When installing XOOPS the package will pick up the correct path every time.
All you half to do is make sure these url's below are correct once you point your domain to the new dns.
// XOOPS Physical Path
// Physical path to your main XOOPS directory WITHOUT trailing slash
// Example: define('XOOPS_ROOT_PATH', 'C:/wamp/www/xoops');
define('XOOPS_ROOT_PATH', 'C:/wamp/www/xoops');
// XOOPS Virtual Path (URL)
// Virtual path to your main XOOPS directory WITHOUT trailing slash
// Example: define('XOOPS_URL', 'http://localhost/xoops');
define('XOOPS_URL', 'http://localhost/xoops');
The paths would be in your public_html/mainfile.php after you have installed the XOOPS package.
I hope this is what your looking for. If not post again...
