doodlebee) Hi, I’m the son trying to fix this. He copied all the wordpress files and then uploaded them onto the new site. It’s the same url, just on a different host, so I’m not sure what he needs to copy/paste. He does not have an actual backup file from phpmyadmin, just the files from the wordpress folder. What does he need to do for it to work?
Doodlebee,
Thanks for your advice. My son is home from college on break and trying to help me, but the problem is I did not know how to save my database separate from a backup of all my files. (He did this for me on his computer at school, but he may have deleted it by now). I only have the back-up of all the old files, which I backed up directly fromt he old host. He thinks there should be a way to create a new database from the back-up files but is not sure. Is there a way that is not very very difficult? My old server went out of business in January.
I appreciate your advice and empathy.
Dan
