I had added text and some Zazzle modules to a page in progress and I had opened a module to add something to - then left the computer for a while.  When I came back I tried to close the module and got an error that said to refresh the page - so I did - and none of what I had added was saved.  It's all gone!

So, does this mean that if I don't stop working on the page and leave - nothing I do will be saved?  I have never had this problem before.

We had a server issue over the last few hours. If you've lost something, we're probably able to recover it for you. Unfortunately, I have to run to a dr.'s appointment right now. Will connect later.

Hi Chef. Me too. My most recently completed page which had been published is now back to a half completed stage and another one that I was halfway through has gone completely.

Hope they can be retrieved when you have time.

Thanks

Sorry for the server issue... can you post the links to the articles that are missing? I think I can restore the text passages.

@dustytoes: The last article I found was Battles and Hugs... Hmm, if you have saved the modules they should not disappear. May be they have been "open" without saving?

Hi brl, have a look in your account. I restored from your article as much as I could find in the database. I think only the preview image is missing. You can publish your article again.

Good to know, I was a bit lost when I showed up for work here at the ole Wizzle Shop only to find.. all systems down.  I guess that's a sign to direct attentions else where and give wizz a break.

Last night I did a ton of edits on two articles, they were saved over and over again and today I logged in and ALL of these edits are gone- my old articles in poor shape are back and all the things I did to fix them are gone- very upsetting, 6 hours of work gone. Can you guys get these back. The two articles are "The Dangers Of Cussing" and "Why do you think Telepathy isn't rea...l"... PLEASE HELP :(

 

p.s. I didn't realize it right away and did some edits then it hit me I removed all of this already... I worked on them last night up to about 2am Pacific standard time if that helps.

Edit: I also noticed my profile image is not there at all (not even a place holder) and on this post there is a white blank square in place of my image. I had changed my profile image last night just before logging off.

Jerrico - let's connect with Hans on this tomorrow. We'll try our best to get it all fixed.

Anyone else having problems with lost content?

And the last server outage a few moments ago just wiped out the page I had just completed and successfully published - wizzley.com/lego-7929-battle-of-naboo

Hi Jerrico, 

found your page The Dangers Of Cussing and restored the modules. Also I restored the page The Physics Of Telepathy - We All Do It Everyday...ON PURPOSE- Here's How You Do It

Cheers, Hans

Hans you are the man brother! I'll have to get in there and remove the old mods (the pre disaster stuff that was there) but I don't mind that at all- minor inconvenience- I was most worried about losing the content as I rewrote 70% of both articles and was about to publish but wanted to sleep on it and re-read it all. I will be using the "export to text" feature on every article to back it as I go just in case- I know things happen, just glad it's back! THANK YOU!

(Whew!)...

I'm glad (and lucky) that I could help you... We are doing a full database backup 4 times a day (bad if a crash happens between those times...) Becaus of that it is always good to have some backups by your own :)
