    hi everyone.

    i have been trying to find the easy way of taking one wordpress install on a server and moving it to my other hosts server. i have been told their is a way of moving and xml file to the new host and then just doing a fantastico new install on the host then uploading the xml file and the contains file to it.

    since this is the place that the most transfers happen i thought asking all of you how to go about this would work. just think of it as me selling a blog to myself. please help with this and thank you in advance

    You'll find the export feature in "Manage" then "Export". Export your old wordpress, then import that file in the new wordpress "Manage" then "Import".

    I think that's it :).
