      We have a Magento website parked at HostGator.  The site is comprised of both a PC and a mobile version.

      We changed the URL to a new one ... We made the domain changes in the ‘core_config_data’ (phpMyAdmin) ... We flushed the cache in the ‘File Manager’ part of cPanel (regular and mobile version)

      Currently we can access the http://newsite.com (on a desktop) with no problem ... We can also access  http://m.newsite.com BUT… only from a desktop PC.

      When we try http://newsite.com from a MOBILE device, it routes to: http://m.OLDsite.com  (it keeps going to the old URL)

      Need some help please.  Thanks in advance!

        The simple fix would be to alter the url of the old domain, or delete it altogether. Without the real URLs it is going to be difficult to answer this question.

            You can try putting a 301 on the old site...but yea, I don't know why it keeps pointing mobile traffic to the old site, doesn't make sense.

              Is there a redirect in the .htaccess file? Sometimes this file is hidden.
