I am trying to move my domain to another host but cannot find the WA Control panel shown on the tutorial

Wa doesnt have a control panel, you log in through the site manager but if you are moving your site, in the site manager click the details button and you will have your ftp info there

How do I get into my wa control panel?

I am confused on how to transfer my domain to Go Daddy- the tutorial I read said to login to your WA Cpanel but I am told that members to not have access to that- so what do I

Where did you originally buy your domain name from?

GO daddy

After I migrate my site can i still continue doing the modules and with the WA program? or does it have to be on siterubix for that?

If you move your site from wa hosting to godaddy hosting you can still apply what you have learned here to your site however, you will not be able to use the sitecomments or the sitefeedback platforms here as they require your site to be hosted at wa

i see, what I want to make sure is that during the lessons when I am asked to install something or do something that involves the site, like post an ad, or Adesense etc.. that I can still do that. I don't want to lose any site functionalities recommended by WA esp bc I am only on MOdule 2 and there is a lot to be added.

yes, you will still be able to write posts and pages, add images and adsense etc.

perfect. You see GoDaddy also provides me with Office 365 that has Word, Excel and Outlook, I can also do email campaigns and more.
I have been in biz for many years so while I am learning a lot. I also have other needs. My other biz is hosted at G Daddy. I am not switching bc I am unhappy here.

It's up to you where you host. Everyone has different needs. Open Office may also be an option for you as well as google docs where you can access from any device. The choice is yours

THanks. Good to know there are options. I am going to stay until I finisfinish the modules

actually now that you mention it Go Daddy did say they would assist me. thanks!! will do that.
thank you all for so much help

Hey Lori, call Go Daddy and they will do it for you and with you, done in minutes.

thank you for your helpful information.
I am not leaving WA at all- I am very happy here. I can still stay here even if my site is not hosted here. I have not made the change yet.
I am having a technical problem with my collection of email addresses- long story and it was suggested to me that it may be the host that is the problem. so i am changing host to see if that is it.
i am looking lots of money everyday bc of this issue. it is just killing m so i am trying everything.
FYI- my issue is- i use Aweber, I have a sign up form on my site www.enliten-ment.com and it is hosted on aweber. problem is that somehow the emails are not get subscribed! I bought traffic and sent it to one URL, had 10,000 hits but only 23 submissions and i don't even have their names. When i go to put the info manually, it will not allow me bc it says the email address is already registered
People have looked at my WP site and even made changes that made sens but yet, nothing worked.

You're welcome, Lori.

Aweber has a support line—I believe toll free phone support, though I've never used it. Have you tried them yet?
----------
Also, did I understand your initial question correctly?
My previous answer referenced how to change your domain name registrar from WA to another registrar.

If your domain name registrar is already elsewhere (like GoDaddy, for example), and you simply want to change hosting providers; then go into your account manager at your registrar, select the domain and change the domain name servers to those of the new host (which the new host will provide, of course).

Hi, thanks for taking the time to help me. I did call Aweber but whenever they do a test, the email address always gets registered. Wouldn't you know it. The sink never drips when the plumber comes!
Lol...
My domain name is already with GoDaddy, i want to migrate my WP site to be there as well. Not bc I do not like it here but bc it has other features like Office 365 which is of great use to me and it is FREE.
Thanks again, you are truly appreciated!

If you are speaking of domain name registration transfer; then email domains@wealthyaffiliate.com to request transfer instructions.

To my knowledge, you must wait at least 60 days after registering the domain to WA, to transfer it to a different registrar.
---------
Lori, I have a registrar whom I've used for two decades; and personally have a number of domains hosted on dedicated servers, elsewhere. Yet, I have a couple of domains hosted here on WA, and can envision more in the future.

For me, the value in WA is in its awesome training, community, and responsible, dedicated leadership—a tough and rare combination, and of extremely high value. I don't really care about the hosting at all (for my own business). But for some, the hosting, especially, is a tremendous value as well, and very convenient, along with the domain registration.

All of this just to say, I understand that some of us may value WA for a "host" of other reasons, no pun intended.

--Fran

ah- yes that's a good idea...

Lori, your hosting is FREE and our Support never closes. If you're even comtemplating...I would stay here!

Yes, I know it is free- but i have 2 other sites at GD and i know how it works and can manage it easily. Just more comfortable. Plus I get Office 365 with it which is a great bonus, as well as a variety of other features that are important to me as a businessperson. It's a conscious choice I made. I like to have all my domains in the same place too and it gives me volume discounts. I am paying $3.99 per month for a whole basket of services that I do not have here. It's based on my required use and I just need something more robust. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this site. As a Premium member I can create more websites and i will definitely create more here for my own personal side biz's.

Okay...
Short and sweet...lol!

lol!

i do need to learn to be more concise!

Agreed!

Ok Jude- you won me over!! Called GoDaddy and got a refund. I will host here at least until I finish the course....

LOL!

I might be wrong if so I'm sorry I will go find out for sure though

Morning! I think your website should stay hosted here.
Go Daddy is 24 hours...you can contact them right now!

