 * can’t think of a better title sorry. i have a good db backup that’s 15 days old.
   i have a current db backup that’s missing data (categories and tags for sure,
   some plug-in functions like ‘co-authors plus’ can find find authors, and maybe
   more). trying to figure out how to best reconstruct the site.
 * 1) do i simply copy the content in admin from the current site going back 15 
   days, use the good old db backup and paste the content i copied.
    2) is there
   a better way?
 * 3) i have a pretty good files bkup that’s 15 days old. i plan to reinstall a 
   new 3.7.1
    4) anything else?
