take backup of files & backup database and upload at the new web host panel
(see related guidance here)

edit ~/inc/config.php file to modify the database details
edit ~/inc/settings.php file to modify board url & cookie settings (see faq: login guidance)

login to forum admin panel (new web host panel) and change again board url & cookie settings at
Configuration (Settings) >> Site Details & save settings
