Yesterday, I did a fresh install of Concrete5 and re-did my site. Not wanting to lose my work, I did what (I thought) was a smart thing and did the Davidmirv Db backup and the database schema refreshes.

My site retained all my data, but lost all of my Theme info (it went to some boilerplate non-theme look, but displayed all my content).

I had made my own theme "Nick_Theme"(by copying Plain Yogurt as a base to my /public_html/themes--plus all the other theme creation necessities I've read about) and it was all totally golden.

So, now as I said, that theme is hosed...but: Plain Yogurt in my "/public_html/concrete/themes" shows most of what my "Nick_Theme" used to show.

I'm going to quick-fix this by copying the Plain Yogurt theme back into "Nick_Theme"...but I need to know what I did wrong with the database backup a) so I understand, conceptually, and b) so I don't do it again.

BTW: While I *am* new to this depth of php/html, I have, indeed, been RTFM'ing and reading as much as possible here and at other places, so I'm not just blundering around.

Thanks in advance,
Nick
