Restored Old Database, Lost New Blocks

I installed an add-on I bought but unfortunately it caused a php error, so upon restoring backups I realized I had a slightly older DB backup than I thought.



Long story short can I restore all my blocks from my newer database to my live one? If so where are they in the DB / what are they called and whats the best way to just restore the blocks(Only need homepage blocks FYI)

Hello.



Thank you for the message.



The database tables responsible for block management have the cscart_bm prefix. Please try restoring these tables from your newer database.



I hope this will help you.

If you have an ability to make a copy of the store and restore the database with required blocks, you can use the Import / Export Locations feature:
