    help question URL problems after changing hosts

    I'm new here so please be patient and kind!

    I am using Bluehost and created a test domain name since I already had a live site somewhere else and was un happy with them.

    I figured that I can configure Zen Cart get it ready and move my site over when I was finished. Well I did! Before I moved my real domain name over I created a copy of my file structure and a copy of my Database. Called them test...

    I moved my domain over as an addon to my test domain name, changed the 2 configure.php files under each directory structure and am off and running. All looks good except that in the configure.php files it seems like I have to leave the url's pointed to the test domain in the live site. When I change them to the live domain name, I loose all my graphics and html! but if I leave the test domain names in all looks good and my customers can actually use the live URL to get in but my problem is that once they hit a link to go to a product, category or whatever the URL changes to the test domain name. It still hits the right directory structure and DB but I'm worried that people will see that url and think something is wrong.

    Help!!!!

    P.S. I'm at v1.3.8a
