For those following my saga of the lost WordPress site, I’m happy to announce I managed to find it. You can read more on that here and here. It kept saying there was no site with that name but yesterday I could access it through Google, although it’s still missing from my sites on WordPress. I was able to transfer the few missing chapters to a word document.
I had contacted WordPress and eventually I heard back from them. They asked me to take a screenshot of my sites to show it’s not there. I did that but now I have no idea where to answer. The question just popped up and I’ve looked all over WordPress and can’t find where the message is. I thought maybe it came in my email but haven’t found it there either. If anyone can offer advice I’d appreciate it.
Thanks again to everyone who offered sympathy and positive energy.
Sounds like you’ve had a nightmare! I’m afraid I’m no help, I’m still struggling to find my way around WordPress myself. I hope you get it sorted soon.

The funny thing is I’ve had that site for many years….much longer than this one.

You would think that it would be in your e-mail? No spam filter on your e-mail that may have put it somewhere else? Hope it all works out!

Congratulations – I am so glad, Cathy, that you recovered it!
May I suggest that you download HTTrack Website Copier (it’s free) https://www.httrack.com/ and back up your blogs on regular basis. All it takes is a click, and you’ll never lose anything again.

I do all my writing on my iPad and don’t use my laptop. That’s likely part of the problem.

I am not a techie, but do you know how to synchronize data between your iPad and laptop? Then you can back it up from your laptop. Barring that, there must be a way to back up data on mobile devices as well. At the very least, you can save it to the cloud, such as Google OneDrive which is also free.

I’ve never synchronized data from iPad to laptop but I’m going to try this week. I’ve transferred some of my book from WordPress to my iPad Word app. I’m hoping I can then synchronize it to Word on my computer.
