That’s all I can call it because I don’t want to give them free advertisement.\u00a0 LOL!<\/p>\n

It’s surreal having to “purge”, like “trash” more than 5,ooo files that were manually done that made up the app, that took me years to complete.\u00a0 But God … <\/p>\n

God helped me and guided me because I massively prayed and prayed on what next steps to take.<\/p>\n

After I did the change from the Domain Name Registrar on which domain name server to point the Domain Name ChristianLifeGroups.com, it only took minutes, before the switch actually happened.<\/p>\n

Days ago, I already put in all the necessary “additions”, so it was just a matter of it getting propagated.\u00a0 I took this screenshot, as I converted to the Under Maintenance picture.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

and the bottom part…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Cross was for me to get the guts to go on ahead.<\/p>\n

Next step was purge Posts, Pages, Media Files … thousands of them.<\/p>\n

And you know what scripture came to my mind as I was doing it?<\/p>\n

When Jesus said, “Shake the dust off your feet.” … for those who don’t believe?\u00a0 And I guess also for those who hack your website with clickjacking, and then totally wipe out and destroy the other websites.<\/p>\n

I know in my heart, God protected ChristianLifeGroups.com, with only the techforum part getting switched with a new theme, that the oldwebhost just did (even if in those forums I wrote “DO NOT CLICK ANY UPDATES because it will overwrite all the customizations.\u00a0 I even left notes on the Backend, viewable by text file, I wrote HEY_OLDWEBHOST_READTHIS.<\/p>\n

Anyway, so it’s Go Bye bye!\u00a0 It is taking me MONTHS to migrate all these sites.\u00a0 I wanted to do it safely so I don’t mind rebuilding from scratch.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

I verified from the NewWebhost that the Domain Name is already pointing to their servers.<\/p>\n

So I am FTPing WP Core, because I will make a Brand New Installation, and then copy files from CLG.org, that I created as a BRAND NEW Mirror site.<\/p>\n

Thank You God for your help!\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
