How to MIGRATE CORNERSTONE - Changing the Site URL but leaving the Wordpress URL the Same

[brianbarnard]

Hi there. I am simply trying to change the Site URL, but leaving the Wordpress URL the same. When I do that, my cornerstone breaks and won’t load. SO, I’ve seen online that I need to migrate… I am using the Migrate DB plugin to migrate the site.

My site is hosting on network solutions wordpress hosting package. I cannot figure out how to get myphpadmin working? it won’t load through my network solutions admin page - I click on “Edit Database” and it doesn’t load, I’m assuming that it’s not a Unix hosting platform? AND SO, If I can’t do the phpadmin thing work on hosting server, I can’t get it to work on my Mac… I am not a programmer…

IS there a way to migrate the site, without doing the phpmyadmin thing? please help! I just want to change the site URL… the physical wordpress site is not moving.

Hi @brianbarnard,

Thanks for writing in.

I believe there is a way to migrate without using phpmyadmin however it is difficult because you are going to use a sql codes. In this case, please contact your hosting so that you could using phymyadmin or they could help you on how to fix it.

thanks for understanding.
