Expertise level: medium-low; I'm not afraid to find a file and edit it, but I don't really understand the inner workings of PHP.
I'm trying to restore a WP blog from backup, but with a fresh 3.7.1 install and a lot more attention to security after a hacking incident. Among other things, I've used Better WP Security to rename the wp-content folder.
My steps were:
- Install 3.7.1,
- Import the database,
- Activate Better WP Security, rename wp-content,
- Pull the old theme into the themes folder.
The database restore went fine, and the site is about 90% there, but nothing that linked to the old uploads folder in wp-content is linking now.
I've searched and replaced all of the instances of wp-content on the site using an FTP program and Sublime Text, but I'm still not getting any re-linking. Images are still being sought with generated HTML that looks for things like http://foo.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/pants.jpg.
Where else do I need to look for and replace wp-content to the new content folder name? I've tried poking around in the database but I have no idea where to look or what to look for.
