    Hello everybody!
    I used to have a nice working WordPress travel blog but suddenly the server had a problem and all my backups are full or viruses right now. The only thing that I managed to clean from viruses is my sql backup. How can I restore from there without going through re-doing the adjustments and re-installing the plugins and stuff.
    Any idea?
    Cheers,
    Okan.
    Ps. I am using a linux host with cpanel

    You can download a fresh copy of WordPress, your theme and all of your plugins and upload them to the server. Then, in the wp config file, set the database connection to a database with your clean backup imported into it.

    Happy to help you walk through any parts of that too.
