Imported posts have no feature images

    Hi all,

    I have duplicated my site onto a subdomain in order to adjust/test alongside existing install. It’s all working A1 – except for the fact that the feature images from the posts aren’t linked and aren’t visible except for a couple of random ones.

    Not sure how to resolve it without having to relink all the media individually.

    Any help will be gratefully received. 🙂

    Huh.

    Ok so if anyone has this trouble and looks for a solution, this is what I did.

    I exported and updated the database references in wp_posts and wp_postsmeta files, and then imported those into the new database.

    THEN exported all content from the original blog, and ran a re-import, checking the “download all attachments” option.

    And voila! Fixed.

    Not sure why I had to redo the import to get the installation to pick up the metadata and images, but ours is not to wonder why….
