Images disappearing

[chris252]

Hi,

Up until about 30 minutes ago everything with was fine with the website I was working on and then all of the images disappeared - going on to the server by FTP reveals that they have all been deleted????? I've tried to reupload the images back to the server via FTP and have restored most of them - is there any chance you have a back up of the site that you can restore as when I go into the media library in word press, the thumbnails of the images are not displaying properly and I fear that the same thing is going to happen again. I'm shortly going to by upgrading to a premium account but am really concerned that this is going to happen again??

Thanks

x10hosting now deletes files 10 MiB (or larger) in size - that have been on the server (in any folder) for more than about 4 hours - from non-upgraded free-hosting accounts only

the 4 hours time limit allows users to upload and extract site backups - and is not for short term file hosting...

you can store files that are 10 MiB or larger - at a file-hosting service (which x10hosting free-hosting is not) then link to them from your free-hosting Web page
