The best way would have been to _not_ delete the links!

There are various problems using import.pl to add in links.

Also, there are problems with the delimited files using MySQLMan.

It would have been _soooooo_ much easier if you had done a dump first.

What you can try, is using MySQLMan, (if you don't have that on your server, install it in the .../cgi-bin/links/admin/mysqlman subdirectory.

In the SQL Monitor area, there is an IMPORT. Upload the files to your server, and then give the path to the program to import the files.

Everyone has varying degrees of success.

If you have an SQLdump, meaning you have INSERT statements, it becomes very, very easy. Put the file on your server, then just import the file:

mysql -u USER -pPASS YOURDATABASE < backup.txt

If you were able to successfully cut/paste the file in,then either of the options should work for you.

You need to import the Links, Categories and Users.
