In reply to: Multiple domains, 1 wordpress siteWhen moving domain names, if you have hosting for both, use .htaccess on the old domain to redirect to a new domain using a 301 redirect. I am no expert at the htaccess stuff so here is an article that I come back to when I have this problem.

As far as moving the site url the codex can answer that. http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL
A word of advice when you change the url in the site settings it can be difficult to get back and change them to the proper one. I have ended up editing the database to correct it.
Using the wp-config.php or the functions.php method works and if you have access via ftp is great. I use these methods until I am sure everything is working then I remove them and update the settings in the database.
Also I have a Gmail account that my host redirects all the email I receive to my .com email address to my gmail. There are setting in gmail that will let any email you send out have the from blah@exampel.com instead of your gmail address.
I hope this helps.

In reply to: Embed Youtube – double videoI installed a fresh WordPress on my local server and gave this a try. I did not have any problems posting YouTube videos by pasting the URL. I did have problems with the theme handeling pages with children.
Are you useing any plugins? Have you edited the theme’s source code?
