Disappearing pages + posts Wp5.9.3
-
I’ve looked for an answer but can’t seem to find one.
Using WP5.9.3 and can’t publish more than 2 posts and 2 pages. Somehow each succeeding post or page overwrites the previous.
I’ve tried working with permalinks, but that doesn’t solve the problem (on a few of my sites, the change in permalink type doesn’t seem to save).
When I click on “Pages”, it shows me 2 pages under the “All” tab, and only one under the “Published” tab, although the dashboard tells me both are published.
Is the version of PHP causing this? I’m running php 7.4. I’ve rolled it back to 7.3, to no effect.
I host 75 sites though a resellers package and 5 sites are unable to be updated.
Any help would be appreciated – I hasten to add that I’m not a programmer.

This not the default behavior of WordPress Core.
This MAY be a plugin or theme conflict. Please attempt to disable all plugins, and use one of the default (Twenty*) themes. If the problem goes away, enable them one by one to identify the source of your troubles.
If you can install plugins, install and activate “Health Check”: https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/
It will add some additional features under the menu item under Tools > Site Health.
On its troubleshooting tab, you can Enable Troubleshooting Mode. This will disable all plugins, switch to a standard WordPress theme (if available), allow you to turn your plugins on and off and switch between themes, without affecting normal visitors to your site. This allows you to test for various compatibility issues.
There’s a more detailed description about how to use the Health Check plugin and its Troubleshooting Mode at https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/Is the version of PHP causing this? I’m running php 7.4. I’ve rolled it back to 7.3, to no effect.
PHP 7.4 should be okay.
5 sites are unable to be updated.
Are you referring automatic updating?
If so, please note Auto Updates can fail for a large number of reasons and it is often hard to diagnose the failure due to specific configurations present on each server running the update. For example, permissions may be incorrectly set, the unpacking of the new version might not have been properly verified due to high system loads with your host if many users are updating at the same time or they have a very loaded service, An IO hang, files are being validity checked and they fail due to a corrupted bit. There are many more reasons that things could have failed. Honestly there’s no good way to track down why a partial update occurred, we can only recommend what to do if one does occur.
