    Not sure I understand. You have found a new hosting company and you want information about moving your site from one server to another.

    Is this what you want do?

    What type of site is it? All html? Php? Scripts? Databases?

    A little more info from you would help some one give you a valid answer.

    ohh ok,
    I got a wordpress and I have modified the theme to use coop code, also I have added 2 files during the setup...

    of course when I will move the site to new hosting, I'll move all files, but what I am asking is: do I need to re-setup my site in coop? or just moving the files will be enough?

    Provided it's the same domain all you'll need to do is move the files and set the permissions on the ad_network text file (chmod 666 ad_network_ads_484.txt)

    I am glad that dct knew what you were talking about. I never heard of coop.

    One other comment. If you allow others to post comments or articles you may want to take the old site offline with a screen page while the dns propagates. Other wise you wind up with a database that is missing the latest entries.

    You don't need to change anything in the co-op control panel.

    Simply move the site, don't forget to chmod the text file tho.
