  • You don’t want the content from the blog, just the layout of the site? If so, you don’t need the database, just the theme files. If you mean you want the “pages” as opposed to the “posts”, that info is in the database and unless you have an export file from wordpress prior to erasing your database, you need the database backup. If you have it, you can restore it yourself if you have MySQL access. Here’s instructions for that: http://codex.wordpress.org/Restoring_Your_Database_From_Backup. You can restore it to the same location, or to a new host/site.
