In reply to: Replacing wp-content folder with one from a different siteHi, yes the steps are create a new wordpress installation, which will give me the hello world page. Then the next instruction is replace your fresh wp-content with the one from the project file so that you don’t have to build pages and add content.
But the most important part, the database, is not addressed. I’ve rewatched the video about 10 times.
I can make new sites, clone my sites, etc. so I know I could follow this if I had the right materials.

In reply to: Replacing wp-content folder with one from a different siteThanks for the help. If the mysql database wasn’t included in the project files, then obviously I can’t proceed with the tutorial.

In reply to: Replacing wp-content folder with one from a different siteGot it–I see there was no sql folder included.
If the site was built correctly, is everything I need for its database in the wp-config.php file?

In reply to: Replacing wp-content folder with one from a different siteThanks, I think the problem is I don’t actually have the site up in the first place, so there’s nothing for me to export if I were to use that plugin.
So essentially I’m thinking the instructions in the tutorial video are wrong, you can’t simply replace one wp-content folder with another, and automatically have the site update with the new content, right?
