    I had some Wordpress / woocommerce work done by a contractor for a client in 2015. Didn’t end up getting implemented...but I have a new client who may be interested in what was built.

    I know bugger all about WP so just wondering how to load the old work? I have all the working files.

    Would I install Wordpress and then upload the old files on top? Or will that break things?

    Can I only use the theme that was created?

    Any advice appreciated.

    • themes in the wp-content/theme folder, plugins into the plugins folder for the start... you should have a database and file backup if you want a full restoreapi
    • and you might need to keep the new wp-config.php file instead of the old (where db password is stored)
