    Problem solved.
    I looked at the source of my theme php file in wp_contents ….. and discovered a duplicated function. When the duplicate was removed, the web page loaded again.
    Evidently some changes at least had been made when I tried to save the theme file and it seemed to loop.
    Can anyone tell me if what I have observed is predictable?
    Did it refuse to complete the save operation because it knew there was an error in the source?
    Will a web site fail to load if there is an error in the theme file?
    What is the recommended action in that case?
    Did my database restore fail to operate as I expected?
    A pointer to documentation will be fine.

    Thanks. I’ve marked the problem as resolved. Now all we have to do is to discover how it arose.
    We are writing some SQL code to identify the inconsistencies.

    Thanks for taking the trouble to chase this for me.
    You were probably right the first time. I started to do as you suggested, and noticed that I had checked only the 1st 30 events. I immediately found an event with a non-existent post_id. It was deleted, and the number of ghosts went down by 1. I’ll check all the others, and then let you know that the problem is solved.
    It would be helpful to have an automatic procedure for checking invalid links. We may put one together for our own immediate use, but I’m sure there must be all sorts of other instances of inconsistent data.
    I’m still puzzled at the order of the ghosts.

    Thanks for the suggestion.
    I checked all the post_id values in wp_em_events, and there is a post corresponding to each of them. All the rows in wm_events look as I would expect them to. Am I doing what you intended me to do?
    I am particularly puzzled that the ghost events are scattered out of order in the other events listed.
    Another suggestion of something to look for would be helpful

    You are another star.
    Thanks for the information.
    I can now start to read the Codex documentation with a glimmer of understanding.

    All problems now solved by fixing the siteurl and homeurl values in http://www.bridlingtonpriory.co.uk/WP, and then completing a remigration. Well, most problems. Others are manageable without additional help.
    As a side effect, the login password for admin was transferred as well, but I can live with that. At least I can log in.
    I very much appreciate your help, and am beginning to make sense of other replies to problems in the Forum.
    The plugin I used was WordPress Move, which is very useful as long as you enter information correctly.

    You are a star. I would never have thought of looking directly at the databases. I’m quite new to WordPress (evidently), but am reasonable familiar with IT concepts.
    The siteurl and homeurl seem to be OK in the Priory900.org database(s), but I’ll check the Priory900 databases 1st thing tomorrow.
    I’m still puzzled why I can’t login or change my password, though.
    Thanks

    Thanks. I wouldn’t have thought of looking there.
