Reinstalling wordpress

  • I need to reinstall wordpress and want to know if i can use the same pages i’ve created with wordpress before. i have a backup of wordpress before i had problems, but where do the pages that i created go to? i tried finding them via ftp but have no clue where they’re at.

    THANKS

    really?
    my dillema is that my co-owner’s dad set up our database and contacting him is very difficult, is there any other way? ??

    how unfortunate.
    oh well, thank you.

    Another question- yesterday I made a database backup with the database backup plug in. how can i view whats in the file since it’s saved as .sql.gz?

    my bad, i unzip it hahaha. oh gosh, i’m terrible at this.

    alright. since i have this backup is it possible for me to reinstall wordpress but be able to use this to obtain my posts once I get the database password?
