 * Hi Richard,
 * What are you trying to do? Is this a new install. Or are you moving your site?

 * hi rjtyrell
 * which method of uploading are you trying? i couldn’t help but notice you are (
   from what i understand in your message), trying to upload your files in the phpmyadmin.
   Correct me if i am wrong but you are using the SQL import? why so? i would suggest
   extracting your WP installation via your cPanel file manager.

 * Morning,
 * It is all a bit strange as our football site is hosted for us via one of our 
   sponsors who are a web company.
 * They have set up a database for me in myphpadmin and given me all the passwords
   etc. This is all I have been given, so thinking I cab do the upload in here.
 * I click on my database in myphpadmin, click the import tab, then bowse for the
   files…this only allows one file at a time to be uploaded??
 * Thanks,
 * Richard

 * hi Richard,
 * yes, this will only allow you one file upload at a time unless you are taking
   a stab at uploading a zipped folder. Even so, the import function in your phpmyadmin
   is for importing SQL files and not WP core files. The core files are placed in
   a directory or subdirectory of your hosting.
