September 29, 201015 yr I have a blog that has some errors somewhere in it so I decided to install wordpress again but in a different directory folder. I have my original site http://www.trevorhallmarketing.com and I have the new one at http://www.trevorhallmarketing.com/new. I was assuming I could simply drag and drop the folders and it would work but I was sadly mistaken. I was wondering if anything knew how to actually do this?

September 30, 201015 yr You can first export your wordpress data, then import the data to your new blog.
September 30, 201015 yr Running concurrent installations of WP should be straightforward. Try editing /new/wp-config.php. Change line 57 (approx) to define the $table_prefix as something new, like "new_blog_". If this doesn't resolve your issue, I recommend installing a fresh copy of WP from wordpress.org, following their installation instructions. In either case, the new version of your blog will not contain the data from the old one. You'll need to export the posts from the old WP and import them as suggested above.
