Have looked in database to see differences - but can't find any ... Changed setup to show queries etc - [ but not sure what to look for ] .... there is no source code readable for the page - but the queries do show up ...the address bar shows I am in the right spot - but no luck ... Realizing that I need to upgrade - but this just seemed to happen on its own ? Any suggestions as to what/where I should look further ?? Thanks to all in advance ... DR

I've a vague memory that it may have related to url rewriting. I think the situation was avoided by later releases though.

Solution: You probably have a broken mysql table index. Use phpmyadmin to look at the structure of your wsnlinks_links table. At the bottom is a list of indexes. If 'wsnindex' lists the same field twice, delete it. Then re-run upgrade.php." Well I didn't find that specifically for wsn_links - but in "Categories" I did find this "duplication"?: - [please see attachment] Not sure how it got this way ... Could this be messing up some of the categories - so that they are not visible ? Thanks DR Attached Files: unique and index keys.png (7 KB, 230 downloads)

Once again - error on my part was causing certain Categories to show blank: See this thread for the error of my ways: Post #9 https://www.webmastersite.net/forums/thread/6351 - and once again - Paul - "WSN Links is fantastic" Thanks DR
