  Hello guys, I’m new on wordpress, indeed I’m still testing it.

  I’m using Fantastico to install it, and now I was testing backup and restore. But once I retored database (all tables), I’m not able to login again. For the test, I used different subdomains, folders and admin logins.

  It seems database restoration cracked login info. The strange thing is that neither old login/pass neither new login pass works…

  So I’d like to know, which tables are needed to backup and which ones I should let under Fantastico control?

  tnx

  Since you are self-hosted and using the software downloaded from wordpress.org, you need to direct your question to http://wordpress.org/support/ . WordPress.com uses a multi-user version of the software which is different and few, if any, here know anything about it.

  And, since Fantastico is part of your web hosting package, you might have to contact your web host.

  That said, yes, I do think that if you restore to a new directory structure it will break things.
