Hello,

We have created our website on a temporary server with a different domain name than the definitive one and we used PageBuilder to create pages. The problem we have today is: when we try to move the website to the final server and change domain name in configuration files and database, PageBuilder’s template are not available anymore. Is it a common issue ? And can we fix it without recreating all pages one by one ?

Thank you,

JL.

    Hi JL

    It does depend on how you transferred the site. Some methods do cause issues with PageBuilder. Please try using the following plugin to transfer your site.

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-clone-by-wp-academy/

    Install this on both sites then create a backup on the testing server and restore the generated file to the live one. This plugin makes all the alterations for domain name and site url’s for you

    Let us know how you get on
