Finding content in backed up files
PermalinkSo I uploaded all of a particular site's files onto my new server, but after dinking with the database backup file for a long time it became apparent that my sql file was corrupt. Since it's the only one I had for that particular site I just have to start over from scratch.
It's not a big site (and the visitors do not login, etc, so nothing lost in that way).
A number of pages did have good written content on them though that isn't really saved anywhere besides on the old site backup. What I want to know is if there is a way I can go into my backup files and copy/paste the text that I want to put into the new site. Where would copy content like this tend to be found?
Thanks much,
Kari
There are probably some things it will screw up, and it will certainly be missing images, but maybe that will save you from some typing.
