Finalize IONOS CMS Migration

Job ID: 40625544

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

I have already copied most of the data from my old server to a new IONOS VPS, but I need a knowledgeable hand to finish the job and make sure everything runs smoothly. The sites involved are built on WordPress, Joomla, and a smaller Moodle instance.

So far, files and databases are on the new server, yet some URLs still resolve to the old box and a few plugins are throwing errors. I’m not entirely sure whether additional DNS tweaks or domain-pointing changes are required, so I’ll rely on your guidance there.

What I expect when we are done:
• Each WordPress, Joomla, and Moodle site loads from the new server without broken links, PHP warnings, or missing assets.
• All SSL certificates are active and force HTTPS.
• Any necessary DNS records at IONOS (or my domain registrar, if different) are updated and propagated.
• You leave me with a short note of the key changes made so I can maintain everything going forward.

You will have root/SSH, phpMyAdmin, and IONOS panel access the moment we start. If any extra modules, PHP versions, or Apache/Nginx tweaks are needed, let me know first and I’ll approve before you proceed.

I’d like this wrapped up quickly, ideally within a day or two of kickoff, but I’m flexible for quality work. I can send a more in-depth description of the IONOS-suggested work details, upon request. If you don't know IONOS please do not respond! Thank you.
