Here is the scenario. A contractor of ours build a WP site using X. My job is to copy it over to our servers and get it running. I backed up their site, restored it on our server. WP is running correctly, site came up to the home page. None of the links work. Went into the WP admin page, noticed that X was indicating that is was not activated. No problem, we purchase a license and successfully activated X. Problem is that its still not working. For example, off the WP admin menu, Click X, that works. Click Validation, that works. Click Settings, that works. Click Cornerstone, get 404 error. Same for any other menu item under Settings.
I did NOT install X on the new server, hoping that the backup/restore would be enough to get it working. I am reluctant to install it over the existing site because it may overwrite the changes the contractor made to customize the site.
Is there a way to get X working without a fresh install? It there a way to fix the existing site?
Thanks,
Bryan
