Want to change hosting, have never moved a forum or uploaded a backup

[zenBoi]

Can someone give me a guide on how I'm supposed to transfer my entire forum to a different server with cPanel.

The new host can move it for you.

Okay I just got a PM about that. Amazing, people I can trust too.

Thanks!

Btw, I've got an account on your forum, really good job man!

In cPanel just type in backup and download an entire account t backup.

Log into your new cpanel account and upload the account.

Pretty easy stuff to do yourself

That’s great, but I’d say it’s still worth learning how to do it yourself.

If you're going from cpanel to cpanel, it's really easy -- cpanel has a move feature in it.

you'll just need to update your DNS/domain name server to point to the new server IP from your registrar
