I lost my categories (yesterday) and have no idea how i did that…
…and then the site crashed…
This was a test post. When I was rectifying the post before this one I noticed that all my post categories where reset to label “uncategorized”. So I made this post, labeled it private (apparently not…) and tried to publish it and gone were my 2 mySql databases. When this happened, roundabout 02.00 AM CET, I only send a mail to my provider (“databases down”), had a small look at problems with “categories” on the WordPress site (an enormous amount off and apparently a symptom for a lot of causes, especially incorrect upgrades) and went to bed.
The following thread is maybe helpful for me and/or others, posted by someone called “cowboy”: ” Blogroll and Categories not working in WordPress 2.3.2“.
I seems to work again…
Do you have a backup of your WordPress database?
A daily one, but it looks like, at current state, I won’t need it…
😕
