Looking for help

Pixy is snowed with server issues. Does someone else in Munuviana know how to dig the side bar out of the works? I realized that not only are my blogrolls gone, but my catagories, most recent posts, most recent comments, hosted by, designed by etc are gone as well. I do not know how (and am smart enough not to attempt) to do any digging where the info probably resides. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Phin? Whatsakyer? anyone?

1 I tracked down a cached version of your blog from 7-23-06 on Google. I've emailed the source code for the cached version to you as a Notepad attachment.

You can simply locate which parts of your sidebar you are missing and cut and paste them back in. (This should work, in theory, at least.)

Might I suggest you then backup your template as a "template module"?

Click on "Templates" while you are logged into blog.mu.nu; copy your finalized template and then from the main "List Templates" menu, scroll down until you see "template module"; click "Create new template module."; paste the template into the space titled "module body", give it an appropriate title (sometimes I include a date, too) and click save. -- shazaam! you've got yourself a handy backup.

Let me know if you need any help.

2 Thanks kyer.

Everything is backed up - twice a day, in fact - but it takes time to restore the backup and retrieve the single record required.

3 Thanks Kyer, and thank you Pixy... Restored and working on the clean up... will have copies of all modules saved somewhere else... I may be slow to learn, but I learn...
