Help with index
Hello,
I was saving a post & got an error mesage "corrupt index"
So I proceeded to rebuild index.
I now have what looks like a long list of Post [POST]Headings with entry numbers.
The top heading reads "BACKUP INDEX to fp-content/index1650371154"
I see a few index files @ the loction above...
The blog shows no posts now - there were about 500 posts.
I had made a backup about 3 weeks ago but am trying to avoid restoring it since many posts have been added since that time.
How do I proceed ? - I have not had this issue before

Re: Help with index
I'm not sure what's going wrong.
Please create a complete backup of the "fp-content" folder with all files and folders and then delete all content in the "fp-content/cache" folder. Now delete everything in your Web Browser that has to do with cache and cookies.
Then log in to Flatpress and create the index again. The Rebuild Index page does not have a "back" button/link or anything similar, so type in the URL of your Blog again in the Web Browser and confirm this. Now log out and delete everything in your Web Browser that has to do with cache and cookies. After this you should see all your Postings.
If not, you should try to copy all your "fp-content" folder to an USB Stick formatted with FAT32. Then copy back to your webspace and do the Rebuidl Index Job again, with deleting Cache/Cookies and all files of the "fp-content/cache" folder.

Should have checked further...
The post headings is what was salvaged.
I think I lost a years worth of posts when I backed up the blog with the same damaged fp-content folder.
