    I’m moving my WP blog from one hosting company to another. I would like to test the site prior to changing my dns pointers.

    When I go to the site right now via the hosting companies temporary url, it redirects me to my running site at the old host with the full domain name.

    Is there a way to get around this so I can verify it’s working before flipping the switch?

    I was able to get past this by changing my local host file to point to the temp location for my domain.
