Moving pages to a fresh install of WP and X after a hack. Can't import cornerstone pages

HI,

I’m trying help someone out who has a site using x theme but it hadn’t been updated for years and has been hacked. I created a new install of WP and X and have copied over the theme settings and pages (there are only a few) - everything looks good but the cornerstone parts of pages are not loading.

If i edit a page i see only the cornerstone short codes and when i click cornerstone to change from the text editor i get a message that all content will be lost…

These pages have been imported using the import/export tool in wordpress but i cannot "switch on: cornerstone again without losing the page content.

I also tried just copying the short code and pasting it into a new page on the new site but that doesn’t work either. How can i move these pages from the old site to the new one without having to remake all the pages?

Cheers

Hello Matt,

Using the import and export tool does not work. To properly migrate the Cornerstone built pages, please follow the guidelines here:

Kindly let us know how it goes.
