Prestashop transfer from Domain to Another

[ankitgala]

Hello,

 

I have a old domain ABC.net which has prestashop installed and i have another new domain ABC.in

 

I have taken SQL backup and Backup of all files on ABC.net and now i want to migrate the same to ABC.in

 

how to do and what changes are required to be done in sql database and prestashop files

 

Only the extension of the domain name is changing from .net to .in domain name is exactly the same.

You can following steps below to move your store

 

1. copy the whole store database to your new server

(use backup and restore function via database tool such as phpmyadmin)

 

2. copy the whole store folder to your new server.

 

3. make sure your new server has setup for your new domain. also make sure DNS is setup is ready to use you new domain.

 

4. log in to your back office via new domain and then change store domain and SSL domain to the new one 

- back office - Preferences - SEO & URLs.

 

If you are not able to log in to back office to the store via new domain URL, then try to modify the domain and doman_ssl in following database table.

ps_shop_url

 

5. Try to switch back and forth between for SEO friendly URL "ON" and "Off" to trigger new .htaccess to be regenerated.

 

6. It is better to clear your smarty cache
