Changed my primary domain name and CMSMadeSimple website has died [solved]

I have recently bought a new domain name www.loonyparty.com and have asked my host to change the primary domain from the existing www.omrlp.com to the new primary domain.
CMSMadeSimple has been installed on the original name for the last couple of years and there is a lot of content there.

I expected that the change over wouldn't be glitch free but didn't expect the catastrophic results.

Can anyone tell me how I can get the new domain to display the content of the old domain.

Thanks

Nick

Check your config.php and make sure that references to the old-domain, are referring to the new domain...

The menus on omrlp.com reference omrlp.com

As RonnyK has suggested, check your config to make sure you are referencing the correct domain name and file paths.

:) Brilliant! All I had to do was change three or four references to the old domain name to the new one in the config.php - easy. Thankyou very much you guys have made my day.
