  The content – ie all blog posts – have vanished from my blog (http://theVeganOption.org/). I can’t see them at the site, and I can’t see them in the admin interface.

  I have checked my email and twitter for notification of any action on WP part, or of downtime, and can’t see any.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there!

  I checked your site today and everything seems to be there. Are you still having this problem?

  If so, let me know and I’ll be happy to look into this further.

  No, I’m not. The problem resolved itself at 18:26 my time – just over an hour after my original post.

  During the outage, I could still export my blog as an RSS feed, and edit individual posts. In the dashboard, the lists of private/public/draft posts were empty – but the numbers at the top were correct.

  (And I double checked the outage on the website, on my iPad, and via a friend at a different location).

  It was almost as if a cron job wiped the indices, and then failed to repopulate them … but the next time the cron job fired it did it right. Might be worth checking the logs if time allows: it was a very alarming outage.

  As we aren’t able to replicate this problem, there’s nothing else we can check on our end.

  If you experience this again, please take a screenshot and upload it to your site’s media gallery and let us know the problem has returned. This page has some helpful tips for taking screenshots:

  Let me know if you have any questions.
