WordPress Migration And Localhost
-
Hi, I need help fast if possible. I had this bad luck to be hacked and the hosting service had to delete my database. Fortunately(or unfortunately), I have a mysql database backup since my last post.
Now since the database and my site are no longer on the hosting, I installed wordpress on my localhost on my computer with the intention to export the posts in xml format and then import it on another wordpress installation on another host. I want to use the same domain name.
After importing the database into phpmyadmin on my computer, I wanted to see what I have done and this is where problems started. The front page(home page) showed a list of recent posts as well as the widgets on the side bar although the theme is different. As I clicked the links to the posts, they returned error. I wanted to go to the admin panel but I was redirected to the url with “Error establishing a database connection”.
Please I need help how I can use the database backup to retrieve my posts which are well over 300.
PLEASE HELP ME SOMEBODY!
