 * I’ve been using this Guestbook for quite sometime now. Recently, the website 
   was hacked. Got everything up again, it’s just that something seem to have gone
   wrong alng the way. Afew files are missing and it seem I need to upload the plugin
   again.
    However, I wouldn’t want to lose all the comments that were there before.
 * Is there a way for me to export them? And then reimport again?
 * Thanks for any hints

 * You can export and import them. Just not from the plugin page itself.
 * If you have PHPMyAdmin or something similar to manage MySQL, you can export the
   gwolle_gb_entries and gwolle_gb_log tables.
    You can import them again in your
   new install, as long as you make sure to have the correct prefix. Also, you might
   want to check the settings page to have the right settings for you again.
