moving a website

Can you tell me what I need to do to move a website that I developed with webassist from one host provider to another. My main concern is the database connection.

Thanks.

you will need to export the database from the old server using PHPMyAdmin and import it to the new server. Hostgator has a tutorial for this:
http://support.hostgator.com/articles/specialized-help/technical/exporting-a-mysql-database-via-phpmyadmin

then you need to edit the connection file, change the contain information to use the the new servers information.

Uploaded everything again and that help with some of the issues but the CMS content isn't being found and the images in the CMS aren't being found.

The biggest issues are on the sub pages see PM

Plus sub pages aren't finding the templates

I'll need to troubleshoot directly, see the private message section.

The issue is that some to the site is working fine and other parts are working at all. I seems like it's finding only part of the database and CMS. Check out the pages under the Products and Solutions section (link below). I am including a link for where it was developed and where it was moved to in the PM.

Here are the errors I'm seeing:

(antronix-Products-Drop-Passives.php)

Fatal error: Call to undefined function WA_getCMSContent() in /data/0/0/89/28/89517/user/90902/htdocs/antronix/antronix-Products-Drop-Passives.php on line 91 (this is on multiple pages)

Also some of the image in the CMS are being found and some are not.

see PM
