Posts not found after reinstall

  • So the worst thing happened to me. My disks died and I didn’t confirm my SQL backups were actually working.

    So I restored everything through some hard work just using MYSQL .ibd files which gave me all the databases.

    Now when I am using wordpress I can’t seen any of my posts at all. On the front page you see:

    Not Found
    Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn’t here.

    The post section of the Dashboard is empty, though categories, tags and comments all seem to be there.

    Through mysql when I “SELECT * from wp_posts;” everything is listed but for some reason it still doesn’t show on the site.

    I’ve also tried installing a brand new version of wordpress and dumping wp_posts into the database with no luck.

    Any advice would be really appreciated!

  • Make sure your new install is using the proper database in the wp-config.php file.

    If you say the data is still there, I have to take your word for it. At this point I can only assume your WordPress is configured to use the wrong database.

    Hey thanks for the reply.

    Unfortunately the wp-config.php is pointed at the right database.

    I can see all the comments (with non-existant posts)), all the options have been carried over, tags etc. Just no posts.

    I’m all out of ideas.
