Hi Ryan

Thanks for the swift reply. I have managed to sort things out. Just so you know as I’m sure this may crop up again – .htaccess was fine but the server is running Zeus rather than Apache. The hosting company (namesco) were crap and told me “we do not support wordpress” when I asked what the Apache settings were as you suggested.

The permalinks weren’t working also (they were inserting “index.php” at the start of every perm structure) so I guessed that what you said about the rewirte mod was the way to go. I found this really good post which basically gave me the zeus code which I put in a rewite.script document and uploaded to the route folder and things started working.

The fonts are in a slightly different position than on the development blog – blog name is partially obscured – but I will tweak using CSS.

Thanks for your help and great plugin.

Hi Esmi

Woke up this morning to find ALL posts gone. Contacted ISP and found that it was a problem with their server and I now have everything back. I will make the upgrade as you suggested though.

Thanks a lot for your help – I really appreciate it.

I am only running version 2.7 and also two of those plugins (askimet and All in one SEO) have newer versions available. If I upgraded all of the above would that maybe solve the problem? This seems pretty weird as I said I have made no setup changes for several months.

Thanks for your help

Thanks a lot for your reply. I only have three plugins – askimet, all in one SEO and feedsmith. I have been using all three for months with no issues. I don’t have any inactive plugins other than Hello Dolly.

I have deactivated all those plugins one by one and also reverted to the default theme. On my deashboard it still shoes (14) draft posts but I just can’t view any of them when I click on drafts.

I will try the PHPmyadmin thing you suggested too.

The last thing I did this morning was to delete a drat post I didn’t want – is there a recycle bin where I could bring this back – do you think this might be what caused it?

Thanks again.

I use 34sp.com who are based in Manchester and have been using them for years and can only say good things about them.
