Many thanks for a great article, just what I was looking for. You might like to add a footnote for those who use relative paths in their blogs for internal links to simply search and replace on the relative path in exactly the same manner as your search and replace method for absolute paths.
Once again many thanks, Phil at KingSolutions

There is nothing I could find on the WP codex that describes these completely essential steps of the migration process completely. Also, the MySQL commands is by far the most difficult bit to understand. Awesome stuff and thanks. I followed your steps and it works (and I understand it too).

The only issue I found was that the new site keeps trying to upload media to the old site. Is there an easy way for me to change this? Where would I look?

It’s it not necessary to do anything in database for migrate the url to another domain.

There is another way with this simple steps.

1. change Blog address and Wordpress adresse (Url) in your general settings -> safe changes

2. go to settings -> permalinks do nothing and save changes

so the blog urls been updated.

please give me a response …

I followed the above steps for moving to a new location in my server and also a new domain name. While everything works fine I am not able to login to wp admin. It takes the user p/w but gives me HTTP 403 error in internet explorer. Please help.
