How is Data for Portal Home Page Stored

By atenhotep, 10 years ago. Last reply by Andrew Misplon, 10 years ago.

First of all thank you for making the Portal theme free. I love it simplicity, and mobility friendlines, with your PageBuilder plugin. Both are great tools, for those of us that just want something simple.

I am curious how the data for the Home Page in the theme is stored though. I did most of my work on that
page, and after my site bing munged for reasons I don’t understand, I don’t seem to have access to my home page, like I originally did. This suggests that the data for the theme home page is not in the db and not in the file system, as I have full access to both of those in my backup data.

Curiously,

atenhotep

    Hi, I Work Here

    Hi. Glad to hear you’re liking Portal. Appearance > Home Page is the same as creating a static home page and using Page Builder to manage it. Due to an unknown reason Page Builder unfortunately is unable to migrate content via database import/export at the moment. You are able to backup and migrate Page Builder content however via the Tools > Import/Export feature in WordPress.

    Sorry I don’t have better news.

    Thanks for the quick reply. I was hoping for more. Well, at least I know how to make a complete back up for the future.

    In Gratitude,

    Hi Atenhotep. For sure, I can understand the frustration here. If you go to Tools > Import/Export and make a backup from that location in addition to regular file and database backups, you’ll be good to restore Page Builder content.
