To quote the character played by Tony Shalhoub, “Here’s what happened.”<\/p>\n
March 4th 204, I decided to upgrade my WordPress 2.0.x blog to version 2.3.3 after creating a backup. Long story short, the Yahoo! installed WordPress blog could not be upgraded to version 2.3.3 safely, and essentially in the process, my database was corrupted.<\/p>\n
The worse news is that the backup was not good either. After a seemingly long period of self-deprecation, I started a new WordPress 2.3.3 blog<\/a>. It was almost perfect, but completely functional.<\/p>\n Anyway, I reinstall the blog using Yahoo! control panel, and it turned out to be version 2.3.2 sans all my postings. I had a really old back-up, and it was not compatible with WordPress at all.<\/p>\n March 30th, I upgraded all my WordPress blog to version 2.5 including the one with all the missing postings. Still dreading from the loss, I slowly did some manual entry on the blog. Then it hit me. I tried using the backup and restore feature. I backed-up 37prime.wordpress.com<\/a> and restored it to 37prime.com\/blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n IT WORKED!<\/p>\n Not perfect, but I got 80% of my postings back.<\/p>\n Now I have no worries when it comes to moving the WordPress blog.<\/p>\n I’m sleepy, so I’m gonna get some sleep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" To quote the character played by Tony Shalhoub, “Here’s what happened.” March 4th 204, I decided to upgrade my WordPress 2.0.x blog to version 2.3.3 after creating a backup.
