Database Description details the standard WordPress tables.
Recommend you get a backup plugin and you can’t go wrong–back up ALL your tables, then restore all your tables.

I cant make a backup. the files were deleted. the only backup i had was of a few hours prior to the deletion.
im on a fresh install, i was able to just upload my theme from my backed up theme files, but now im wondering which .php files or w/e contain my posts and pages.
hmmm, i been searching :-/
/// .. im checking out these plugins as you suggested.
Sorry for not explaining correctly. Your posts, pages, links, categories, tags, and comments are kept in a MySQL database. See Database Description for details on each table.
If you don’t have a database backup then there is not much you can do but start over.
Your theme is comprised of PHP script files and typically those are found in the wp-content/themes/yourtheme folder.

So, if I backup the database I will be saving all page content? Is this only the text from the pages, or will graphics be backed-up also??
Thank you!
