# Cannot Preview Posts – “no posts in the database”

 * My latest WP disaster -and they’re coming one right after another – is that when
   I try to preview the post it says “No posts in the database”. This all happened
   after I had the blog moved to another server.
 * The post is saved in the dashboard – so its saved somewhere. Any ideas?

 * Did you backup from old server and install in new server … database and server
   files and folders, and possibly copy of wp-config.php (revised with info of new
   database) and .htaccess or XML export/import?
 * Posts are saved in your database and XML. Images or other media attachments are
   saved in your server wp-content/uploads folder.

 * My host did it. I have a backup as well. I’ll check wp-config.php – (and copy
   htaccess and xml/export/import to the new site?)

 * The blog is being published fine. When I bring it up to preview it has the old
   address- and there’s nothing there. I need to change that address – where I change
   it though I don’t know 🙂
