MichaelH – I am currently preparing to upgrade from 2.0.3 to 2.8.4
I have 2 archive databases which I backed up to desktop.
Looking at the current config file – I seem to be using an archive database as the current database.
So I uploaded it to a new wordpress2.8.4 installation and it only showed posts from archive date.
How do I learn the current database name used by my blog?
I note your comment about an upgrade done properly will not need this information, but I am all for belt and braces.
