I have a really slow internet connection so the advantage of building and editing my site locally is huge.

Am I to understand that once I build my site locally I can move it to the on-line hosting server and then if I update my site locally, I can export the database and bring the on-line version current by restoring the database to it? Is it that simple? Or are there other steps.
Thanks

hi ever find a ay to separate out categories?
Thanks

Hello Genius.
How did you repair the mysql wp_post table?
Also, how was it that you were looking at the database itself? Where can you do that?
Thanks

Also, all my plug ins are in the plug ins folder but none are activated nor applied.
Can all that configuration be restored?

More info, upon looking I see that none of my widgets are in place, it’s as it the theme was reset to default. Wouldn’t my customized theme have come back with the restore of the WordPress folder? Or is there some pointer to the mysql that WP is not seeing right? The new mysql has a different user name and database name than the old, but I updated wp-config.php to see the new mysql. is there some other file that needs to be updated with those new names so the theme i customized comes back?
Thanks

Hi
I have a similar problem, my wordpress folder got deleted by accident. My host, Godaddy, had me build a new mysql file and they restored the old database into that new file. I did the restore of the wordpress folder so my uploaded files are present, but when I reconfigured the wp-config.php to the new identity so they see each other the blog comes back essentially empty, none of my old posts, pages, comments etc. are present.

Is there a way to get them back?

Google has them cached for now, can I get the code from Google and plug the pages back in somehow? If so how?

Thanks in advance.
