Wordpress problem

    Ok I had my blog set up on my proxy hosting account and decided to move it to my normal hosting as it shouldn't be on proxy hosting.

    I've designed it I just haven't put any content on yet so I decided to create a new database and uploaded the files like you would do for a new wordpress install. However there's no option to install it when i go to the domain as the page is just blank from where I removed the files on the proxy hosting.

    I just need to get the site displaying i'm not really sure how to do it I can pay $10 to anyone who can help me get it working as it's prob really simple to someone who knows what there doing. :D

    No need to pay. When you move a wordpress blog you need to

    • save the old database by exporting as sql, I use extended inserts, save the file onto your harddrive
    • create the new database on the new server
    • in phpMyAdmin on the new server - run the script/file you've just downloaded to create all your blog information
    • upload the wordpress files including your wp-config.php with the new database settings
    • download from the old server all the plugins and uploaded images and templates that are in /wp_content/
    • and upload them to the same location
    let us know if you come unstuck

    Is your domain new? Could you explain it more clearly?
