Move site from www.site1.com to www.site2.com [SOLVED]

Post by JaymeNYC »

I'm trying to move the domain to another domain. Is there anything I can read for preparing the database to be moves and also what needs to be changed after I copy the files in the ftp to the new folder?  I know the config.php file needs changes, but unsure about what else.

Only config.php changes are necessary, nothing else.
Oh, and some modules sometimes keep information about the paths to needed files in the database table that contains properties of modules. For example if you use Captcha module - you will have to login to your mysql and change the value of path to the Font files for Captcha, otherwise this module will not function.
