Problem

A Denver company needed it’s WordPress site moved from one hosting company to another. The commercial backup and migrate plugin (Backup Buddy) was not working. Nor did another plugin.

Solution

To accomplish the move, the database was exported from the old host and imported into the new host. Then, the many-thousand WordPress files were downloaded from the old host and uploaded to the new host. Configuration files were adjusted. Registrar DNS records were changed. Site became live on the new site.
