edit to say looks like the backup I restored from didn’t have the Gallery info in it, found an SQL dump that did, so ran the gallery related commands and I’m back up and running ??

Hi Jeremy,

Askimet sent me some specific domain names to resolve to, once I got them onto my hosting provider they appear to have fixed this.

– jetpack.wordpress.com

Hi Michael,

No there is no firewall. It appears to always get hung up on the SQL file, but other files are backed up fine.

Having said that last nights backup appears to have worked ok!

cheers Mikey,

I put a new directory name of into the setting and clicked Save, then moved to the MonitorBackup tab.

After 30 mins or so the History says:

Backup completed on 2012-03-29 at 00:15:25

But the new directory has not been created??

I tried this

[gallery columns="4" include="*" size="thumbnail" orderby="RAND"]

but it only displayed a few images,

I also tried this, which displayed some different pictures, but still not all.

[gallery columns="4" id="*" size="thumbnail" orderby="RAND"]

I am looking for a way to display *EVERY* picture uploaded to my media libary.

Is this possible?

regards,

Greg

thanks I had alread read and used that as the basis and followed these steps, but I still see this issue with images.

If You Don’t Care If Your Old Blog Works

1.Download a copy of the main wordpress files from your OLD blog to your hard drive and edit wp-config.php to suit the new server.
2.Go back to your OLD blog and go to Administration > Settings > General and change the url (both of them) to that of your new site.
3.Again, download your database (but keep the old one just in case), upload this new database and the copy of the wordpress core files with the edited wp-config.php to your new server. Thats it!
