 * Just a simple question. 
   If I switch to SQLite does it keep my blog posts? Or
   it’s a blank slate wit zero blog posts, pages? It was not entirely clear the 
   way it is worded, and this is EXTREMELY important so I thought I ask, just to
   be sure.Thanks.

 * Hi [@simonthesorcerer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simonthesorcerer/),
 * Great question! If you switch to an SQLite database this will result in a new
   database without the content you had existing on your previous site, which used
   a MySQL database. You can however switch back to the MySQL database that contains
   your pages/post data at any time, by disabling the SQLite module.
 * You’ll find out more on this below: [https://make.wordpress.org/core/2022/09/12/lets-make-wordpress-officially-support-sqlite/](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2022/09/12/lets-make-wordpress-officially-support-sqlite/)
 * I’ll also pass on your comments regarding the wording. You can submit an enhancement
   request on the [plugins GitHub repository](https://github.com/WordPress/performance/issues)
   if you wish.
 * Let me know if you have any further questions on this.
