It has been almost a week since I turned off Archon Digital from public view mainly because of two really important things I had to do. First was that the MySQL database of the site was damaged beyond repair and has been in an unusable state since mid September 2009 due to problems related me having improperly uninstalling WP-Supercache at some point while trying out some new plugins.
Second, was to finally upload version 5 of Archon Digital which has been ready and has been put on hold since the end of August 2009. Everything has also been put on hold for a few more days as the kids got the flu and I had my hands tied between work and the kids.
While I’m finally happy that I was able to restore the site to a working state, a lot of comments were never recovered and to me it was a lot of really great conversations made in the past nine months.
![Needs a Re-design <p>This site needs some drastic changes in its basic design. Posted during the 2nd version of Archon Digital I played around with different types of wordpress loops as well as other cross-browser hacks in CSS to help get this site to look the way it is.

Maybe all the effort Archon Digital has put into gaining back pagerank has been sort of working so far. For sometime now Archon Digital’s Google Pagerank has been dropped to zero after experimenting with two paid [...]</p>](http://archondigital.com/wp-content/themes/archondigital/timthumb.php?src=http://archondigital.com/wp-content/uploads/pagerank2.jpg&h=100&w=100&zc=1&q=100)
![Achondigital version 3.0 <p>After a few weeks of trying to find some free time to finally work on this site, ArchonDigital ver.3.0 is now live on the world wide web. Work on this new theme design started immediately after posting “Needs a Re-design“.

It’s really frustrating to find out a lot of really great conversations were lost during the breakdown. But what the heck that’s life and it’s only a blog so I should take it only as a minor setback.

yeah it would be best to backup regularly and to make copies of your back up in two or more separate physical locations
