    Seriously. Post pages not showing up; they're there in wordpress. Is this a hosting problem?

    What did you do before it disappeared? Did you modify anything? Any new plugin activated?

    Hello, my site has disappeared too! I have been away for a week and I am just now noticing it.

    http://www.weight-training-info.org

    I can log into the backoffice and click manage and view the post that way but when I go the home url I get nothing.

    Not that I know of. I did a new post and set it to the future; I could erase it asnd see if that fixes the probelm.

    OK, let's try it :)
    BTW, is your blog set to show 1 post on the main page?

    Did you ask your host if they did anything "new", "different", or "unusual", upgrade anything, change anything?

    No, but I wonder if they did without asking!

    This code looks not correct:
    <a href="<a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/... etc.

    It's in the left sidebar right after the text: clever? Funny? Delightful?. This could help fix some.

    I will fix that -- that has been there for ages, but maybe something is starting anew? It looks like all of the category content in sidebars is there, just not the actual posts. They are all fine in wordpress and there.

    Do they appear if you switch to the default or classic theme?

    Oops. Well, glad you figured it out anyway! And I hope you have a backup!

    Happy holidays!

    thank you -- actually I had my default permission set wrong and some clever person was fooling with them. Thank god I had a backup. Is there a good permissions tutorial on the wiki besides that one page?

    Hi all - my site disappeared too. I hadn't updated my blog in a few days, and went to look tonight, but it says "It doesn't look like you've installed WP yet. Try running install.php."

    What gives???

    Check you wp-config.php file or ask your hosting provider. It sounds like the database information in the wp-config.php file may have been altered, or your WordPress MySQL database may have been altered or deleted.

    jeffjeff, have you resolved this?

    Did you have a backup? Contacted your host regarding any server issues?

    Thanks macmanz, I'm checking now. Crossing my fingers...

    Miklb - I don't have a *recent* backup. I seem to still have my MySQL database where it should be. The host is checking into it now. I have no idea what's happened.

    How's your config.php file?

    Should I run the install? My site has been up for several months, this just happened...

    No. I wouldn't run install. It will then attempt to write a new DB. You want to try and recreate your config.php, or worse case scenario, export your DB, delete everything, clean install, then re-import the DB.

    My config.php file is still intact, it has the name of the database, etc in it. The database is also there. My host chat support says I should open a ticket.

    First thing first, backup your database:
