HELP!!! Missing blog entry

themoon · 05-19-2009, 05:24 AM

One of my blog entries is missing. It just got approved last night.

I'm using wordpress, btw. Is this just a glitch of some sort or should i be worried that there is some wacko doing this for a living?? i'm a bit paranoid... lol

note: my tech skills are very limited, and no, i did not accidentally delete it, i am sure of it. lol when i click edit to check the entry, the title with publish date is all there is, the rest is just blank.

Is it a self hosted Wordpress installation or you are using wordpress.com for your blog ?

there must be an autosave thing ...

it's self-hosted, and the entry was published 2 days ago. it was working fine, until today, when the blog was approved.

Now you realize the importance of backing up your blog.

Backing up the codes for every post that you made is very important because things like this can happen.

thanks. but do you know why and how this happens?

If the content is listed you can find it through google cache.

Hello..

I think that you hav not publish your post..so now you can not see it..

I have no idea how could that happen. But just a lesson learned in this situation, better have a back up stuff always to prevent this kind of incident always.

It will not be just a lesson to you but also for others.

Don't think much of it. It can't be retrieved with what you are doing.

thanks, guys, for all the feedback.

yes, definitely, a huge lesson learned.
