Cannot see the list of pages

  • Recently I was deleting old pages in the dashboard. None of these pages were used for my current site or theme. Now if I click on the “pages” tab in the dashboard it logs me out and I cannot see the list of pages. Any idea what is causing this or how I can fix it?

    Not sure how to repair. I have not done that. Do I need to log into Phpmyadmin or can it be done inside WP?

    You need to log into Phpmyadmin.

    What am I looking for in the database? How can I repair it?

    – log into phpMyAdmin
    – select the WP database from the left pane
    – click the Export tab in the right pane
    – Export method: Quick, Output: both unchecked, Format: SQL then Go (will save to wherever your downloads go)
    – now you have a backup! ??

    – click the Structure tab in the right pane
    – check the Check All box at the bottom of the tables column in the right pane then select Repair table from the drop down list

    Sorry about the duplicate posts. The forum went down when I was posting. Maybe I should import the last working version of the database I exported. But I am afraid it might mess things up more. Is it best to import over whats there or do I clear all the tables.

    Ok I was able to import a backed up database. I went through each old page I wanted to delete. After I deleted the page, I would click on the “pages” link in the dashboard. The one page where it messed up again was a page with some text on it and shortcodes. It was a page to show you what shortcodes were available on an old theme I was using. Can’t figure out what deleting with page effects viewing the list of pages.
