Ok, another way in to reset permissions etc is like this:
login to your site,
go to site administration page,
enter this address into your browser
http://yoursite.com/modules/system/admin.php?fct=groups

This should return the groups settings page

Then you have to give the webmaster all system admin rights. Make sure you tick everything.

update the settings. You should be able to see your blocks again.

As I see on a previous post, you are running 2.0.5.1
This version has a disabled XoopsErrorHandler, which means, as far as I know, that not every warning is outputted.

What you wrote is incorrect.
XoopsErrorHandler ignores the setting of error_reporting().
This cause a lot of useless Notice originally controlled not to be displayed.

Disabling XoopsErrorHandler only means that the feature of PHP debug returns to be same as 2.0.3

Certainly, the block administration is not easy to use, I think.
I'll add links to administrations of each blocks included in the modules that I'm developping (piCal, myAlbum-P, etc...)

I believe it is 2.0.5.1
My webhost has Fantastico and it installed it. Everything was fine but now it's not.


Quick tip on Fantastico. If you need to update Xoops, you may run into permission problems becasue the owner is actually the server, not the user (you) I had to reinstall into my site root to get full control over the file permissions. The problem I had was that I could not over write files via ftp that were owned by the server. I had to manualy delete any files that were to be updated and 'then' upload the new files. It was an oddity that really irked me with my host and Fantastico. Plus, Fantastico will not allow you to install in your web root, it has to be in a sub directory, like yoursite.com/xoops, which is pretty hard for me to live with.

Anywho...

Welcome to the community & Happy Xoop-ing!

Thanks everyone for helping me try to figure this out. Everything is back now and working. I was extremely frustrated and it was awesome to see you all reach out to help. Well I finally found out what was up. I mailed support at my webhost and this is what they told me. "Quote:
The issue was because of some of the errors in the /tmp partition on the server. We have corrected it and now everything is working fine.


Thanks again everyone! [quote]

Re: Help... Missing blocks in Blocks Administration

Sometimes it is the webhost's fault. It's always a good idea to check with your support people for your webhost provider too when you encounter problems with your site that happen out of the blue.

I'm very glad for you, that you got your site working right again, LilDevil!

Please take a look to admin->system->groups
Take a look to Block Access Rights.
There you can normally find a link to every block which exist,
independently of how you configured the block occurence.
(This mean on which module page this block should be seen)
Open the block configuration and take a look at 'Visible in'.
Per default the block should be shown in all pages.
May be there isn't something selected.



thanks robekras, that's what did it in for me. any idea how this happened? all those checkboxes were unchecked in my administrator account.
