 * Thank you for helping. Bluehost is the new host and the name servers are pointing
   correctly.
 * Yesterday, when I changed the name of the old folder in the file manager (the
   folder that I had transferred from the old host), I was able to create a new 
   WP site that went up immediately. So, it’s not a problem with the path.
 * But it was a starter site, so I started moving all the old files into the new
   folder, thinking it would change the site, now that I had it up again. I was 
   able to get the correct theme up on the new site and kept moving the files one
   by one. Something went wrong when I moved “wp-settings.php” — the site stopped
   working.
 * So, I decided that, since I don’t know enough about php to understand why it’s
   doing that, I was willing to build the site from scratch. I have the theme and
   all the art, so that’s good. But where is the text? I can’t find the text in 
   the files. I did a search for some of the terms used on the site and nothing 
   comes up. Where does WordPress keep the text? So, I’m back to where I started.
