I have just transferred an existing site to a new hosting and done all the normal wordpress things to get it working i.e changed url and home fields in database.
Now when I click on page edit (any page) content is not displayed and I have a “busy” circle that does nothing. Also if I click on the actual theme in Appearance: Themes, nothing happens!!
Finally and more important if I click on the “enfold” menu item I get the display for front page settings and logo locations but the “save all changes” button is grayed out. Effectively none of the buttons work and the fields will not accept changes!
Any help appreciatedHi Saltdepot!
When you say you did the normal changes when moving, what exactly did you do? A simple search and replace of urls isn’t going to be enough in this case as the theme uses serialized data which is tied to the length of the domain name.
This page on the docs has a link to a plugin we always recommend and a tutorial from the tuts+ network which has more information http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/move-from-a-local-installation-to-a-live-server/
Cheers!
DevinThanks for that:
I will look at the link and hopefully solve it using the plugin. Just glad there is a logical answer.Many thanks
Many thanks for the advice to use wp migrate db.
Something that a lot of users of this plugin have encountered is knowing what the “New file path” is (we all know the domain url!)
A clever but obvious suggestion is to install the plugin on both sites because it interrogates the “current file path”
Thanks againHi!
Thank you for the info.
Did you transfer all contents including the plugins? Please watch this video on how to properly use the wp migrate db plugin: https://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/migrating-your-wordpress-database-wp-migrate-db-production-to-development–wp-32684
