    Hello guys,

    Maybe someone can help me...

    I have a wordpress website under account "xxx" and now I want to move this website to my account "yyy".
    Is there any way to restore an account with another username?
    Can this be done via /scripts/restorepkg?

    Please advice, thanks!

    I'm confused - can't you just copy the database and the files to the new account?

    Hi,

    I have one more solution.

    Try this one too.


    /scripts/restorepkg --newuser "Username" <Backups File name>
