All files backuped
Database exported using phpMyAdmin
Moving to Test Server
– Created Database (same name, except for mandatory prefix)
– Created DBUser (same name, except for mandatory prefix)
– imported database
– edit DataBase “wp_options” table changed “siteurl” to new test server url [option id 1]
FROMhttps://blog.picturebakery.com

UPDATED “WP-CONFIG.PHP” FILE
Changed two lines
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘NEWPREFIX_SAMEDBNAME’);
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘NEWPREFIX_SAMEUSERNAME’);
no need to change the DB_PASSWORD as it was set the same.
RESULTS
Transferred site looks and acts just like original from visitor perspective
Original: https://blog.picturebakery.com
Transferred: https://picturebakery.socalcreations.net
So Far So Good.
PROBLEM
Login screen looks fine for both admin and user login, however after logging in only the menu appears on the left of the dashboard and nothing of a dashboard or any response to any menu click (see image https://screencast.com/t/zV46GBz8pWZw)
ATTEMPTS Tried
NOTE: EVERY ATTEMPT BELOW STARTED WITH THE ABOVE STEPS REPEATED SO AS TO TRULY ISOLATE.
– Change Theme in SQL via https://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/edu/wordpress/change-theme-in-db FAILED
– Removed ALL Plugins not part of original v3.3 FAILED
– Got WP v3.3 from archive on WP.org & uploaded those FAILED
– Did a WordSearch in the SQL Backup file for
“blog.picturebakery.com”
and changed all 700+ instances to “picturebakery.socalcreations.net”
Then Imported FAILED
ALL FAILS RESULT IN THE SAME (see image https://screencast.com/t/zV46GBz8pWZw)
I am sort of out of ideas and research, so any one here with a couple of years of transferring site under them have any ideas?
Thanks

Recently, the generator no longer rebuilded my sitemap when I publish or edit a post. The option “Rebuild sitemap if you change the content of your blog” is checked. The generator was working fine before. I think this problem started after I upgraded to the latest v3.3
Manual rebuilding works fine.
Does anyone know what the problem is?

upgraded to 3.3 over the weekend (love the new drag and drop media loader, by the way! :-), and the only thing I have encountered, is that the Admin pages for my Dashboard, and Comments section, the background is all black, and not white.
Going through all the other Admin sections (Posts, Media, Links, etc.,), the backgrounds are still displaying white.
This isn’t really a big issue, as I can still see enough to do what the sections serve, as the text color is not all black itself, so am able to still read, and the body background fields are still their white selves… but is just an odd thing. And it is cross-browser, at least with the ones I have – Safari, Firefox, Chrome.
PS: I thought I could embed two screenshot images showing what i was describing, but they didn’t work
