The "no text in this page" messages should be fixable if you go to the Wiki URL Manager and click '[Rebuild Page URLs]'.

This is happening to me again Pegusus. My collectibles catalog is showing the message, my other one is just white screen. I tried to rebuild and save namespaces again, it didn't help.

I disabled it for the moment.

What did you change before this started happening?

[towermat]

Its funny because I had not had time to mess with it at all for several days when it happened. The last thing I did was apply the wiki format to another forum on the site called Tower Connections.

And your server logs have not listed any fatal errors for the blank (white) pages?

Did you recently change the Parent Forum of Towerpedia or one of its parent forums?
- It's likely that at some point VaultWiki thought you meant to un-wikify this forum and cleared all the wiki data. Since that time, the wiki data was not re-populated, so rebuilding a cache from it has not worked. What you can do is change the Parent Forum of the affected wiki forums, such that they are no longer in the wiki, then change them back. For Towerpedia this may be more difficult, because you would have to first un-assign it from the Namespace Manager by selecting some other forum temporarily.

This is a scenario we try to catch using a variety of methods, but it's possible that one or two possibilities were missed, or that another modification interfered with the process. This is an issue we intend to avoid through a rewrite that moves articles to a separate content-type, but for now, we just have to try to patch all the ways it can happen. So if you can remember anything at all that was done recently re: forum administration, it could be extremely helpful in future prevention.

Applying the wiki-mode to another forum should not have done this - but if the forum used to be a parent or child of Towerpedia and was moved to a new location, that might be related.

I don't think I did that but I may have. I will give all of that a try Pegusus, thanks again.

First part worked great, the catalog is back in business. For the white pages on Towerpedia I am a bit stuck. I am not seeing where to "unassign" in the name space manager. The "edit" link for Towerpedia is much different than the others.

[pegasus]

For the white pages in Towerpedia you need to check your server's error logs for PHP errors or turn on display_errors in php.ini

Hmmm...I will check that out.

New problem though. I am getting this in the URL's section

Two or more pages in the wiki have the URL /showwiki.php?title=Collectiblesead+Zone+The+-+Easton+HC+1985. Since only the first version will be visible, you should modify the live page to reflect the content all the pages.

Use the link to the right to edit the Live version. The text for each version is listed below for your convenience. You can only delete the excess pages using this form.

Not sure what to do there but I guess one of my mods named it the wrong thing?

[pegasus]

It's possible that whatever caused your Collectibles namespace to blank before also caused a page conflict, which is why you are now seeing that. This problem and the methods of dealing with it are discussed here: http://www.vaultwiki.org/manual/Managing-Page-Conflicts

I am so lost on this now pegasus, sorry to be such a pain. I sent you a PM.
