i installed the new cms on my server, all works fine, but i'd like to recover some of the text from my previous site.
i did backup everything but cant find the text, where is it hidden?
thanks
nik

in one of the tables of the database... (i hope you also backed up the database...)

But did you upgrade or installed from scratch?

thanks Arsondpi
thats the database i have with my host, right?
no i did not backup that, i guess i learned something new. (how do i do that?)
so you're telling me all the text content of my old website was stored in the database? and if i'm lucky my host has a backup and can help me retrieve those text files?

and i did install all from scratch.

that's a shame - you could upgrade rather than install from scratch... there's instructions on how to do that in the Help section...
