pharding

Macanx I contacted the hosting provider who fixed the problem.
They said it was a server side issue which they had to fix.

I thought I might just close this issue and I hope it helps some of the others with the same problem.

I will do that. Thanks for your help macmanx I am glad you stuck with me through this. I appreciate it.

OH no, well yes the post/categories don’t show but I cant them either. When I try and add them by editing a post it still doesn’t add any as well, as still shows uncategorized.

The blog I gave you is new so not many posts.

The others though are established and two have 60 posts but I do have an old database backup for those. I will just have to save my posts since before I do anything with those.

I am not sure what you mean when you say do the categories appear correctly in your admin panel? You mean the WordPress one? No categories are listed there but they are there, as when I try to add one that should be there it tells me I already had it.

I looked into my posts & taxomony and there are entries of categories in there. I will just go and repair the tables again though and see what happens. Still all showing uncategorized and no tags.

Hey macmanx do you sleep? You are always here or maybe just in my time zone.

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.

I also repaired the tables in phpMyAdmin but didn’t work. I have since found out that my server had an outage and issues with MySQL and had to reboot and do a file system check. As all my blogs don’t have categories now I presume that it is a database problem but I don’t know how to fix it. I hope someone knows a solution. The other problem is that I didnt back up all my blogs only most and that was months ago.

Anyone suggest something I can try? I am getting frustrated here.

Can anyone suggest something else to do to try and fix this problem?

Mac I went to phpMyAdmin and checked all the tables for that blog and did repair tables and it was successful….went back and still no categories

OK mac I activated the default theme and no the categories didnt show on the categories page or on the posts.

I only have the classic them so I will go and download it and do that then and be back ??

I just changed it but it but categories still not showing.

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.

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.

We seem to have the same problem – have you solved it?
