Site Migration

Migrating a site between servers or domains requires careful preparation to avoid downtime, broken links, or email disruption.

Steps​

  1. Backup the source website (files + database).
  2. Create the destination site in your SiteForge hosting panel.
  3. Upload files and import the database.
  4. Adjust configuration (database credentials, environment variables).
  5. Test site functionality in a staging environment before going live.

Notes​

  • Update DNS records to point to the new server.
  • Confirm SSL, forms, and email-related functions after the move.
