Troubleshoots During Migration
I was migrated this blog to a new server, because the old server yet too expensive, but during the migration I have done a stupid mistake, i forgot to back-up the database.
Fortunately I have exported the wordpress posts a week ago so i can recover it but then the problem is most permalink did not work since this blog running on IIS6 without url_rewrite and during import process the ID of the post is not stay the same (auto increment and treated as new posts), so some ID from the old post’s links not found.
