Failed import

    In changing hosts, i exported all files from the old wp site.

    I tried to import the files on the new wp site http://purecashmagazine.com but it ‘failed’.

    I did import the pages and posts, but none of the images that were embedded in the them.

    Via FTP i can see that the individual folders were created for each year and month, but they are all empty.

    Is there a way to pull the images from the export file and transfer over manually? or another solution for this?

    thanks!

    Right, I had read that. Problem is the domain has been transferred to the new hosting company (where the wp site is now), I can’t go back and access the wp files from the original wp database… right?

    can i pull the images from the old database if the domain is no longer registered on that hosting account?

    Do you still have access to the old database? Or do you have a recent database backup file?

    I just exported the old database yesterday. Imported it to the new site this morning. Have not created a backup of the new site.

    Not sure if i have access to the old database. Waiting to hear from the site’s owner to see if they closed out the old hosting account or not.

    I just exported the old database yesterday.

    In that case see Moving_WordPress.
