 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * How exactly did you migrate, i.e. what did the backup files contain?
 * Do you still have access to the old site? If so, you could export the tables 
   from there again, within TablePress, to the JSON format, and then import those
   files on the new site.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Hi Andy,
 * ok, the SQL database file and the WordPress XML export are good starting points
   here. With those, it should be possible to restore the tables.
 * To find out if the table data is in your database (and only the relationship 
   between the table ID and internal WordPress post ID went missing), you can use
   the small plugin from [https://tablepress.org/download/extension/tablepress-debug.zip](https://tablepress.org/download/extension/tablepress-debug.zip)
   
   This will add a “TP Tables” entry in the admin menu, which should show all tables
   in their raw format. If that page then shows all your tables, we can continue
   with restoring the mentioned relationship via the “Debug” tab in TablePress.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Hi,
 * ok, what’s a bit strange is that this Plugin Option is there, but the tables 
   are not …
 * Do you see a “TP Tables” entry in the main admin menu on the left? When you open
   that, do you see a list of your tables?

    Tobias

 * Hi,
 * ok, then the migration didn’t take into account the tables for some reason.
    
   Can you maybe send me the XML file by email (the address is in [https://tablepress.org/impressum/](https://tablepress.org/impressum/))?
   I’ll check if I can extract the table data from that.
