moving wordpress to another server

To update WordPress options with the new blog location, use the following SQL command:

UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = replace(option_value, 'http://www.old-domain.com', 'http://www.new-domain.com') WHERE option_name = 'home' OR option_name = 'siteurl';

After that you will need to fix URLs of the WordPress posts and pages, which translated from post slug, and stored in database wp_posts table as guid field. The URL values in this field are stored as absolute URLs instead of relative URLs, so it needs to be changed with the following SQL query:

UPDATE wp_posts SET guid = replace(guid, 'http://www.old-domain.com','http://www.new-domain.com');

If you have linked internally within blog posts or pages with absolute URLs, these links will point to wrong locations after you move the blog location. Use the following SQL commands to fix all internal links to own blog in all WordPress posts and pages:

UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = replace(post_content, 'http://www.old-domain.com', 'http://www.new-domain.com');

Browse through WordPress blog to check if everything is okay. You also need to re-login to WP Administration as authentication cookie has now became invalid due to different domain.

I discovered a new site http://www.websitegrader.com

that checks your site’s stats, page ranks, analyzes your site in dept and a whole lot more.

GMap_Factory.inc.php on line 22

Are you getting this error? Sorry to tell you that it doesn’t support php4. So check your hosting if they got php5.

wordpress reference

I stumbled on this site and it’s a good reference for wordpress especially with the scripts. All files are listed here, functions, classes. Check it out. It would be helpful for you

http://xref.redalt.com/wptrunk/nav.htm?_functions/index.htm

wordpress: If this file were writable you could edit it.

Error: If this file were writable you could edit it.

If you’re getting this error check the folder for wp-content and for themes and change its permission to 777 as well as it’s sub folders esp the current theme you’re using.

for references you could also check the following links:
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/115385

http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions

wordpress: The uploaded file could not be moved to

Error: The uploaded file could not be moved to

Change file permission of the upload folder and it’s subfolder to 777
and it will be fixed. Usually this happens if you transfer your blog to a new server

domain redirection

As far as SEO is concerned 301 redirect is the most effecient way of domain redirection.

Some ways of doing it:

PHP Redirect

<?
Header( “HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently” );
Header( “Location: http://www.new-url.com” );
?>

.htaccess

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
rewritecond %{http_host} ^domain.com [nc]
rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [r=301,nc]
