How do I move my SMF board to a different host?

Or is it just that you have changed the domain name, and would like the forum to reflect your new address?

Same host, just different domain name.

If you have it working, then on the forum side all you have to do is change the address the forum uses, with repair_settings.php - I think....

What is repair_settings.php?

Lindy, did you resolve this problem now? repair_settings.php should have helped out with the domain name change.
