  following:
  blog ran via WordPress on server A -> that has been discontinued and thus WordPress and all its functions offline.
  Now Server B, the new, WordPress is already running, but without data from the old server. I would have to feed them now … but how?
  Via network connection, I still have all the data of the old server.

  Hi @capaddicts,

  As you mention about different servers, I understand you are just using the WordPress software(WordPress.org), and these are not sites hosted here on WordPress.com. Its a common confusion between the two different WordPress platforms. You can learn more about it here:

  WordPress Com vs WordPress ORG

  Your best way to get help would be at the WordPress Org Support.

  You might have to contact your hosting company to help you with it if needed.

  Also, have a look at this document to help you with moving your site to a new server:

  Best wishes to get your site up and running soon.

  Thanks!
