No Control of Posts or Sidebars on Home Page

    I am having the most confounding problem! Suddenly I have lost the ability to interact with posts on my home page. I can’t add a post or edit the posts that are there. I have the Post Expirator plug-in which was working fine; this suddenly stopped working and the posts stopped rotating as they should (deleted posts stayed visible, new posts didn’t come up). I also noticed the edit “button” (little pencil) stopped appearing on posts when I was logged in as admin user, while it still is there on pages when I’m logged in. I use theme SG Double. I’ve tried disabling plug-ins, seemed to do no good.

    I’m desperate, can anyone steer me in the right direction?

    This actually turned out to be an issue with Site Lock, the security / caching service we were using. It started caching our site for some unknown reason, and completely messed up the site. We discovered issue by checking our URL that we don’t run through Site Lock, which was fine. I wish I had checked that earlier, it would have saved a lot of trouble. Blue Host was no help whatsoever on this. No explanation was ever given as to why this started happening, and the only way it could be fixed was to turn Site Lock permanently off, then the site worked fine. Ridiculous.

    @rgardella,

    The SiteLock TrueSpeed Content Delivery Network (CDN) is designed to accelerate website load speeds through a variety of methods including caching by design. You do not need to turn the product permanently off to resolve this issue, you are able to configure what assets you would like to cache, and which you would not like to cache, in your SiteLock Dashboard. You are also able to manually purge content from your SiteLock Dashboard. Please feel free to reach out to us (SiteLock) directly for help in managing your cache settings.
