 * This is a little strange. All the posts in my database disappear about every 
   three days. The site itself is fine, just no posts. If I repair the tables, it
   comes back but I can’t figure out how to prevent it or really fix it.
 * It’s a family site I’ve been running since 2006 so it has gotten big. 3400 posts,
   88,000 photos, 35 meg database. I use VaultPress so I feel pretty good about 
   data backup/integrity but it’s annoying and I would like to fix it in case it
   does lead to some sort of irrevocable situation.
 * Thoughts?
 * Thanks in advance.

 * Have you discussed this issue with your hosting provider?

 * since this is not WP core issue, then the likely caouse seems to be the database
   server. Or something external triggering the DB server to delete your posts.

 * May or may not be related, but Bluehost _has_ had some ‘disappearing data’ issues
   recently (as may be found in this forum). Might be worth talking to them more
   about this in view of the recent issues?