I really do not want to stay hosted here. If you mean that my site will be down for 24 hours, i can live with that since most of the hours will be while I am sleeping. My tech guy is in Pakistan, so his day is our night.
I already bought the hosting package but cannot find the right info to give my webguy. I don't know how to access the control panel and control panel of what?

No...not down for 24 hours...
GoDaddy Support is 24 hours. They can help.
Let me get you the details...

Add him as a new USER on your site. You will assign his role as an Administrator (not Author or Contributor).

He will login to WP Admin.
He won't have access to your WA account details, only to the WP Admin section.

Jude, if i do migrate to go daddy i still have time to get my money back i have 30 days, can I still be on WA and continue with the modules, i am only half way there?

I believe you can find that at site rubix

I am logged in to my site and cannot find my WA cpanel... I want to move my site to be hosted at Go Daddy. but i cannot find the page i need to go to on my WA site?

Thanks for all the support- in the end I cancelled my GoDaddy hosting plan and am staying hosted right here!

Wow- so much support- thanks! with all of you I managed to find exactly what I need. I am not changing just yet, some of you have given me pause.

BUT- even if my site is not on siterubix, does that mean I cannot do the WA course? I haven't finished all the modules yet, can't i still continue to do the work but at another host???

You can still do the WA course, even if your site isn’t hosted here. The only thing you can’t do is using the Site Comments and Site Feedback platform for your site.

got it!

This should help http://wealthyaffiliatetv.com/move

sorry- i made a mistake, it is not a cpanel-- it is the WA control panel
still do not know how to get there???

Sorry, that training is badly out of date and the process, as described, can't be carried out that way any longer. (I didn't realize that WA had ever given that low level of an account access.)

I did find some training that's more up to date: https://letskillthenoise.com/how-to-migrate-wordpress-website-easy-and-simple-and-free

Hope this helps.

how can that be, in one of the sessions it actually says you have to log in to the WA cpanel in order to transfer your domain to another host.

I'm not sure what session you're referring to. Do you have a link to it? As far as I can tell, WA hosting has never had cPanel access.

WA hosting doesn't make cPanel available for members. You'll need to contact support to assist you.

If you switch themes you will fix the logo problem or you can try images tools like ps (photo shop) good luck

thanks- but i don't want to switch themes after I have customized this to my colors and layout. But another member fixed it for me!

Did you notice that your website now loads 300% faster after disabling that plug in?

yes it does seem to be faster...
perhaps you can help me with one extremely annoying item. My logo on the home page is gigantic and I tried several times to make it smaller but could not. I hired 2 different people to look at it and not only did it not work, it is now stretched and really ugly. I have the source files, png, jpg, whatever... but it is killing me that that box is just soooo big!

Hello Lori again
Trying to help you out regarding your homepage logo.
Spent over 02 hours working around with it.

This is really kind of "naughty boy", but I didn't give up. The main problem is the light bulb in between words "Enliten" & "ment" because its height is too high by the way.

The other thing is the logo background space is too much waste blank.

Finally, after working with it I've resize both the header background & image together in style.css file.

I think this is the best result i've produced for you.

Please check it & let me know what you think. Are you satisfied with it or need some more adjustment.

For me I think it would be good to go now.

Pleasure to help.
Vuong

so far it seems to be working, i got 2 emails for you. please go ahead and delete whatever needs to be deleted. I don't know if it is fixed yet, but will know soon enough as I am going to get traffic sent to a URL and then we can see if the problem is fixed or not. Last time i did this, i got over 10,000 hits but no subscriptions. I also did it for WA and got 9000 clicks but no sign ups yet i know that 218 people went to my WA page because I see them in my stats.
I will keep you posted after my mass email
thanks so much!

I've spent nearly an hour to discover the issue. (Note: Lori has trusted me & has provided me access to her Aweber & the site's wp-admin credentials)

I've checked everything within the site dashboard, Aweber sections...and found out that it's a very high chance that ONE OF THE PLUGIN COULD CAUSE THE ISSUE. That's "WP-SpamShield" plugin.

Therefore, I'd suggest to Lori to disable it (or remove it if she doesn't need it so much). This guy (WP-SpamShield) has so many functions inside that COULD cause issues. It's known as conflicts with other plugins/themes or even block some function within the site.

So Lori, I really hope that, it's one of the main causes (if not the ONLY ONE) that spoils down the lead issue.

Hope to getting good news from you after this.

Hi Lori, pls PM me your website page where the Aweber optin form is placed. There're several factors that could cause this issue. Really frustrated with this I know; esp. you've bought so many clicks.

I tried signing up to your site and it seems you're using Mailchimp not Aweber. Can it be that you aren't looking at the right account?

yet when i ask someone to go and try it for me, it works. i dont know how many hundreds of potential leads i have lost bc i have been sending everyone to my blog to sign up and also sending free offers etc for weeks! and wondering why no one was signing up, literally, i bought clicks, i had 10,000 clicks on an add, and yet no email addresses were signed up.

no bc even before they confirm their names are shown and it says, awaiting confirmation.

Can it be that people aren't receiving/opening the confirmation email?
