I have this very problem. I am using the Project AR2 Theme (https://www.arrastheme.com/project-ar2) , and it left this text behind “Posted by on 2 minutes ago”.

Can you please tell me how to remove it?

So, to just make things clear. Although I have all the php files, image files, etc… available I don’t have access to the old database file at all. But I do have access to all of the theme elements the plugin installations, etc…

Is there anyway to install a brand new database, and use the content that I have already created?

But, first of all, what host are you using?

I’m using GoDaddy but I’ve called them and they don’t have the information anymore. I moved the WP content over, and then weeks later I got rid of that hosting and only used the new one. That’s when this issue happened because even though all the files and so forth were copied over it was accessing the database on the old personal web server.

As a response, you should be able to install WordPress into your new server, which will create a MySql database in your server. If you did not have any users in your old database besides you (you could always move your users), installing a new database and just uploading your WordPress content onto it should be fine.

This is exactly what I am hoping to accomplish. I wasn’t able to find much information on how to do this. I can install WordPress on the new server. I backed up the content there. I can create a new MySQL database but what I do besides uploading the content? Do I have to edit the wpconfig.php file or anything with the new database info? If so, do you know what I have to look for/what to edit? This is the part that I am struggling with.

Yes, I do. Luckily GoDaddy let’s me backup the database.

Thanks ss1289 – this worked so customers received the confirmation email, but I’m not getting any emails back to the author. Do you know if there is something specific that I have to change for that as well?

Thanks for the quick reply.
Basically, I haven’t really configured it…it just kind of worked.

I installed the plugin and modified the details of the contact form, but I don’t really know where to begin changing all of the email server settings. I wanted to read the documentation but the documentation link: https://contactform7.com/docs/ seems broken.

Any help would be appreciated.

I have the same issue.
Since this is marked resolved – can someone tell me how they fixed it?
