Migrating your website to another host is generally not a problem. To make sure that everything works correctly, small adjustments are necessary.

Adjustments for boxes of the old infrastructure

The following applies to boxes that had a temporary *.myraidbox.de domain:

Remove this line from wp-settings.php:

require_once "rb-settings.php";

The wp-settings.php file is located directly at the top level in the wordpress/ directory. At line ~486 is the location to be removed

Once you have removed this line, you can also delete the rb-settings.php file and the rb-plugins/ folder from the wordpress/ directory.

Adjustments for Raidboxes 2.0 infrastructure boxes

In case you have downloaded a backup of the box from the Raidboxes dashboard, no further adjustments are necessary for the website to work on other hosts.

However, if you have moved your website in a different way, the file system may still contain our mu-plugins, which will need to be subsequently removed.

In the /wp-content/mu-plugins/ directory you will then find the file raidboxes-mu-plugins.php and the folder raidboxes-mu-plugins/ which must be deleted.
