Hmm kinda looks like what I am looking for. Just to download my posts, theme and plugins, reinstall wordpress, then throw my theme, plugins, and posts back on like I never touched it. Just seems all my sites are messy.
You know how to use it, I know I can watch tuts, but this one blog means everything to me. I dont really want to mess it up. And yeah it was dumb of me to let the host transfer it

Ah alright.
Seems when my host transferred it, it broke some of my websites features. So I reinstalled it, and they are still broken. This is very odd.
Can you describe the migration process a little bit more in detail? I am trying to imagine what could have cone wrong.
So did you only transfer hosts? Is it only on one domain - or or how many domains / blogs involved?
Did you change the domain name during the migration?
When migrating from server to server, it can be pretty easy to keep it looking / functioning identical from the original. However, there are small quarks that come up. Anything from not having mod_rewrite enabled or running on a different PHP 5.x version that foobars, on up to php.ini -or- mod_sec misconfigured.
It's hard to determine what went wrong without specific details, but I can always lend an ear.

Not sure, even the host wasnt to helpful. I am just gonna get my money back, and move back to my old posts. I have my posts saved, just waiting for my nameservers to update now.
Thank you for the help though
