GD V2 install issues

Kor:
Thanks for your answer. Directory starter is a theme, my error. I installed the plugin you suggested and that permitted me to upload the database.

However, when I refreshed, there is no landing page, and all the events I had listed have changed. For example: recurring event changed from “yes’ to “no”, the street address, city, state, postal code, category is now blank, the long/lat is blank and all the Select map views are now at the default position vs the map I had set.

Possibly my expectations are too high, I thought this would be as easy as export/import the database and continue on with GD V2.

Where is my home page with the map? Please don’t advise that I have to re-build the entire site again.
Thanks

I’m letting you know how it goes as requested…

I still need help with the database. I was able to upload it into V2 and it shows the listings, HOWEVER, all the events I had listed have changed. For example: recurring event changed from “yes’ to “no”, the street address, city, state, postal code, category are all now blank, the long/lat is blank and all the Select map views are now at the default position vs the map I had set.

The home page is still a wreck and I had to install a new plugin to exterminate the Gutenberg plug-in from the web site.

Building this site in V2 is more difficult and trying than some of the hardware we built and tested from a defense contractor. Once you had a code you just pushed a button and presto, launch.

After 4 days, my site is still a wreck and I am seriously considering going back to V1 and staying there. No doubt this upgrade works well for coders, but for the ordinary person, just too much effort and insufficient detailed “how to” step-by-step reverse documentation.

How do I fix the database, other than fixing it by hand again?

Thanks
