So, I have populated a site with data, which at this point is over 200 items. It consists of Categories and Predicates, Media items and Location data, lots of information has been entered.

However, the domain name of the site needs to change. 

Can I simply create a new database, import the old schema, and point the zotronic.site.config file to the new database? Or, is the site domain stored within the database?

Any hints on how to proceed would be much appreciated...

Hi,

You can just change the hostname in your config.
We mostly add the old hostnames to the hostalias, so that previous domain names still redirect to the new one.

No need to change databases.

Don’t forget to request a new SSL certificate.

Cheers, Marc
