Transferring Vbulletin database to another server using godaddy hosting?

    I am trying to transfer a vbulletin Forum from one domain and server to another domain and server using godaddy hosting. I tried following vbulletin directions by exporting the database and uploading the database to the new server but it isnt showing any of the old treads and posts. Its showing the forum page but nothing is clickable. It tries to bring me to the old domain URL for that thread or page.

    Does anyone have experience with this and could anyone give me some pointers?

    Did you update the new forum URL in the admin panel?

    you can also replicate the database from one Server to the other Server. Check out this documentation: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/replication.html

    if you made a migration from a server to another,i guess you have to change the root address in config files or in db..

    Well you missed something for sure, your database or forum files are not well imported on your new hosting.

    Also check if you missed something on config file, if there are some path's which need to be changed to match your new webost path's.

    Regards
