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?

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.

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.

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...
