Ghost posts in dashboard.

[Neerajmahajan1]

I am facing the following problems with the plugin:

1 There are many thumbnails that don't have any post attached with them when I click on them either there is no link attached or I see an error 403

2 Some posts have been titled as undefined

3 If a post is categorized in 2 different categories it is not visible in both the categories

4 when a category has large number of posts and I wish to view the entire post range and then reorder them together. Here the plugin doesn't work properly. The reordered posts are not visible in the frontend

Please help me I don't want to switch to other plugin

my email id is neerajmahajan801@gmail.com

Did you upgrade the plugin from v1.x to 2?

[Neerajmahajan1]

Thanks for the prompt reply. As suggested by you we have opted for version 2.9.2 but still the problem persists. Please advise.

I am not asking you which version you are running, please read the question

Did you upgrade the plugin from v1.x to 2?

Were you using version 1.x and then upgraded to 2? Or did you install the plugin for the first time with version 2.x?

Earlier we were using version 1.1.6 then we deleted the plugin and installed version 2 and upgraded it to version: 2.9.2

v 1.x stores ranking data into a custom table which is not deleted when you uninstall the plugin.

v2 uses the wp_postmeta to store ranking of each post, however, it also tries to seek any existing ranking from your v1.x table in order to reconstruct any pre-existing order. Not deleting the custom table will continually insert spurious data into your ranking ist.

What you need to do

1. Delete the custom table from v1.x (Settings->Reorder)
2. reset your rankings in your post Reorder page, check the checkbox to enable the reset button. This will delete you existing ranking including any ghost post.
3. reorder your posts.

you should be good to go.
