I'm obviously one of the many who's blog got whiped clean. I found the page with the old entries but didn't have time to copy and past them. Now I went back and tried to do it again and they are not there. Please, please please...help me find them. The money and time that went into that is way more than I want to discuss. My brain does not have the capacity to remember what i wrote either. If you can give me another option to retrieve them I will be forever grateful.

Bgagnonius,

All of the pages that Google has cached on your site can be found here:

http://www.google.com/search?q=site:http://blogs.bootsn...-23,GGGL:en&filter=0

For those that have had the Google cache update their homepage, you can do a search of Google for http://blogs.bootsnall.com/USERNAME - substitute your username in place of USERNAME and you should see most/all of your posts.

You may have to click the link at the bottom of the page that says: repeat the search with the omitted results included.

OK, I figured out the "cache" thing in Google, and found my other two entries, so I'm set, now. Yea!!

Wow!

Just Looked at my blog after a week without anything and the last 16 post I put up are gone. Bummer.

Searching now to try and find everything.

Hi I have tried looking for my more recent blog entries but can't find any thing. Does this mean i have to rewrite the last month an a half?

Hi

I cant seem to recover any of my posts past August sixth:

I have tried the methods listed but still cant find any:

can someone recommend another course of action; or maybe i am missing something

THANKS

This thread has been helpful, but I'm still having problems accessing my blogs. I can get the first part of one of them, but the rest since August are completely gone! I can get to a page where I can see the links with the titles, but when I click them, it tells me they do not exist. Please help me, it's just devestating if they've disappeared forever!!!

Where did you find the page with all the links? The problem is that the links on the page will try to take you back to the boots page where the article no longer exists. You need to right click and "copy link location", and then go up to the address bar and replace part of the line (the part that read blogs.bootsnall.com/blair/) with the copied text.

The problem now is that many search engines, google and yahoo included have updated their caches with "new" version your site, which, unfortunately is the restored version from the August 17 backup, so I couldn't find your more recent entries at either of them.

My turn to find out if my Sept entries are gone forever. I tried the google cache and it only came up with my posting from today-10/2 and then back to 8/16. I've been out of touch in smalltown Aus and didnt even know this missing server crap was going on until about 10 minutes ago. Am I fekked? Please help if possible Chris. Thanks.

Hello - can someone help me with what i need to do to find my lost posts. i don't even care about the pictures - but the posts can't be recreated!!! i lost about 4 or 5 entries from before i left on my trip and now i'm on the road in africa and i have no idea how to get this information back.
Also - i noticed someone asked about how often backups were done but i didn't see an answer - can someone please advise.
i'm completely sick about losing my posts - i don't have a computer on the road so i don't have anything saved. please help!

It looks like you have found many others cahced blog entries but I can't seem to find mine. Any chance you could help with that? Thanks in advance.

I tried to do it myself, but can someone help me find my cached entries?

Thanks

Rob

Is it still possible to make a post with a full size photo as lead in. The directions make it seem like it is possible, but every variation comes out as a thumbnail w/without a link. I like to lead into a section with the money shot.

Any helps appreciated.

Also, is it possible to have a custom designed header instead of a pre set one.

Thanks
Steve

As a quick update to this issue, if you're looking for any images that were uploaded during the period of time where entries were lost we have a page where you can go day-by-day and see all images that were uploaded by all blogs and find the ones that are yours.

Blog images page Aug 17-Sept 22

It may look like there are two versions of each but one is a thumbnail and the other is the full size version. You don't need to upload the images to your blog again, just copy the image URL (right-click, 'copy shortcut' or 'copy link location') and use the 'img' button above your entry editing screen in your blog admin to add the image to your post again.
