thumbnails and pics on front page disappeared

One more thing. The last post on the bottom, the image remained and can be seen. The lone one. I never touched that one either, but some of the formatting was lost. The line at the top of the text “…dramatically, and dramatically” used to be a subheading (heading 2) underneath the image.

Thanks, Zulfi, for your response. I appreciate the time. I will address each of your paragraphs.

First let me say that there are six posts total on that site, which is new, and was not exported from a different domain. Four of those posts, the bottom four, were never touched at all yesterday. Most have been there about one week, when it was first started, and the images attached to them have always been there. Yesterday, for the first time, they disappeared. Most were not featured images, they were simply put into the post via the add media, and insert image into post. But again, they were always there, every time I went to the site, which was dozens and dozens of times over the week, as I was learning how to set it up and add new pages.

So again, the bottom four posts were not edited at all yesterday when this problem arose. The images were there for the 4-5 hours or so that I was working on it, and there when I turned my computer off. I looked at the front page 100 times.

The above two paragraphs addresses your second one, about the cached output. I don’t know a lot about wordpress, I am just learning, but that seems impossible because it was always the same. There were six images attached to six posts the entire day and all day the day before and the one before that, and then they all disappeared at once, along with the links to pages within my site as well as off site.

If you click on any of the titles of the posts, obviously, it will take you to the images in the full post page, and you will see each of the images that used to be on the front page but are no longer there, as well as the hyper links.

I wouldn’t know how to edit a theme’s files, no.

And it wasn’t imported from another domain. Plus, as I said up top, if i switch it to another theme that has images on posts on the front page, they re-appear.

Thanks again for your time. I will see if i can find something that I edited on the top two that may have caused something to screw it up, but i don’t think so.

Does itek have some sort of revisions element like the pages and posts do so I can go back one full day and revert to that time I was using it and it was looking fine?

Okay, my brother arrived and said I didn’t answer one of your questions.

1. Yes, I do have a .htaccess file.
2. I can see it from FileZilla, and when I opened it, it was empty.
3. we did a little googling and found a single site wordpress suggested format… which was:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

But nothing seemed to happen.

Is that correct or another option?

I also deleted the ITEK theme, and downloaded the earlier version, and everything came back up except the missing images and links on the front page posts.

I deleted the posts in question and made a new one but the same thing happened, no image or link access on front page.

It’s always been the same. There were no files transferred or copied or anything. It was always the same site hosting, my brother had the hosting already and it’s just onlinehome/Pete (1and1) is where it is hosted. It never moved. I just registered a domain name and the site as peterosenla.com and that is what shows up. Sorry if I confused you.

And again, the images, links and formatting worked after the domain name was added for a week straight.

I never “copied and pasted from the old site.”
