 * The built-in repair has its issues. Use PHPMYADMIN from your hosting control 
   panel to check and repair the tables in your database.

 * I had a clone of an earlier version, so I tried to merge by transferring over
   the backup files to the clone. I guess I should clone the db for the posts? as
   that’s the main issue. The backup didn’t really do anything though.. I transferred
   the plugin files over as well.. Basically, nothing happened.. It was pretty underwhelming.
 * I was searching through my mysql db earlier to see if I could save any of the
   pending posts that were removed. Do you know where I would verify which table
   I would be searching? So far my queries have not shown anything useful when searching
   under post titles in the different db’s.
 * my web host says they will see if they could resolve the issue, or do a roll 
   back. I’ll keep you posted.
 * Many thanks,
