categories and keywords dissappeared

    I went into my blog and found that my keywords and categories have disappeared suddenly. The categories still show in the ‘most used’ but not in the all categories. They also are not on the category page.

    Post tags are showing in cloud though.

    I have gone to permalinks and changed it to default, saved it and then set it back to what it was before hoping that would help. I also tried to set them again in a post but it doesn’t work.

    I recently added Social Bookmarks so I decactivated that but still nothing.

    Can someone help?

    I just tried to add some keywords and a category to a post and save but they didn’t and still not showing.

    I am trying to solve this by myself but getting nowhere. I tried changing themes back to classic but still no categories showing.

    I also tried to add one in categories but it says it exists.

    What else can I do. I have also gone through the plugins and deactivated them one by one but still no luck.

    Can someone please help me.

    Do they show in the Default theme?

    I have only looked at the default classic but not actually changed it and NO they don’t show. I am at my wits end trying to think of what it could be.

    Just to be sure, you activated the Default theme (not the Classic theme), checked your blog, and still saw no categories?

    Access you WordPress database via phpMyAdmin (most hosting providers offer this in their control panel), check all of the tables, and choose “Repair tables” from the pull-down menu.

    Can you share a link to the blog? It might help us investigate.

    Hi manmanx I can its https://www.paulineharding.com

    I have also found out that the server had an outage aand issues with MYSQL, HTTP and FTP and they had to reboot the server and do a deep file system check.

    I didnt realize that the categories had disappeared on my other blogs as well or maybe that happened after the reboot finished as that happened after I last wrote here 17 hours ago.

    Well that is puzzling. Try repairing the tables one more time. Access you WordPress database via phpMyAdmin (most hosting providers offer this in their control panel), check all of the tables, and choose “Repair tables” from the pull-down menu.

    Do the categories appear correctly in your admin panel?
