OK..so no need to do any other changes?

Just backup the files and restore it to another server through cpanel ..

And then make the changes which you sugessted.

Ill try and will let you know.

Or what i was thinking that should not change the server and only change the domain name on the same server.

Is that possible ?

Domain change is usually a server change, but in some case the hosting company would oblige to make necessary DNS changes on the server (hosting space) to point to the new domain. In any case, it is advisable that you backup all your files including the database if you need to transfer the site to a new server.

Best of luck!
