How difficult is it to move a site onto a different server with price tapestry installed? I have it set up on my wordpress installation so will this make it anymore difficult?
Shouldn't be a problem - before closing down your old server go to the Database Tool (/admin/ menu) and use the Backup form to download a backup XML file to your computer.
Next, copy all your files across, and run setup again to re-create the Price Tapestry database. Open the Backup file generated in the first step into your text editor and COPY the contents to your clipboard. On you new installation, go to the Database Tool again and PASTE the contents of the backup file into the Restore form. Click the Restore button and all your feed registrations, filters, Featured Products etc. will be restored. Finally, re-import all feeds to completely restore the database.

Hope this helps!
