    That’s the URL for your your whole sites. It’s not the URL(s) for the poems in the posts you refer to. What are those please? Alternatively what are the titles of the posts with the duplicate poems.

    I’ll tag this thread for Staff assistance. Please subscribe to the thread so you are notified when they respond and please be patient while waiting.

    Today we fly to the Caymans, in my Private Jet for lunch, just love the fresh sea food there. There is room should you wish to go, we’ll be back by eight in New York for dinner in Manhattan overlooking the Hudson, just in time to view the Sunset. After dinner and the marvelous sunset, we will fly to Zurich, breakfast in Zurich is wonderful, the little place I will take you to my dear, makes the most divine crepes’, Hans the owner is a close friend. Did I tell you, I bought your company, You are now Global Director of Absolute Creativity and have Carte Blanche to re-direct the focus of the company as you see fit. Darling, I have been so busy, but I can tell you with absolute honesty you are on my mind constantly, your image pervades my every thought. I dreamt of you the last seven nights in a row, how wonderful those dreams. © lrw

    Hail my Queen, Long Live the Queen By your leave Madam, Alas the countryside has been quiet, the Sheriff has ensured the safety of all of your subjects. No poachers have been seen, No foreign mercenary’s are present within the borders. The Tax man is on his rounds ensuring the sovereignty and autonomy of your Majesty. Ships are being built, criminals are at the gallows, the jails are full of tax cheats. The King of Spain sends you a chest of gold to pay homage to your Majesty’s Magnificence. All is well your Majesty, all is well. © lrw

    Thank you for your help

    Most of your posts are untitled, so it’s a bit difficult to track things down.

    I see two published posts from 7/7/13:

    http://larrywall.wordpress.com/2013/07/07/414/
    http://larrywall.wordpress.com/2013/07/07/403/

    There is also one in the Trash, which is at
    https://larrywall.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=trash&post_type=post

    Without restoring the trashed post I can’t view it, but it does have the category “Dreaming”.

    If you still have a post showing up on your site that you believe was deleted, please provide a direct link like I did for the first two poems, and I will take a further look into the issue for you.

    both
    when I click edit on each one I go to a blank page with a message that says,

    “You attempted to edit an item that doesn’t exist. Perhaps it was deleted?”

    the other gives me the blank page with may have been deleted message

  • Unknown's avatar

    Have you tried the “Move to trash” option at https://larrywall.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=405&action=edit which is next to the Update button?

  • Unknown's avatar

    should I just give you my password so you can see what I see

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’m able to see your Dashboard, but I am not seeing what you’re describing.

    Are you able to move posts to the Trash using the link on the post edit page, as I linked in my previous reply? If not, is that when you receive the error?

    Also, for security reasons, because you posted your username and password in the public forums where anyone could access it, I needed to change your password. You will need to reset it to regain access to your account by going to https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

    Nothing I can do gets them off.

    If you have admin privileges I don’t understand why you can’t see what I see

  • Unknown's avatar

    so…… if its deleted WHY is it still showing on the blog

  • Unknown's avatar

    I do not want to delete this blog as I have had it for 4 yrs and have cards printed, links etc.
    I have cleared cookies and history etc as the support page indicated to no avail

  • Unknown's avatar

    when you go to ..settings… and pull up all posts and look at 7.7.2013 the two do not show there yet they are on the blog page

    When I go to your live site, I only see the two posts I previously linked:

    (The posts being http://larrywall.wordpress.com/2013/07/07/414/ and http://larrywall.wordpress.com/2013/07/07/403/ ).

    If you are seeing any other posts in your Dashboard or on the live site, I’m guessing you are viewing a cached version of the site. Please try clearing your browser cache and see if that clears things up for you:
