I’m currently looking into how to manually restore your wordpress database (https://www.wpbackitup.com/documentation/restore/how-to-manually-restore-your-wordpress-database?utm_medium=plugin&utm_source=wp-backitup&utm_campaign=lite&utm_content=backup&utm_term=manual+restore) and can’t seem to get past the second step. I don’t know if I’m totally missing something, but I saved all of the backup files to my computer, yet I can’t seem to locate this “db-backup.sql”. Could it possibly be titled something different? Is there somewhere else I should be looking? I’d like to get this restoration aspect understood before I make any further changes within my site–so any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!

LMcLaughlin90,
We have made some updates since I published that post so we are a little behind on documentation, my apologies. All the SQL files are contained in the zip file with -main- in the name. We also now store the database export into multiple files but you can import them all the same way that I outline in the post. You will also notice a number on the end of each sql file so make sure to import them in the correct sequence so 0 first and then 10 next etc. You may only have files with a 0 suffix and if that is the case, the order will not matter.

Let us know how it goes and feel free to open up a support ticket via http://www.wpbackitup.com if you run into trouble.

Thanks
Chris
