Hi all,

This website is a copy but all the links are pointing back to the old website. I guess this is about something like a base URL setting. Any suggestions please?

Thank you :)

Yup: change it before you export the DB. It's stored by WP in serialized arrays so a simple find/replace on the sql dump won't fix it.

Thanks for replies, now fixed :)
I had already updated the site url in the database but it was the update to Administration > Settings > General panel that was missing.

Thanks :)
