Title: Domain Transfer
Post by: ahycb on March 08, 2010, 08:37:21 PM
First off I wanted to say thank you from this rookie. This has been one of my best experiences of support forum.

This is the URL to my SMF that covers the local high school sports. http://siteground255.com/~stephenv/

I have my domain stephenvilleyellowjackets.com transferred over to my host now. Can someone point me to instructions on how to complete the domain name switch?

Upload repair_settings.php

What is repair_settings.php? (http://docs.simplemachines.org/index.php?topic=663.0)

Then access it using http://stephenvilleyellowjackets.com/repair_settings.php

the script should suggest new paths using the new domain for the ones that used the old url. Just click on them and they will update automatically in the text box, then click save.
