I had to delete my wordpress blog. I saved all the files. I uploaded a fresh wordpress an now I am trying to integrate it with my saved files. This is what I get:How to Win Back Love

I see all the post of my site in the super cache folder. How and where do I put it in the new wordpress?

    did you save the database as well?
    After you upload the files you should upload the database as well.
    Thanks

        If you saved your old database file, simply import it in the new one via phpMyAdmin.

          I tried that just now and got this message. Any idea how to fix this?

        Do you have the database of your old site saved then or not?

        One part of the install is the Wordpress folders and files, the other is your database - this is where all the text for your posts will come from, plus your plugin settings etc.

        Use the tutorial videos in your Cpanel (if that's what you are using?) to explain using PHPMyAdmin and importing your old database into the new one successfully.

        Search the wordpress codex (or Google) for 'moving wordpress' also as that may help explain the process in a better way.

    Thanks Joshness, even though I changed it I always keep the original. I know 99% sure I changed the database correctly but I will do as you suggest. Hope it works.

    There's a lot of information at Wordpress.org to help you reinstall your database and files. Check out this link Installing WordPress WordPress Codex.

    If you can't figure it out click on the link in my signature and contact me. If you exported the original DB, it should not be too hard to figure out.
