How to change domain and transfer server

[nayanasri]

Dear all,

I need to change the domain of my flatpress blog and transfer to another server.
I think transferring the server should be as easy as just copying the installed directory to the new server.

However, to change the domain, which files do I need to edit? Googled and didn't find any clear information.

Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
Nayana Sri Tilakaratne.

Nayana, welcome to FlatPress!

Yup, it's as easy as that.

No need to manually edit files here. Just log in to your FlatPress Admin Area under your new domain, go to "Configuration" and change the Blog URL (and maybe the Blog email).

Let us know if that worked for you!
All the best,
Arvid
