Is there any way to get the old entries back besides manually entering them?

Hi. I hope this is the right place for this question. I recently switched ISPs and moved all of my guestbook files from the old to the new webserver. It looks like I configured the program correctly. But, its not bringing up my old guestbook entries. I would like to show my old entries and keep my existing configurations (ie database password). I can't even get into the admin page anymore. How can I just revert back to that? I'm sure there is a tutorial on how to do this, but I looked and couldn't find it.

Thanks alot.
Darren

Hey everyone. I am a beginner at this guestbook so forgive me if this is a simple question. I get hammered with SPAM all the time and I know I can delete the entries one by one using Easy Admin. How do I delete multiple entries at the same time? Anyway to go into the database and select line items (like in Access or Excel) and just delete them?

This worked out perfectly...thanks alot.

COOL...thanks alot, I just sent it to you!!!

I am not sure which files I have to give to you. If you have IM, I am always online. Can we chat over IM?

The thing is I am not sure exactly where it would go in the code that I have. Someone made my website for me and I don't know this stuff. Can someone help me if I give them to code to my form?

Here is the URL:

Does anyone know how to add JUST the image verification to a form? My form is getting SLAMMED and I need help. I already have the Advanced Guestbook running and that stopped the spam. Now, the form on my site needs help. The form can be located here:

http://www.allshewroterocks.com/contact_booking.html

Someone PLEASE HELP!!!!!!
D

OK, that's fine...i don't mind that. If someone complains, then I'll change it.

Thanks for the QUICK reply.
D

How come all of the email addresses for people are showing up funny on the GB? Is it for protection?

They appearlike this - "j2maffei(at)sbcglobal(dot)net"

Someone help.
thanks,

Guys,

This is my guestbook:

http://www.allshewroterocks.com/gb/index.php

Where is the file that holds the location of the GIFs for the "Sign The Guestbook" picture and the "Guestbook" picture and the "Thank you for stopping by my site. Here you can leave your mark" statement on the front page? I can't find the file.

Thanks.

UGh, I am sorry guys. OK, so I know why the pictures didn't show up. I uploaded the pics to the right directory, but was using the wrong URL for the GB. The GB is "http://www.allshewroterocks.com/gb/index.php". Everything works. I don't know why my old webmaster set the URL to "http://www.allshewroterocks.com/gb/output.php" before.

Anyway, looks like all is good, I just have to go change the URL's on my website to match this now.

Is there any reason not to do this now?

Thanks alot.
D

Sorry, i changed my entry...please re-read it...it was working, then it stopped and i didnt even do anything...check out my post above again...

OK:

1.) I renamed the old GB and then uploaded the new GB folder.
2.) I ran the update file and it did something, the update worked because I went into the Admin tool and it said 2.4.1.

Things that are wrong:

1.) My old URL to go to the GB was http://www.allshewroterocks.com/gb/output.php. Now it doesn't work. What do I do?

2.) None of the pictures transferred over that people posted. I found them in the "public" folder of my old GB structure and uploaded them and it did not work. How do i fix this>

3.) I now have to access the GB via this URL: http://www.allshewroterocks.com/gb/. It is very slow. Whats going on?

Can you guys help me fix this?
D

Does anyone know where to find a step by step upgrade forum for upgrading frmo 2.3.1 to 2.4.1? Is it in BASIC terms, too? I am new to this and don't know alot.

Thanks.
