 * Got up this morning and my website is down.
 * tobyjensen.com cannot display this web page. All other internet sites work.
 * When I go to my wordpress admin page I see this –
    One or more database tables
   are unavailable. The database may need to be repaired.
 * The word repaired is linked, clicking it shows me this –
    To allow use of this
   page to automatically repair database problems, please add the following line
   to your wp-config.php file. Once this line is added to your config, reload this
   page.
 * define(‘WP_ALLOW_REPAIR’, true);

 * WordPress is trying to repair itself you can find out more about this:
    [http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Automatic_Database_Optimizing](http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Automatic_Database_Optimizing)
 * To allow it to do this, you need to open up your wp-config.php file in the root
   of your site and add the define statement, save and rerun the page.
 * If WordPress is able to repair itself you can then safely remove that line from
   your config file. If it can’t then you may need to contact your hosting provider.
