Hi,
I'm moving hosts and accounts.. :(

is there an easy way to do this for TP, SMF , and DB's

eg: editing config files etc.. and settings to reflect where the site is now installed and called

PS: i've also got cpg installed

I need to know all the gotcha's to look out for so that whwen its moved it has full functionality again with the mimimum amount of effort and time..

ALL suggestions (apart from don't move) are welcome.. I need to know in a hurry.. moving by tuesday at the latest .. old host is closing the account where the site currently is

There are severl posts made with replyes to this question, search and read and you will know ;)

Search will bring up everything you need to know. There is also a mega thread about it here: http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=15252.0

It's actually not hard to do.

1: Export your database via phpmyadmin.
2: Download all you files from the old server.
3: Upload all files.
4: Import the old db into the new one.
5: Run repair_settings.php (Available from SMF on a search).
6: Check all your themes to make sure the paths are correct for images, etc.

Will this even edit the Downloads data in TP .. or will i have to dop that manually
Will this even edit the cpg data .. or will i have to dop that manually

eeeek... looks like their site is down :(
