Migrating WP to another host problem

    Hello.

    I am migrating a WP site to another hosting company. The guy that runs the previous hosting company told me that there was no control panel (cpanel) because that hosting was a different and special one from wordpress (I don’t really believe him). The thing is that he only shared with me a way to access the files via FTP and there is apparently no way to get a .sql or .gz database because there is no Cpanel.

    However I don’t know how to move the WP site that way. I would normally just create a backup via Phpmyadmin and then import it in the new hosting Cpanel.

    Could you PLEASE, help me figure this out? Is it possible to create a database with a WP plugin and import it via Cpanel in the NEW host?

    How can I do this migration?

    Thanks!

  • Hi,

    This might help and fix your issue; https://awordpress.net/blog/accents-in-wordpress-permalinks

    There is also a more pro plugin that costs $5 that you can install and it looks like it will fix the issue automatically. What I’m thinking is that with your old host, either your .htaccess file was mapping all accent urls properly or maybe something was setup on your host.

    Sorry, best I can see what might of stopped working and hope that either the suggested tutorial through the link above helps or the plugin itself.
