I have been off travelling. Thanks for your info. I should have explained my needs better, but I was worried that if I went into detail, most people would not go the distance and switch off! So yes, all my images are watermarked so that it makes them pretty much unusable without a lot of photoshopping. So then I have quite a few non-profit conservation groups that I give images to, so they can currently get their images for free( coupon code) but the site still looks commercial with a full sales interface. So that’s what I am wanting to change. I might check out that woo commerce info.

I reset the max-file size in every conceivable file including the theme functions. * The upload of media is not quite fixed – it seems that perhaps the images are uploading, they are just not generating thumbnails in the upload window or in the media library. Full size images are in fact present. * Is there a way to force thumbnails?

But all is ok! I have the new install working well and am redoing the website! It might take a while, but I am already seeing extra little enhancements!!! * Forum: [Localhost Installs](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs/) In reply to: [Problems connecting to localhost](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-connecting-to-localhost/) * Thread Starter [BatsBee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/batsbee/) * (@batsbee) * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-connecting-to-localhost/page/2/#post-10275309) * Hi Jackie, I have conceded defeat as far as trying to get the old website going again and have done a new install. It’s not too hard to reinstate everything to get back to the point where I had been, since the old WP copy shows me the theme and plugins that I used. I also scrolled through the MySql database and dug out my text for reuse. * Many thanks for all your help and also to Lyle for his contribution. Maybe I can return the favor one day when I work all this out!! * Forum: [Localhost Installs](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs/) In reply to: [Problems connecting to localhost](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-connecting-to-localhost/) * Thread Starter [BatsBee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/batsbee/) * (@batsbee) * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-connecting-to-localhost/page/2/#post-10274678) * Happy Mother’s Day!!! * Forum: [Localhost Installs](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs/) In reply to: [Problems connecting to localhost](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-connecting-to-localhost/) * Thread Starter [BatsBee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/batsbee/) * (@batsbee) * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-connecting-to-localhost/#post-10274677) * No worries!

I am doing a reinstall now and will start from scratch, so lets see if it does it again. * Forum: [Localhost Installs](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs/) In reply to: [Problems connecting to localhost](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-connecting-to-localhost/) * Thread Starter [BatsBee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/batsbee/) * (@batsbee) * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-connecting-to-localhost/#post-10274660) * Hi Lyle, * yes, I did try that but it breaks the links in WAMP and I get “an error in the Aestan Tray Menu”… * Jackie, * I might delve further into the Ports and see what I can find. I have looked in what I thought were the obvious places, but will look again. Failing that I can just do a new install. It might be quicker to get back to where I was the second time around! I did play with that once, but even with that I got one odd thing that seemed to go contrary to the instructions that I read. When I created the new MySql db it immediately indicated a problem and said that there was no table. I have never seen that before!! * Anyway, more fiddling. Thanks so much for all your ideas. If I work it out I will let you know. cheers. * Forum: [Localhost Installs](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs/) In reply to: [Problems connecting to localhost](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-connecting-to-localhost/) * Thread Starter [BatsBee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/batsbee/) * (@batsbee) * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-connecting-to-localhost/#post-10274627) * Just thinking – if I copy and paste the old ‘data’ folder into the new MySql folder, yes, it does show as a db. I don’t know if it’s working however, because then I come back to that error message that I mentioned in the first post above. Not sure why it can’t load the page when I try to run it in the browser, but usually, I thought that when it comes up with localhost:8080, it indicates that it is looking at Port 8080. I don’t have that Port configured, just the standard Port 80. Maybe if I could track down that 8080, it might solve the problem. Not sure. - This reply was modified 8 years, 3 months ago by [BatsBee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/batsbee/). * Forum: [Localhost Installs](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs/) In reply to: [Problems connecting to localhost](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-connecting-to-localhost/) * Thread Starter [BatsBee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/batsbee/) * (@batsbee) * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-connecting-to-localhost/#post-10274606) * No. It’s a new installation and there are no db’s. The full wamp site (= Xampp site) was copied and placed in a separate drive and so I have explorer access to that data only. * Forum: [Localhost Installs](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs/) In reply to: [Problems connecting to localhost](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-connecting-to-localhost/) * Thread Starter [BatsBee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/batsbee/) * (@batsbee) * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-connecting-to-localhost/#post-10274450) * Hi Jackie, many thanks. My only problem is that when I originally removed all the files to a new location, I didn’t actually export the db. So I don’t have the db in that exported format. I have it simply in the original directory structure… in wamp it is in \data. I just tried zipping that directory and importing to MySql but I get an error… ‘#1064 – You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘??MARIALOGe??E1$’ at line 1″ Maybe I am zipping too much! Not sure!
