thanks handyman, Though the problem is. I can’t login to my admin. Take a look http://www.carlocab.com/wp-admin
How do I do it without logging in to my admin?
Can you access the database with phpMyAdmin?
Yes, I can access database 🙂
Do a database dump:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Backing_Up_Your_Database
then restore that database to your new blog:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Restoring_Your_Database_From_Backup
And can you FTP to the server? By the looks of the wp-admin page, you’ve got some problems with the files. Try uploading all the files again to see if that fixes the login trouble.
I did everything:
Do a database dump:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Backing_Up_Your_Database
then restore that database to your new blog:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Restoring_Your_Database_From_Backup
After that, it said:
Import has been successfully finished, 5856 queries executed.
But I saw no posts in the new blog?

neoargo,
1. start your own topic an don’t hijack this one
2. your free host might not offer the ability to backup
your free host might not offer the ability to backup

other councils on like exporting all file 😛
carlocab123, can you login to your WordPress admin area? Do you see any posts there?
Hi all
I have my blog up and running but would like to set it up with a different template. I figured the best way is to setup my new blog on a test domain and then import current posts into the new blog. Once finally setup the way I want it I could back the new blog up and then upload it into my original space overwriting my old blog.
Does this sound like the best way ?
I dont want my current blog to be down while I setup the new one.
Any advice greatly appreciated
Thanks
