New Site

    I built a site for my friend on a temporary IP address on my server....IPAddress/~accountname. Now, I have pointed the domain name to my server and updated the Wordpress and Site URL. Everything seems to be working fine. If you look at the page source, it is still calling the temporary IP for all of the plugins. Is there a need to dump the database and update all URL's from the temporary IP to the main website address? I assume it will not make a difference since this is a dedicated IP address, and IPAddress/~accountname is the same as typing in the address. As long as the links are working properly, that is really what matters. I just wasn't sure if something would break down the road. I do not foresee any issues, but was wondering others opinion. Thank you.

    Note: I did just switch the site about 14 hours ago. The reason I say this is because I did another site this way, and realized that all of the links are correct when looking at the page source. So I assume that the same will happen once this resolves. Thank you.
