 * Hi,
 * So I’ve got my WordPress installed on a subfolder on one of my domains but I 
   just bought a new domain just for my “blog” and was wondering how to move it 
   from domain1.com/wp to domain2.com (they’re all on the same server, mine).
 * I know it doesn’t work to just copy all the files and move them to the new domain
   folder/account due to the database and such, so how do i do it, done some posting
   and stuff and wouldn’t want to re-do it all?
 * Thank you in advance 🙂

 * I had the same issue and followed those instructions. The problem I have now 
   is that I can’t get into WP-Admin. It gives me a 404 Page Not Found error.
 * Any ideas?

 * Nevermind. It turns out that the address of the new blog didn’t update in the
   database. I went into MySQL and changed it. Now it works fine.
