HTML Import 2 – Not working

  • Had files backed up from a previous host site. Trying to upload html files to new hosting site using HTML Import. Gone through several step by step instructions that I found on the web and just can’t get it to work. The files are imported minus images however none of the “pages” or any of my site is visible.

    Not sure where to go from here.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

  • I think I remember having this same issue at first. For some reason pages are imported with a faulty post type, article, I think if I remember correctly.

    It has been a while but I am pretty sure all I had to go into PHPMyAdmin and change the post type to post for the imports to show up.

    Something like this should work, as long as I have remembered the errant post type correctly, just change the db prefix if needed:

    UPDATE wp_posts SET post_type = ‘post’ WHERE post_type = ‘article’;

    Hope this helps.

    Thank you for the response. I gave it a whirl and it’s not working but my guess is at this point it’s operator error. I am not familiar enough with coding to make sure I am doing it right. Will keep trying.
