Menus and content no longer show up on website

Post by Markthomas » Mon Mar 11, 2019 4:30 am

Hello there, first off I am not the most proficient person when it comes to the backend of websites, but I'm what I have. ;)

About a month ago our website quit loading and there was just an error code about a mySQL error. I contacted SiteGround about the problem thinking that would be a good place to start. After using their chat support they decided to clear a cache(?) and that got rid of the mySQL error message and brought back a stripped down version of the website.

The look of the website was correct, but all of the menus, links, and pages were no longer showing up on the website. Everything is still showing up under the Admin panel, but it will not let me change anything. Every time I try to change a module, article, etc., it says I cannot access it through that link.

Any help on this would be awesome, and greatly appreciated! I really enjoy creating the content, but some of this stuff gets me confused easily.

I have run the FPA, and have the info ready to post.

Thanks again for your time.

Mark

Thank you for replying toivo. Below is the info from the FPA. I should mention I am trying to update the site to 3.x in the next 2 weeks, but to get the old one working in the short time would be great. Thanks again.

Sometimes the problem is staring you right in the face and you still miss it. :)

I changed the php version back to a compatible one for 2.5.28 and the website is up and working correctly for now. If you see any other issues I would appreciate any input though.

Thanks again for your time, and sorry for not catching that before posting.
