Took the plunge and updated to WP 5.7 and that fixed the issue ?? My block editor is now visible! Yea! Thanks for the reply. I’m assuming that it might have been a block editor thing…

Hi and thanks for your reply,

I am not using the Gutenberg plugin. I haven’t updated to 5.7 yet on the staging site that I’m using for testing (I’m at 5.6.2). Should I try that and see what happens?

Thanks for the links, etc. I ended up using the WordPress Duplicator plugin and it worked great. Here’s a great explanation: Instructions on Moving WordPress sites with Duplicator.

After all of that I may have found my problem from my previous failed migration. I had set my “/testsite/” dir to password protect during development and forgotten to remove it. That may have been the problem in retrospect – Doh! Either way, Duplicator is added to my bag of tricks.

Is it okay for me to go into phpMyAdmin and just do a search for “/testsite/” and replace with “/” in the wp_posts table of my WP database? Would this mess up other things? Many of my links are relative to the root and don’t have the “https://roothealthclinic.com” part in them.

Ope! I just added that last comment and hadn’t seen the replies. Thanks for the advice – I’ll see what I can do… ??

I’m looking in Safari’s error console and I’m seeing lots of errors that say “GET https://filepath/wp/filename.xxx 404 (Not Found)”. There are css, js, jpg, and png files in the list. They are in that dir but Safari is not finding them.

FYI – All images/styling were working fine in Safari before I “moved” the site to the root level.
