Restore post from old database

  • Hello everyone,

    i’m newbie and i messed up with my first blog but i had a backup.
    I started a new one website but i want to recover some posts from the old backup without obviosly cancelling nothing in the new one!

    Is it possible?

    thanks in advance

  • Yes that is possible.

    Get your backup file and restore it. You can do that in Localhost. After that export the file become XML. Now you have 1 XML file from old site.

    In new site. Import that XML file from old site to a new site. Be careful when you import the file. Make sure you using the right category and author.

    Note: If you don’t want some post. Just delete it from your new site.

    Done, goodluck!

    Hello,

    first thanks for the response!
    I don’t have a localhost and the plugin i had installed saved a backup in .gz file.

    1)Is that a way to do it not in XAMPP or othe programms?
    2)Another question: Now i don’t have the same author/category. So is impossible to recover them?
    3)Is there a way to copy the content inside of the database and to do it manually?

    Hope my questions are not so stupid.
    Best regards
