Sorry, I should have updated this. I’ve got it working now.
There were indeed 2 copies in my database, and the trick was to update the table prefix (something that looked like wp_cjifods_) from the NEW prefix (the clean install of wp with nothing in it) to the OLD prefix (with all my old posts and informations) in the wordpress config file.
Once I did that, it worked, for the most part (I also had to reset the permalinks by turning them to something other than the original setting then turning them back… no idea why but this worked.)
Thank you for your help.
