catacaustic on "HTML Site To Word Press Conversion ? On Links"

I move installations all the time. For me it's not a big deal, but I've got a fair bit of experience under my belt.

The biggest thing that you need to do when you move a site is to update two things:

1. Update the hard-coded links in the sites content (this tool works extremely well for that).
2. Update your .htaccess file by going into the admin area under 'Settings -> Permalinks', setting the permalink structure to 'default', and saving, then setting it back to what you have now and saving.

You're lucky in that you're keeping the site on the same server so you don't need to do anything about moving the database as well.
