greetings,
2 years ago someone that worked for me used the same database for 2 websites. 2 years after and cleaning one of the websites i erased the databse without knowing it was the same for a very important site of mine.
so... i lost all...
i have an old backup but better than nothing, but the problem is that after importing it to the mysql control panel, i cant conect it to the website. what am i missing?
thanks for the help.
1 ask your host for a Recent back up - good hosts will do that at least weekly
2 make sure the $table_prefix in wp-config.php is the same as the db you are connecting to and make sure the user, pass, etc. are correct in wp-config.php.
