Transferring C5 site to BlueHost.
Permalink
Hi, I have a simple informational website I want moved from my current host to bluehost but am having problems. I'm a noob at this so bear with me please.
I copied the SQL database and uploaded it to bluehost. Does the database name, username etc need to stay the same as before?
I uploaded the site files via FTP to the public folder. Does this mean the location for the database should be / or blank or does the folder have to be specified in the site.php file?
My site has a bunch of add ons and has been customized by my host so all their logos show on the editing pages. Is it possible to transfer the site with all these changes?
Thanks!!

Here is Concrete5's instructions to move a site. http://www.concrete5.org/documentation/installation/moving_a_site/...
yes, i have seen that but it doesn't go into enough detail for a n00b like me.
ie., how to setup sql database, name, password, user profile and how does that new database name affect the transfer over to the new host and what needs to be changed in the site.php file to get it to work properly.
