Moving Wordpress with All Posts to New Server

[realistic]

Hi

I am on cPanel server it’s creating a panic so i am moving to serverloft.com its offering Plesk 9.x I have wordpress blog website so how can i move my all post from my cPanel server to plesk server?

yes, cpanel and plesk is not the issue, both offer mysql database,

You just need to transfer the database correctly, and the files on new server.

Here's a solution to your question:

1. Download all files to your computer (via ftp)
2. Export the mysql database to you computer via phpmyadmin (inside cpanel)
3. Upload all files to httpdocs dir (on new server with plesk)
4. Create new database in plesk
5. Import the database file via phpmyadmin.

Do not forget to create same database user (with the same password) as it was in cpanel or create different user with different password but then change the credentials in wp-config.php file after you uploaded everything to httpdocs dir.

Ask your former host provider where you can get your website's database back up, after you back up database, import it to the host you're using now. The specific ways you can find on youtube, there are many videos about website moving after change host provider.

Take a complete backup of your database, before moving,
Take the backup of sql database and restore the same on another host
