[SOLVED] How to move old CSS settings to new blog location
 
Hi there-

I just moved my client's blog to a new location and all the work I did customizing Atahualpa did not make it through the process.:confused:

How do I retrieve my custom css work from http://catswebweave.com/mstone and move it over to http://welloflight.com/wordpress?

I would like to avoid having to do it all over again.

Thanks,
WebWeaver

I followed the instructions here: http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=278
except that the name of the options DB was different. It was wp_3qqe4e_options not wp_options. So now I have two "options" db's...?

Should I re-name it somehow?

Ok I took a risk and re-named it to wp_options and it had me re-set the Blog Title as if it were a new installation of WP.

Then after I entered in the info., it showed a series of database errors, but still gave me the new admin login with a random password.

I logged in, activated Atahualpa3.3.3. and voila! my old settings are there - hooray!

But are there going to be any problems now because of those database errors?

Relieved and concerned,

You should wander thru all the WordPress options to make sure the path's are correct.

wp_options (or wp_3qqe4e_options in your case) is the table that contains all the custom BFA (atahualpa) options and lots of the WordPress options. One is the uploads directory
(dashboard->settings->Store uploads in this folder). Make sure it agrees with the new location.
