Oh, and thanks, mercime, for the link to insturctions for manually backing up the database. That worked, so at least I can stop worrying about losing any posts.

I previously deactivated all of them except (I think) Database Backup and EventCalendar, but right now I can’t even get into the admin to confirm that or delete any more. I’m surprised you were even able to get the website to load.

Just remembered something: When I updated All in One SEO on July 12, I did a database backup and scheduled weekly backups to be emailed. On the 19th, the backup for Hollywood Gothique showed up, but no backup for Cinefantastique.

When I noticed the problem today, before attempting any fixes, I tried to backup the database with WordPress Database Backup plugin, but it was a no-go. First time, it stopped backin up after 12%; second time it didn’t get past 1%.

The only recent change to the website was adding a few more categories (e.g., dividing “Reviews” into “Fantasy Reviews” and “Sci Fi Reviews”).

A week ago I upgraded the All in One SEO Pack, which prompted some changes to the database before it could be activated (if memory serves).

The perplexing thing is I run another wordpress 2.7 website using the same theme (Options), with almost all the same plug-ins, but that website is having no problems: https://www.hollywoodgothique.com.

I have taken off the redirect.
