Hi,
I have been busy moving my site to a new host (Yahoo -> HostGator), and I think I am just about there, but things are not *quite* the same and I am not sure why. My current site is here: www.dlantern.com ...and the new site is here: http://216.172.184.181/~btickler/ On first glance they seem identical, but if you watch the fonts, for example, the new site seems to show first one (default?) font, then it swaps in the final font, where the original site does not have this issue. The fonts are Google fonts I think that are part of Lifestyle 2.0. Maybe I copied the WordPress instance over incorrectly? Someone that moves sites a lot helped me; I installed a new fresh WP install on HostGator, then backed up the DB on Yahoo, then FTPed over 3 major directories from Yahoo (wp-content, wp-uploads and...wp-admin? not sure on the last one), then restored the DB on the new site, then updated Genesis to 1.7.1 and updated all the out of date plugins (which is why I left Yahoo...I could not upgrade to 3.2 because they don't support MySQL 5.x, so my WP install and all my plugins were falling out of date) and removed some Yahoo-specific plugins, and that's where I am now. Did I maybe break something in the Lifestyle theme doing it this way? I want to make sure I have not caused other unseen issues before I call Yahoo and tell them to point my domain over to HostGator... P.S. After pondering it over, I realized I also did one other thing...my old blog was installed under /blog because that how Yahoo's one-click install sets it up...for the new site I just installed WP in the home directory. Maybe somewhere some options are looking for .../blog/... or something, but I did go through the wp_options table in PHPmyadmin and fix anything that was referencing /blog already..
