Contest Brief

The current website needs to be moved to a new URL.

- Use Duplicator Pro to back up the old site (currently errors about size)
- Load to new URL and test
- Make sure the same theme is activated
- Check if there is an issue with the host sizes and set up in the control panel so we don't have size issues again

Once approved and live we can delete the content from the old host so we do not have duplicate content online.

- Direct the old URL to the new URL
- Direct dormant URLs to the new URL

Thanks.

  That shouldn't be an issue since you are supposed to upload files via FTP or cPanel file manager- and the php upload limit mainly only affects http upload.
  
  If somehow your host configuration does affect those other channels, then the best bet is to make changes in the php configuration.

I think the size of the current site is about 25GB. My host is Crazy Domains and upgraded to unlimited so it seems weird that it wont package up.
