 * Im a longtime WordPress fan and have hosted my blog through a hosting company
   in Seattle for 3 years now. This past week Ive grown tired of thier ignorance
   and have gone to a new host. What Im trying to do is import my blog from my old
   site and domain to my new site and new domain. I tried upload my saved SQL database
   and I even tried FTPing every file (which ended up going back to my old site)…
 * so my question is…how can I take my wordpress from my old site and put it in 
   my new site? Thats posts and comments. Im not really concenred about the pictures,
   Ill put them in myself if I have to
 * thanks!

 * Uploading your local copy of your blogs MySQL to your new hosts SQL server, and
   updating your wp-config.php file, should have put you on the road.
 * Don’t forget that unless you’ve transferred your domain as well, you’ll have 
   to change your blogs address and wordpress address in your database. I think 
   this is where your problem lies.
