According to the doc:
The core of the WordPress data is the posts. It is stored in the wp_posts table. Also Pages and navigation menu items are stored in this table.

And if you look in the wp_posts table of a site with a menu you can see records with no content but with a post_status of nav_menu_item. This seems to be how the menu is built.

But in my wp_posts table of the site with no menu, I don’t even have these records with nav_menu_item so I don’t think I can reconstruct this or at least it seems like it would be too difficult.

Is there a way to delete and rebuild this table? I only have a few pages and I have that content. I don’t have any blog posts.

Or do I need to do a complete reinstall of WP?

And yes, next time I’ll start backing up the db before I start changing things.

thanks

I deleted my menu too. But I can’t create a new one. When I try to create a new menu, there is nothing on the left side to choose from, just a blank area where the page listing should be.

I downloaded WordPress to my local machine and I’ve re-created the site locally so I can see what it’s supposed to look like. My pages are all public.

How do I fix this? What file is this in?

thanks
