no experience with AIO Migration. are the paths broken? Maybe migration plugin didn't change the path to image so that old link is being used. Find string replace plugin and just replace old domain with new one in every file inside wordpress installation

PS: this should be your last option. Try cache and other things first, Migration plugin should have this thought through

Permaliks is OK, and there is no cache plugin.

Solved the icon problem.

I had to reset the theme settings. The icons were replaced when the theme settings were reset. Thus, I transferred the pages from the old domain to the new domain. But I have to adjust the color and content settings of my theme.

Thank you for your help :)

backup the database first.then copy the site directory and transfer it to the new hosting.
Make the database settings the same as the old site. Import your backup.

Would this migration not affect your Google SEO? How would you remove all links already indexed by Google?
well, only if you change domain SEO will change. If you just migrate to a new server and keep your old domain everything still the same even SEO, permalinks won't change.

sure, when you change your domain you basically create a whole new page so you can't expect to keep you google SEO coz it works on Indexing and Web Crawling by permalinks. Once the link changes its no longer valid for google and you have to do it all over again. I just said, that if you migrate your page to another server and keep your domain SEO won't change. That was just kinda informational.

I think it is possible by 301 to redirect your old domain to a new one + change it in a google console. I think they even have a tool for that inside a console (not sure) it used to be.

Hello guys,

I tried updraftplus (free), duplicator and all in one migration, but none of them worked.

I download the backup of the site. I am trying to enter and install in the other domain. I received an "incorrect username and password" error in updraftplus and duplicator plugins. All in one migration didn't work either.

What am I doing wrong? Do you have a tutorial suggestion?

Honestly, since 2011 I never use any plugin to migrate my site from localhost to private host, or to another hosting provider. If you use the same theme, like woodmart as you wrote before, so just need to click the export tool in the old site and import in the new one. It's including to all post type (pages, posts, products, custom post-types, etc.
