    • hi tomas,

      you should contact your host, most hosts run regular backups and should be able to restore your site.

    • Hum, I'll try to contact them tomorrow but don't really think they will help. Just in case they will not be able, still would be happy if anyone would explain how to restore web is possible when only DB is left.

      Thank you, Kat!

    • hi tomas,

      first thing to do is get a backup of your database. when your site just disappeared like that, then maybe you got hacked or your host has some major technical problem. i can't think of any other reason, why a site would suddenly be gone.

      so a backup of your database is the first thing to do now.

      i also think that you should probably look for another host...

      then create a all new database, then run a rocketlauncher install with this new database.
      this will give you a copy of the demo site including all extensions and the demo data.

      then in your global configurations in the joomla backend, you can point the joomla install to use your old database. (you will of course not have the demo data anymore, because that's in the other database.)

      in the future, make sure to regularly backup your site (1. the joomla files and 2. your database).
      joomlapack is a great program to use for that. www.joomlapack.net

    • hi again,

      glad to hear you got part of your site back.
      not sure exactly what you mean?
      could you attach a screenshot with annotations to explain a bit better?

      thanks, kat :)
