Moving wordpress to a new server

Moving wordpress to a new server

This blog is run by wordpress. It has been install on a ubuntu vps but it needed to be updated. Decision to move it to a yunohost server

  • Creation of a new subdomaine (kris2.talkplus.org) that will be the old blog
  • Creation of virtual host
  • sudo a2ensite domaine
  • sudo service apache2 reload

On the new server

  • change the dns A with the IP of the new server
  • wait a little
  • creation on yunhohost of kris.talkplus.org
  • Activation letsencrypt
  • Install the app wordpress for this sub domain

On the old server

  • export Tools > export xml saved somewhere
  • change the setting to https://kris2.talkplus.org

On the new server

  • import : tools import
  • install theme NIRSARG was the theme

Untill now all seems ok. It miss lot of things but it will be install after. Plugins like activitypub or other usefull. I still keep the old server to know what I need for a while then the old server will be down

I had the old editor. I never get used to the new editor. Maybe I should learn more. For example adding a picture is not as easy. I didn’t find how to do it. As least if I had html version but no I should search search search simply to add a picture. How to make things easier and in fact it is more complicated
