All my WordPress posts disappeared

  • Unknown's avatar

    I have an own domain hosted WordPress blog version 3.2.1. I made a minor change to a post this morning and when I clicked ‘update’ every single post in the blog disappeared.

    I didn’t panic I thought there was no problem and I tried to restore it from a back up. First I tried to grab all the information from Blogger because I used to host it there and just left it live when I moved it across. That didn’t work although it seemed to. Then I remembered I had an xml version of the blog. So I installed the RSS import plugin and tried from there, it said I was successful but when I looked, still no posts.

    Then I tried to create a new post manually and it said I did not have permission to edit the post, even though I was logged in as administrator.

    What is going on, I am starting to panic now as I have no clue how all my posts could disappear like that.

    I did have a weird thing happen to me when I was editing another blog, some meesage saying the Matrix has got me and to follow the white rabbit, but I have not seen that on the blog with the disappearing posts and later read that was a harmless trick. I am starting to think there is a bit more to it than that.
