admin(Mark) wrote: hi Jeff, in most cases they can transfer the files/db for you. It is best to get a full backup of your site first including home directory and full backup. Basically go to the backup page in cpanel and download them all(databases too). Once you have all those saved on your computer you will be all set no matter what happens to your files online. A simple upload of the zip file and unzipping using cpanel will restore all the files. The rest would just be to recreate the db and add the tables. Steve, a member of this site has more knowledge about this part since he does host and great too. If he sees this topic he maybe able to help you further with the steps the hosts would take to transfer the files.

websiteportals wrote: hi, cpanel moves do work fine but i would if i was you disable forums and account module unless you have some feature on your nuke site to stop signups and forum posting. becuase you dont want anyone posting or joining your site during the move and waiting for the nameservers to resolve. but like mark said make a backup becuase if something is lost or damaged you can just upload the zip and decompress either using cpanel file manager, or ask the tech to unzip for you, i say upload zip becuase unzipped its usally too big. apart from that there nothing that can go wrong. 1 minor not you will have to re edit your config.php as sometimes the username and password will change. if you need any help you can pop me a pm. or post here and either me or mark with help you many thanks Steve Posted: Tue Aug 29, 2006 10:52 am Beta Tester ~PHP Nuke User~ Posts: 70 Staff Next Group: 80 posts
