A few days ago I migrated my Wordpress site from one Hostgator hosting to a new Hostgator hosting (same shared hosting plan).
I believe I didn't do it properly.
I used a Wordpress plugin called UpdraftPlus to backup the Database, Plugins, Themes, Uploads, and Others. Then I installed Wordpress on the new hosting, installed the UpdraftPlus plugin, and uploaded the stuff I backed up.
Actually, the site was restored fully, and it seems to work fine (apart from 1 error I can't work out how to fix).
Here's the error:
The error occurs on the section where customer feedback is displayed. But anyway, I just thought I'd mention that error, if anyone gets any ideas on how to fix it.
But my actual question here is about the "config.php" file for the theme, and the "wp-config.php" file for the wordpress installation. There's a difference between them, and I'm wondering if I should change it.
Here it is (this is in config.php for the theme):
And this is in the wp-config.php for the wordpress installation:
Basically, the information between these two files is different. The first config shows the info from my old hosting, but the wp-config shows the info from my new site.
Should I change the info in the first config (olduser_wrdp2) to be the same as in the second config (newuser_wrdp2)?
