Thanks Lorro! That was it. Works great now.

Hi Chris,

I was able to remove the hosting_provider_filters.php and didn’t have any change in functionality. I haven’t searched out the file yet.

Thank you very much for your help, over that past week I was able to get the website up and running with all the old content with a fresh install of wordpress and plugins.

I’m currently using Ipower.com, for no particular reason. Just what I first started with a couple of years ago. Out of curiosity, what hosting company do you recommend from your experience?

Thank you so much for the quick reply,

Such a simply fix, I used the old wp-config.php file and just changed the password. It seemed to work great and brought back all my pages, which is exactly what I was looking for.

A few quick questions, I noticed going line for line that everything was very similar but a few lines were not.
Do the Authentication Unique Keys and salts have to be the same?

The wordpress database table prefix was different. This could have been the problem.

Also the new one had this line,
/**
* Include tweaks requested by hosting providers. You can safely
* remove either the file or comment out the lines below to get
* to a vanilla state.
*/
if (file_exists(ABSPATH . ‘hosting_provider_filters.php’)) {
include(‘hosting_provider_filters.php’);
}

Should I keep that?

Hi Chrisfromthelc,

Thank you for your response and sorry about the late reply. I’ve been doing some research and reading hoping to better understand how wordpress works.

It does appear that the content from my website is still in the database viewing through mysql. I was able to do a fresh install of wordpress and edit the wp-config.php file to connect to the old database with no issues. However, when in my viewing my site in the dashboard none of the content for that database seems to be there. For examples, in post or pages it just has the “hello world” nothing that I can see through mysql.

I’m sure, I’m probably not doing this the correct way, as I’m certainly no expert. Do you have any suggestions?

Hi Will, I’m looking for something similar to this. Have you had any luck or can you help point me in a better direction.

Hi Hardigi,

I have not found a solution yet which is surprising considering the wealth of knowledge and plugins available. Perhaps, I’m missing something….

I’ve looked at the link above and it looks to be exactly what I’m looking for also.

Please let me know any additional information that may help.

Thank you.

Hi AshtaFelix,

I’m looking for the same type of plugin. Something that will let my customer start with a main category and go down through sub categories till they reach their intended product.

Have you had any luck coming up with anything?

Thanks for the response Kerry,

I’ve been trying to figure out a workaround with WooCommerce. Perhaps, utilizing something with the category -> to sub-category -> to subcategory to help narrow down specification to a specific product, select that product and have the customer do it again and again for as many products as they want. Although I can’t seem to find a customer friendly search addon/widget that works and only shows sub-categories of the parent category selected.

Not sure any of that makes sense.

I also purchased a form add-on that will create the customer order form with conditional logic dropdown menus to narrow specifications. It works great! However, I can’t figure out a good way to handle multiple products on the same page without creating an entire other set of conditional logic dropdown menus (which is just not realistic with all specifications).

As you can see, I’m very interested in any solution/workaround anyone has for this. Even just a suggestion.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Aftab ahmed,

Did you figure this out or can you direct me to the solution. I’m trying to get the same type of thing working on my widget but haven’t had any luck.

Any direction would be great.

Thank you

Hi Kerry & tukang,

I’m looking for a plugin to do the same thing. Have you resolved these problems or maybe suggest a different way of handling it?

tukang, I also have to many products/specifications to enter everything multiple times.

Anything suggestions would be great.

Hi Joedacus,

Thanks for the response. I have been using Gravity Forms for a couple of weeks. Great plugin!

The problem I have found is that to get the multi-row dropdown menu of all my products specifications, I have to create each individual row. Which is quite a taste considering the number of different specifications throughtout a multi brand/model line up we have.

I think specifically, I’m looking for way for the user to duplicate the entire row or drowdown menu without me having to recreate them all for each product they want to entire.

I’ve been trying to figure out or think of a work around with perhaps a different plugin. I feel it’s pretty much a multi product order form.

Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I understand this is old and I’m bringing it up from the depths.

However, I’m looking for something exactly like this that can be customized to any product and perhaps multiple items added to then be submitted through a form.

Anyone have any suggestions?
