# START HERE - Simple Migration Steps

## Two Simple Steps to Start

### ✅ Step 1: Create Directories on NEW Server

**On NEW server (vps2.scala4.com):**

```bash
# Copy this script to new server first, then run:
./step1-create-directories.sh
```

**Or manually:**
```bash
mkdir -p /opt/migration/{scripts,docs,logs}
mkdir -p /backup/{applications,databases,configs}
chmod -R 755 /opt/migration /backup
```

**Done!** ✅

### ✅ Step 2: Find scala4.com WordPress on OLD Server

- What the database name is

**Write down:**
- Directory path: `/var/www/html/?????`
- Database name: `?????`
