wont post. i didnt know it if was because mochahost didnt use localhost as host name(forgot what their name was),i was just wondering how i can find what they used and replace it with localhost?

    I’m not sure what you’re really asking here. But if you switched host, it would be a different host name – NOTE: Not all host names are localhost. Call, open a support ticket, or even look for yourself in your hosting dashboard, and maybe under (MySQL Databases, or PHPMYadmin), they probably have a different host name.

    e.x;

    000webhost (free hosting provider) – There hostnames are usually mysql1.000webhost.com thru mysql16.000webhost.com
    HostGator (paid hosting provider) – There hostnames are localhost all the time,

    again, have a look, or open a support ticket to see what your host name is, if this isn’t the problem, then again – support ticket, ask them what is wrong with the images that aren’t posting / showing up. It could be a problem on there end.
