Support » Fixing WordPress » Migration to iPage

  • Hello, I am migrating the hosting of my blog to iPage.
    I tried to do it with Duplicator, but I had permission problems. After informing me I did the following: a new installation of wp in iPage, as it has an installation wizard, this is automatic. Then import to the database created during the installation the tables of the site that is working and replace the Content folder of the new installation with the previous one with all the content of the blog, but it does not work. I still show the new site without other content than the one that comes by default with the only entry “Hellow Word”. I do not know if I need to do something else …

    My doubts are the following:

    I do not know if the database needs to be linked in any way with the wp-content files.

    Another is that in the DB created in the installation there are tables that came by default, I added those from my previous DB but I did not eliminate those … should I do it?

    All the help is welcome I need to put it into operation and I am quite disoriented … thank you very much from now on.
