Of course it is not a good idea, but that’s precisely why I call this a workaround and not a solution. A workaround is usually better than nothing.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Users can't logon error 503 Service Temporarily UnavailableFound a workaround:
(only for the password protected pages problem on 1&1)
Same here. Using 1&1 and password protected pages do not work.
But I have just found a workaround:
ssh yourhost
cd your/wordpress/directory
ln -s wp-login.php password-wp-login.php
nano wp-includes/post-template.php
and then change
wp-login.php?action=postpass
to
password-wp-login.php?action=postpass
Hope it helps.Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: importing an old WP mySQL database into the current versionSee function
function upgrade_all()
in file
wp-admin/includes/upgrade.php
for WordPress 3.1.2. It performs all the database updates in order to upgrade from any previous WordPress release, like this:if ( $wp_current_db_version < 2541 ) {
upgrade_100();
upgrade_101();
upgrade_110();
upgrade_130();
}
if ( $wp_current_db_version < 3308 )
upgrade_160();if ( $wp_current_db_version < 4772 )
upgrade_210();if ( $wp_current_db_version < 4351 )
upgrade_old_slugs();
[…]So, yes, it seems what you want to do is supported in theory, as far as you copy the Media Library to the new WP install.
In either case, I would try on a test machine first.
