Twenty Eleven custom header image wrong url

  • Hello everyone.

    I recently changed my hosted site from one domain to another. I did this with the support of my hosting company and it all went smoothly. I had to wait a few hours for the site to change and then I found the problem I’m having now.

    I had uploaded some custom header images and now the images are 404ing. When I checked what url it was trying to open, it was still trying to open

    oldsitename.com/apps/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/image.jpg

    when it should be going to

    newsitename.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/image.jpg

    My problem is that I can’t find where it is being told to use ‘oldsitename.com/apps/blog/’ so I can change it to ‘newsitename.com/’

    help would be greatly appreciated!

    Just to be clear. Everything else works, the images are in the right place (I confirmed). I just don’t know where the Twenty Eleven Theme stores the urls for opening custom header images so I can change it. I hope it isn’t done dynamically because that would make things a bit more difficult!

    On a separate note… why can’t you ‘reset’ any of the Themes? Just a complete and fresh RESET would be SO nice for the themes.

    I’ve been looking through other posts and some of the multi-page problems are similar but the solutions don’t work. Anybody have any ideas?

    I believe it is dynamic…

    Any uploaded image will be referenced to the old URL

    Is a plugin I’ve seen people have success with for sorting out the old to new conversion
