    I've just finished a complete backup of my database www.XXXXX.com/forum.

    I accomplished the restoration on my NEW DOMAIN www.ZZZZZ.com/forum, but everytime I visit www.ZZZZZ.com/forum it automatically redirect me to www.XXXXX.com/forum instead.

    I believe it's possible to change the corresponding domain in phpMyAdmin & editing .httaccess in vbseo correct?

    If I'm correct please show me how this is done - Thanks!

    You can search in phpmyadmin for these kind of settings. They usually deisgn the database with a url_setting table or something, and use the Search button and search for these kind of settings. Use the following to search %url% in all tables.
    This searches for the term url in the database. Also check you .htaccess file for redirecting to the root domain, it could contain a redirect to xxxxx.com when browsing the site.

    No need in dumping\restoring whole DB, just search for xxxx.com keyword and you will see like 1-2 entries in 'settings' table, simply change it
