In reply to: strange DB issueOK, fixed, thanks for the replies. Somehow, the old DB wrote the new url in the rows that have it. Even the people at GoDaddy have no explanation how that could happen – like I said, I touched nothing on the old site, via FTP or on the admin panel. I’m gonna take some deep breaths now 😛
thanks again.

In reply to: strange DB issueDB details and nameserver are completely different. The thing is, I never touched a single file on the old server. Feck.

In reply to: strange DB issueI know, I screwed that up and want to start over. However, how do I get the old site to stop reading the new one? When I remove files via FTP on the new site, the old site displays the changes as well. I *so* do not want to screw up the DB.

In reply to: strange DB issueSorry, I’ll try to put this in detail.
My client asked me to moved his WP to a new host. Currently it was a subdomain. I moved the files over and was surprised to see it working on the new host after I put that code in the theme function files to point to the root directory (update_option(‘siteurl’,’http://etc’);). After I did that though, I noticed that the old site was mimicking what I was doing on the new site. Even though the hosts and servers are completely different. That’s when I started undoing what I did on the new site, including removing the files, but the old site is still displaying as the new site is, and I don’t want to lose any of the DB pages or admin panel.
I guess my question is, on the old site, the files are completely untouched. How do I get that to stop reading the new site? I would like to start the transfer from scratch, but removing files on the new site removes them from the old site – really weird.

In reply to: strange DB issueThanks for replying. Only on the new site. I didn’t touch a thing on the old site. I still have the files on my computer and can re-FTP them to the new site, but now im worried.
