With Managed WordPress, we make changing your domain name really simple. When you change your domain name through our gateway, we take care of the following:

  • Updating your site's links to use the new domain name
  • Updating the siteurl and home variables
  • Modifying our systems to accept requests for both your old and new domain names for 24 hours

It's important to note that you do not need to change anything on your account after submitting the request through the gateway. You do not need to modify your MySQL database, nor your WordPress installation's files.
