doh! found it!

// WP_Query arguments
$args = array (
	's'                      => 'brexit',
);

// The Query
$query = new WP_Query( $args );

I guess the reason I liked the idea of having a separate domain was that if the transfer went wrong I could still revert back to the original site. And the repointing of the domain seemed safer than moving files etc.

Maybe I am just a coward!

Thanks Roy – much appreciated ??

I am looking for a plugin like this too.
