    Hello!
    With the help of the wonderful XStore template, we prepared the rebranding of our old site 1 on the temporary domain 2. Now we are ready to redirect domain 1 to a new site with XStore
    How to resolve the issue with the license in this case? It is now activated on domain 2. We see the steps in the following order:
    1. Disable license on domain 2.
    2. Update DNS on domain 2 (disconnect it from hosting), then redirect domain 1 to hosting with XStore
    3. Make changes to the database from http://2 to http://1
    4. Activate the license on domain 1
    Are we thinking right?

    Hello,

    Depending on the site size you may try Duplicator plugin to move site from one domain to another one.

    You may keep the dev site activated and deactivate it once you move your site successfully to the new domain. After moving site to new domain you need to deactivate the license on domain 1 and activate it again to avoid problems with the future updates.
