Moving servers, database imports but doesn't? (4 posts)

    We had WP 2.0.4 on our old server. 2.3x was installed on the server we're moving to. I exported the old database and imported it to the new and it said it was successful but the stories and pages don't show on the blog or in admin. When I write something new though, the id number is large, like at 437, as if there are other things there. How do I make the blog and admin see what I imported? I really don't want to put in 300 pages and stories again by hand.

    Did you use the wordpress import utility or import directly into the database with phpmyadmin or some other tool.

    Directly into the database with phpMyAdmin.

    Is the data there in your tables such as wp_posts? Use phpMyAdmin to find that out. Don't add stuff to your new site until you figure this out or you may have to redo it.
