Empty articles after update
Hello,
I imported my db dump I had as backup, then uploaded all the files. Well now the website is visible, but if I want to edit some article, the pane is empty. I guess saving the empty article overwrites the existing one, so I will not do that. Diagnostics is ok.
Thanks for any help.

Check if the dump contains articles.
Check in the database if it contains articles.
Probably one or both don’t contain articles, or you’re connecting to a different database or using a different table prefix.

Thanks ruud, the textpattern table does contain articles, and they are visible on the frontend, but I just cannot edit them…
Can I see the SQL done by the admin somehow? Sort of debug thing?

Sure, switch to debug mode in the preferences and then view the source code / HTML of the page.

Did you check your diagnostics? Something may have gone wrong with the uploading of the files for which case your will be able to remedy by uploading those files again

I do my best editing after I click on the submit button.

Strange that this only affected the admin side. Thanks for letting us know what caused it.

Well actually I had all those question marks in the frontend, did not think they were related. Doing debug in the admin I saw a SQL error breaking the flow, but did not investigate the error content.
