I wonder if I deleted all of the wp-e-commerce tables, would it fix things??
where did you get the initial export from? phpmyadmin? a backup plugin? what? the wordpress export feature? where????

edit:
im not even going to touch this thread. youre a disaster waiting to happen and im not feeling up to talking folks down from the ledge.
So I tried deleting all the tables except the ones starting with wp_bb (I believe that’s the prefix I used in the first install on my old host) and nope, didn’t work…
Yes phpmyadmin.
Did I really mess things up that badly?
If possible I could send or upload my import to someone…
I’ve spent a lot of time and effort on my posts and it’s killing me to not have access to it… If someone could help me out I’d offer them free advertising on my site. Something. I’m desperate.
You really just need the wp-options and wp-posts tables if you just want your content.
But good luck, I’ve been trying to do the same thing because I’ve been slammed with the dreaded WSOD (White Screen of Death) on my old server and every time I triy to import any of my tables, I either get a 1062 error or a “server interrupted” message.
BOLLOCKS.

thats NOT true. In fact, thats not even close.
jennojenno: I would say, start over on the new install and use the WP export/import function. You’ll find them in the admin / tools menu.
Then just go thru your plugins and settings to make sure things mirror the old site the way you want.
Hopefully you are working on the new site before updating your DNS so that the old host is still serving the (live) site.
whooami, thanks for… nothing, really 😀
xpatsy gave me a good idea. I scrapped the current site, uploaded wp manually, changed the prefix in the config file (cuz originally my tables had a prefix of wp_bb), then installed wp.
After that I searched for the parts in the .sql file that were the most important: posts and options and comments. I started with options and uploaded that via phpmyadmin and yay, all my options are there! Then I did the rest and now I can see all my posts, but stripped to the bone (I’m assuming I can add categories and tags in the same fashion).
Would that have been so hard to explain? Nah… Thankfully I figured it out. Now if only I had my images too…
Glad to see you managed to re-coup a bit Jenno – It’s all a learning game for me @ the moment too (usually the case) and every idea spark helps.
Also, Whooami is a jackass and I think you will appreciate my verbal pWn’ing of him in my thread which he [unfortunately] chose to make an utterly useless appearance in:
