   Hallo.
   I accidently deleted one more Page than needed when I was "cleaning up" in the admin area. The good thing is that I made a backup on that day earlier. I noticed that one importand page is missing only today, and after the backup I added some news and changed settings...
   Is there a way I can restore only that page without restoring anything else?
   I tried to find WP page database in the files and in the mysql but I could not find out where does WP store its content files.

   Regards, Rebrain

   you would have to find the row in the database table manually and re-add it to the current database.

   Are you familiar with phpMyAdmin ?

   Thats the only way I would know how to do it.

   Yes I have an idea about phpMyAdmin.
   But what table do I need to copy?(I need to restore a page)
   I looked at the database that was backed up with a notepad and did not find anything at all that could contain any post or page.
   Thanks.

   why cant you just rewrite the post/page? whats the big deal?

   If you know the post/page is missing, then surely you must know a meaningful word that was inside it.

   As you discovered, MySQL backups are nothing but text files. Search your backup for the meaningful word -- Theres your deleted post.

   Use copy and paste, and just recreate whatever is missing.

   If you cant find the content in the backup, no-one here can help you.
