WordPress issues after domain change
-
I bought a new domain name and wanted to change my site from the old to the new. I updated the Site Address URL and updated the Nameservers on GoDaddy. That is all I did. The new url works. However, I have other issues – mainly I’m getting the Non-existent changeset UUID message so I can’t update any widgets or themes or templates.
- Since I didn’t update the database or anything, I figured I needed to leave the WordPress Address URL with my old domain name since the WP install didn’t change. Later I noticed that the WordPress Address URL was updated to the new domain, so it matched the Site Address URL, but I’m still getting the UUID message.
- There is no WP-options table in the database, at least not that I could find.
- The wp-config.php file has the line ‘define( ‘WP_HOME’, http://cucinaciccu.com) which is correct, but it does not have any line defining the WP_SITEURL, so I didn’t add it.
- I did not update the htaccess file as there is nothing in there with my old (or new) domain name.
- If you look at my site, the carousel/slider widget has numbers instead of arrows, but I can’t get to it to change it, and there’s a random 3 in the middle of my menus.
I think I need to update something else with my new domain name, but I’m not sure what. I’ve looked at everything listed in the articles about moving domain names, but didn’t see anything. And suggestions, pointers, advice would be greatly appreciated!
