Thanks for that

Thanks Prince. I think perhaps i didn’t explain myself simply enough. For instance, when i play the same audio stream in VLC, it shows the tracks. Simply that functionality would be enough for the moment. Can that be done?

Sorry it appears there might be an issue caused by partial disabling of scripting where i’m trying it

I’m hoping that there’s someone here who actually knows about how the login works in relation to the hashed password in wp_users. My alternative is probably to reverse engineer the code, which i obviously want to avoid.

I didn’t copy user meta. That’s not needed for login is it?

Well i created a new user to test this on the old site. I then copied that row of wp_users into the new one and found i couldn’t log in. The location for the login attempt? That was the plugins one, not the WP login.

AllowOverride All
needed setting in my vhost config. Thanks

Or are you hosting this yourself?

Yes. It’s running on Debian Stretch.
I’m using PHP 7.0

Thanks. Distinct progress. Number 2 was the significant move. ‘Plain’ permalink will work but not ‘Post name’.This is my .htaccess:

==================
# Switch rewrite engine off in case this was installed under HostPay.
RewriteEngine Off

SetEnv DEFAULT_PHP_VERSION 53

DirectoryIndex index.cgi index.php

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress
==================================

Ah, sorry. Thanks for the help. Using ‘ImageWidget’

Actually, i thought there might be this one that is part of core WordPress:
