Attachments missing after move to new website

#1 · September 11, 2021, 4:21 am

Forgive me if this has been posted twice, but I am not finding a post I submitted this morning about this. I have moved my forum to a new website, doing all I found in the instructions on this forum. It appeared to be ready, and I launched the new site last night. But then I got concerned about the attachments and began to look for them this morning. They don’t appear to have come with the posts. Where are they in the database, so I can move them over to the new site?

Thank you!

Hey @dcbonzfg,

the attached images can be found in /wp-content/uploads/asgarosforum

You just have to copy them to your new server and make sure that the URL is changed in the DB

Thanks so much, qualmy91. I had finally found them, moved them manually, then searched and replaced the URLs, using a plugin. After having to learn many new things, I finally have the new site up and working.
