Restore Backup FAIL! (1 post)

    Holy Moly! I was updating a bunch of sites to include the wp-security-scan plugin, changed all my wp_ prefixes, backed up and was deleting my admin users when I forgot to attribute pages written to the new administrator. Pages were lost. I used myPHPadmin to restore a backup and the pages were still not appearing.
    The only thing I could think of doing was copying the files for pages I found through myPHPadmin and creating new ones. The only problem here was that the HOME PAGE did not show up either. When I made a new home page, it did not appear as an index file (in other words, the page no longer pointed to the http://www.mysite.com, instead, it had a /home-2 extension) So, I ended up creating a 301 redirect to the new extension and modified the name for better seo. Can any one see anything wrong with this? Should I correct this somehow? Is this a no-no for any reasons other than seo? Thanks
