• Just checked my users table and the posts table in the database recorded in my config file and the amazing thing is that though users can log into the site ok and posts are updated ok in the front end the users are not in the users table and recent posts are not in the posts table. Where else are they saved in case I want to make an accurate backup of my database?

  • Hi there erickimani,
    Hope you are doing fine.
    At first glance, i’d say you are either looking at the wrong DB or the wrong table.
    If you’re possitive that the wp-config.php file you’re looking at is the right one (might happen that you’re connected to the wrong ftp), then the first thing I’d look at is the table prefix.
    Have a look at the line $table_prefix = 'prefix' in your wp-config.php. If “prefix” is set to something different than “wp_” (this is the default value) it might happen that your posts are being stored into “{prefix}posts”.
    So have a look at it and please let me know if it’s been of any help.
