Worked like a champ, EXCEPT...I've got audio files that are embedded in posts. I moved the content from one domain to another on the same server. I just moved the "audio" folder from the old site to the new one. All went well. But the url to the mp3's still shows the old domain name. I'm having to manually go through each post and change the url, then they work fine. Wish that url change plug in would change those, but I've not been able to make that happen.

I changed the permalink structure to match the orignal, but still there is a problem with all the nav, and other options linking to the right page, or finding them at all. Also, in the dashboard I found that while it showed 8 posts, there was no listing to edit them. http://www.yumafoodbank.org/wordpress Thanks for the post, but I have an issue with the files not being able to be found after they are imported.

I actually googled up info on how to do this and a lot of information out there was painful to follow. I have just moved my first wordpress blog to a new url and server for a friends blog. Having never done that before your step by step instructions where brilliant! With the plugin to change the url, I didn't seem to need that on my friends blog, all posts are showing as per her new url. Have I missed something with that please? Hi,

When you compress the XML file it becomes a gz file. Are you saying that I should import that? How will it extract? Thanks Johan Hi Thanks for sharing.
