 * I am restoring my blog on another hosting since inmotion kicked me out.
 * Now, there are 2 dumps of the database, one for core and another for plugins.
 * Please forgive me, but: am I supposed to import both those dump into the same,
   unique database, the one wordpress is going to use?

 * Yes you will need to import both. One is the core WordPress tables and the other
   are tables related to your plugins.
 * Yesterday I released WPB2D Simple Restore that will do this for you in five steps
   without the need to install WordPress.
 * You can download it here: [http://wpb2d.com/simple-restore](http://wpb2d.com/simple-restore)
