#1314 Posts appear empty!

by Anzo December 11th 2014, 13:56

Hello,

For the last 2 days some members have been having issues with the forum. When they quote someone or edit their post, suddenly their whole post disappears and only a blank appear instead of the post itself, when they attempt to edit it hoping its a glitch or lag or w/e it is its empty as well in the editing page. It's like the stuff in the post just disappear or something.

not sure how to describe it better, hope you can relate to what am saying lol

We've deleted all empty posts. But, I'm sure It'll happen again.

I'll post here again with a link the next time it happens.

Hello,

All of a sudden the entire posts on my forum today that I admin. has suddenly disappeared; over two months of extreme hard-work and the dates are appearing as 1970.

I had over 11,000 posts and now none of them show up and my own username appears as "does not exist".

Just clicking on the title of whatever post remains makes it disappear instantly.

Hello @Peitho,

On the forum you provided there is only one topic. Is that the correct forum link?

Luffy

by Peitho March 3rd 2015, 03:08

That's the correct forum link.

I had nearly 1000+ posts and topics and everything is wiped out all of a sudden and the whole forum is acting erratic with the dates going from 1960 to 1970 and every time i click it the topic name and date keeps changing and my own username Peitho - says "does not exist"...

I'm almost in tears and cant take this stress; I put in so much hard work and am hoping so much they can be restored.

Thanks.

by **brandon_g** March 3rd 2015, 04:21

That is the craziest thing I have ever seen. A whole forum worth of messages and users wiped away? What is going on with forumotion!?
By the way it reset your account to 'Admin' as seen in this link.

by Peitho March 3rd 2015, 04:49

Yes, it allows me to log in only as admin, and ALL my posts including my username peitho which i posted under and which i click on, everything got wiped off.

I dont know what to do.

by Peitho March 3rd 2015, 05:18

A snippet of how it was until yesterday morning... it shows my own username as 'Guest', and I couldn't click on any of the topics - it showed 'no post.

The above image is too broad; in the normal view, you can see it shows the dates as 1970!

I would assume that is why... but this poor user had his ENTIRE forum reset to nothing. Maybe @Buttercup can look into it?

by **Shadow** March 3rd 2015, 10:34

Hello

I just make a full backup of the forum and the problem seems to be solved. Next time, you can use your founder tools: https://www.forumotion.com/utils/edit

Regards

by Peitho March 3rd 2015, 11:10

I did look but the backup machine had backed up only till Feb. 18th and that's half a month of loss nearly, and I was unsure if the content I was typing since yesterday morning would be all gone, not knowing what was happening.

My username got restored but half a month of data is still all gone, from Feb.14th to Mar. 2nd.

I cant understand who or how this happened, since it was a closed forum that I was developing before publishing it.
No one even entered the forum or even knew of it.

EDIT: My whole forum seems to disappear again now when I try to log in as Peitho or admin - What is happening??

by **Shadow** March 3rd 2015, 13:06

Hello @Peitho

Your forum didn't disappear at all. A backup from Feb 18th has been made beacuse it was the available date.

Thanks for your understanding.
