Problem solved. It is my host that has been messing things up…it seems it’s something they do every once in a while.

Thanks for all your help though…I learned about phpmyadmin ??

It is vaguely familiar, but I haven’t tried working with it. I’ll look into it though. Thanks a lot ??

ad1. Everything is backed up, so I should be ok
ad2. Will try that
ad3. the site is https://tumbling.nu
ad4. I have no idea how to check database tables for corruption…that’s how smart I am

Oops, sorry. I completely forgot to thank you for your advice ??

That is the strange thing…I didn’t do anything (as far as I know).

I logged in to write a new post on my site. As I logged in (using the plugin “Sidebar login”) I noticed that that plugin referred to a //localhost-file instead of the file it was supposed to refer to. Specifically it was when I clocked the “dashboard” link in the plugin that it tried to take me to a localhost-file version of the dashboard instead of the dashboard on the site. So I changed those links, went on to write my posts…and afterwards discovered my problem.

And now, another problem has arisen…all my menus have disappeared to. I can see them when I choose which menus should be visible from the drop down menu…but the tabs with all my menus have disappeared.

Is this a database problem? Is everything slowly falling out of the hole in the Internet?

I’m sorry but I don’t get that.

This plugin works (as far as I can see) as a widget and I cannot find any place that lets me choose anything from a drop down menu.

I am actually not sure if you are referring to this plugin or another plugin. I’m sorry, but I can’t find the options you suggested

It is perfect, everything works the Way it is supposed to now.
You’ve done a great job, thanks a lot

I just downloaded 1.5.6 and can’t recognize the problems you are having. My “UserB” cannot read posts only meant for “UserA” so that part is great.

However, I do have another problem, which was also in 1.5.5. Maybe it’s just me being an idiot…it most likely is, but hopefully someone can help:

A lot of users log on to my site, they are of course in different groups.
Each group has its own menu, which I let them see through a user-defined menu in the widget area.
All menus are created from Categories, there is a Category for each user, because that allows me to make posts to the user whenever I want to show them something, it’s fast and easy for me and the user, and allows the user to see his/her posts on the frontage when logged in.
So when “UserA” who is part of “GroupA” logs on, he/she should see a menu that corresponds to his/her group, and be allowed to read the posts in that group through the menu in the widget area. The user should not be able to see the other group menus.

However, he/she can. “UserA” can see all menus (and all categories in the menus) but can still only access posts in his/her own menu.

If I make the same setup using Pages instead of Categories there is no problem. The users own menu is visible and the other menus are invisible.

Does this make sense at all, can anyone help?

I can provide user login if needed

Oops, problem solved. I was being a dork ??

Nothing to see here, please move on

I figured that was the problem, thanks a lot. I guess my next job is to install wordpress on my own server ??

And sorry for posting in the wrong place

Thanks again
