  • Go into PHPmyadmin. Choose the database. Click import. Click browse and choose the unzipped sql file (if it was zipped in the first place) from your computer and then click GO on the lower right hand side of the screen.

    Sounds like you reinstalled instead of upgrade?

    Is matugo.com your website? Why does it redirect to Yahoo?

    i tried to upgrade by deleting the folders from thr FTP as instructed but when i uploaded the new ones i had no blog just an error message. so i went through my host and upgraded or maybe i did the reinstall thing.

    i did as you said and i pressed the go button but it did not change my blog. the message”Import has been successfully finished, 348 queries executed” came up.

    so what now? and thank you for helping me

    http://www.thoughtandchance.com is the website, matugo is a pop3 yahoo mail account

    Well i guess my posts are lost forever. There were only a few anyway so no big deal.
    Something must have saved because the themes i uploaded are still there and so are the pluggins that i disabled. Putting the auto responder and links back on wont be a big deal but i used to have 2 columns and cant seem to make that happen again.

    thanks for your help edie
