Articles posts disappeared

carlo_13 — Sep 10, 2012, 05:29 AM

Hi all.

I have just connect to modx this morning, and all my posts from Articles have disappeared.

Actually, you can still see them when visiting the website. But my articles manager is blank.

Did anybody has ever experienced that ?

My config:
MODX Revolution 2.2.2-pl (traditional)
Articles 1.6.1

Any comments are welcome.

I just had this happen after adding the following lines to .htaccess in the assets folder based on a recommendation in another post about hardening your site:


   Order allow,deny
   Deny from all

Removing them brought the articles back.

When I change the "Per Page" setting at the bottom of the articles manager from 20 to 10, the area refreshes and my posts show up. I can change the number to anything under 19 and it seems to load the posts but if I click to view page 2 of the posts, the listing endlessly refreshes without updating the results.

I did it via sftp but no luck.

Try deleting all the core/cache/ folders; this is awkward to do via sftp so the ssh shell command line is better.

Awkward is my middle name, and you're assuming I know the first thing about using SSH and the command line. ;-)

This just happened to me as well.

It's been working fine for months and all of a sudden the posts stopped displaying in the manager.

I actually have 2 instances of Articles running on my site and one is working just fine and the other has the issues. Anyone have a suggestion? Haven't changed anything in the site other than my css and templates. No changes to add-ons.

Revo 2.2.5 running on ModxCloud beta.

Funnily enough, this just happened to me. I changed a tinyMCE param and then an Articles container disappeared! Glad I wasn't working live!

MAMP/OS X 10.8.2
REVO 2.2.5-pl

Well, those "orphaned" resources are probably still in the database. You could check the database with a query to see what items in the site_content table have a parent of your Articles container resource.

Ok, I have just made an update of Modx which worked fine.

The package management is working, and I have updated articles... but still nothing.

Also, by curiosity, I have created a new blog... which works fine!

Do you think it is a good idea if I just copy and paste the articles in this new blog ?

Thanks for your help.
