   Bit of a story behind this and I am new to this forum so I will keep it short but I've exhausted all other help. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

   My WP host is Network Solutions. Their database that stores my WP site, http://steelheadfishingcanada.com crashed April 19. All was lost.

   I am issued a new WP with the same URL. When I log in there are no pages or posts showing, a completely new WP dashboard.

   Some pages/posts of the 'old' site are cached. Some have completely disappeared.

   I begin rebuilding the new site, using the same sub-page URL's as I had initial used, exact same permalinks. I do this because pages have ranked well on Google and I do not want to lose that ranking.

   When I publish the page/post and then click "view page" the old page shows up. I have no ability to access that old page or alter it.

   Even though the new page publishes it is nowhere to be seen beyond the WP dashboard.

   Pages and posts that I publish that were not on the previous site show up fine.

   Why is this happening? I understand that it may have something to do with caching but it seems bizarre that I cannot make changes that show up.

   Any thoughts would really be appreciated!

   do you have any cache plugin installed if so deactivate the plugin and see if it shows up.

   Have you tried disabling WP-Super-Cache?

   I don't have any cache plugins enabled.

   hmm...when I view your homepage source I see:
   

   <!-- Dynamic page generated in 0.576 seconds. -->
   <!-- Cached page generated by WP-Super-Cache on 2011-05-03 18:46:56 -->
   <!-- super cache -->

   You're right, it was enabled but that was not the issue.

   The issue was that the pages from the old site were still stored on Network Solutions database. The old pages were removed and redirected to the new site.

   It only took about 15 phone calls to Network Solutions to find somebody that cared enough to finally get this fixed.

   It had nothing to do with Google Cache or Super Cache, it was because they were still stored on the Network Solutions database.

   This has been resolved, hopefully it helps someone else in the future.

   Thanks for everyone's input, appreciate this forum.
