Thanks again, your quick replies are comforting.

Thanks for looking into it. Chrome, Explorer and Opera it was all the same. I deleted the book, then recreated it from scratch and now I see it working, so something caused it to go blank, but I wish I could replicate it.

One comment on the free version: while you do state (down under) one can use free version for only one book, I would not call this bit as prominently displayed. I did not see it, then when second project was attempted I found out a confirmation. At the same time I could NOT find such thing on plugins site and there is no reason to hide this and in fact’, I would suggest adding a short section detailing free vs. pro version.

I like how it works, so when I get to a point of needing it on larger scale I will have no trouble paying current price. It would probably help, if you had a volume discount though for those who maintain more than one site. Just my 2 cents. It is slick and functional for what my opinion is worth.

One more question I have is:

how does restoring database ONLY, reflect on the site operation, meaning the site itself is NOT fully restored from back up, but rather the database only, and the are differences in not only content but also plugins installed and/or activated, different WP versions etc. Can this approach create conflicts?

Thanks a lot bcworkz, really appreciate the time taken to answer in a such a detail. Looks like I have a few ways of trying to fix this and will probably first take the table renaming route.

I’m also reshaping the plugin map all around, so perhaps that will lead me to the live preview problem. Have deleted all no longer supported plugins, but no change yet. For the time being I’ll try a few things and return here if more questions come up.

Let me ask this instead of above: say (using the back up, so called complete back-up), I first completely delete WP from public_html as well as SQL table linked to it, then run a restore from that full back-up.

Am I correct saying that this would bring back (as recorded in the complete back-up) WP version and all files, and restoring SQL table would essentially close the loops and site would (should) appear as when it was last seen at back-up time?

I could do this under a different domain just to try it out and then look into either migrating to previous domain or redo the restore at new location again.

Case closed in a sense of my problem, but I think anyone with some input on this issue could still help somebody, especially since I do not know what was done to fix it.

And just to anticipate, this has started BEFORE any plugins (other than default ones) were installed
