Last night I spent a few hours researching how to recover Mike’s previous posts over at What Some Would Call Lies. After tedious searching and getting no where, I decided that I should try and create a clean backup of the restored database he had. While I was cleaning up the database, I noticed that there was a second entry in the users table. Clearly this was not Mike and it appears that his blog may have been hacked and that is what caused all of his issues. After a few failed attempts at getting the data imported into a working WordPress installation, I finally got it to work! I created a WordPress export of the posts and uploaded them into his blog. Everything moved over successfully and Mike now has his full history of almost 2 years of blogging back! I feel so accomplished!
Yay! You’re a database saving hero. :)
Hooray! That’s awesome to hear.You totally deserve some awesome points or something from Mike.
Good work, Cousin!!
