Although I did not "restart" Opera - I never logged out of my WP blog and did also not close Opera, I simply shut down my laptop.

Whoa, stop the presses -

Just now the text in my editor fields became visible again. I checked some twenty posts, at the beginning, the middle and the end, and I might assume all 2K+ have been restored. Furthermore all functionalities behave as expected.

Well, either the issue resolved itself, or else Opera staff pushed a fix or perhaps WP staff. If so, then thanks to whomever was responsible for the fix!

Very relieved. And let's hope the issue won't return. I need to say this is the very first time since I started using Opera (12 years) it fails me.

@werdermouth

The very fact that the blog works normally with other browsers strongly suggests the issue is with Opera and not with WP. I am not even using a template, nor, as noted above any extensions of any kind at all. However, I agree nothing can be ascertained with any certainty unless staff of either WP or Opera confirms.

Okay, here is the bug ID: DNAWIZ-69928.

I need to get some sleep now, so temporarily offline, be back after rest, greetings to you all from Amsterdam

I think I did before deinstalling and reinstalling. Did not work.
Would I have to repeat this, even on the newly installed version?

@leocg

Yes, I already mentioned that, the problem is not with viewing the site as logged out, anyone can then see the public posts, and when I am logged in I can also see the private posts. The problem is that IN the blog editors the posts are not there..

I also already mentioned that a WP staffer told me that others were experiencing the same issue. The fact that they are not reporting the issue on here does not mean all is well.
As noted, I have not enabled Adlblocker and VPN. I have never used them and am not using them now.

@yanta

Thank you for your response. Makes sense.
Here is the link to my blog: https://mabelamber.wordpress.com/
Here is the link to the WP forum post: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/help-needed-this-is-serious/#post-3354628

But is that visible for anyone not logged in?

Anyway, I just submitted a bug report to the "Opera bug report wizard".

So far so good. Thank you everyone for your helpfulness

@yanta said in My entire blog empty when using Opera!:

opera://flags/#chromium-ua-compatibility

Hello, thank you for the directions.

I did as instructed, relaunched Opera. Then accessed the blog. The blog editors are still totally empty, but now I can actually type in text in the editor field, and paste text (using CTRL + V, 'paste' is not available on the right click menu). So then the text is in the editor, I click "update" and hoopla, gone is all the text.

I think I will just give up on Opera. Too dangerous to use now for anything. My trust is gone. Perhaps in some days the bug has fixed itself.

Again: is staff even aware? I am not the only one experiencing this issue.

@leocg

How do I use that string please? Step by step, I am not versed in handling this kind of fixes.

By the way, is a staff member aware of this issue? Because from the WP help forum I gathered that there were other Opera users duped by this bug.

@leocg
The page looks just fine. But there is no text in the editor. As if nothing has been written. This concerns ALL 2,289 blog entries.
I did not check with the Chromium based version of Edge, didn't even know such a thing existed. Anyway, right now I am logged in to Chrome and all is well (knock on wood).

Hello Leocg,

The problem can't be in the editor, since using a different browser, Edge, all is fine. No, no extensions. No Adblockers.
Then I also noticed that there is a CSS issue, on some page the page elements show up as a vertical row of blue links, left hand side.

EDIT - By the way, I uninstalled and reinstalled but no joy. And all the other Chromium based browsers behave just fine. No probs at all.

Hi all!

Okay, so I called up my WordPress blog, I logged in and guess what.... the entire blog empty! Not a trace of any of the 2000+ entries, written between yesterday and October 24 2010.
Strangely on the public facing pages a couple which I had kept public were visible. But once inside the blog.... just blank.

Then too, when I call up the login page, everything seems borked, Huge letters which do not even fit the page say WORPRESS, to the left hand side there is a column of links instead of the pictorial page elements so I am guessing that is a CSS issue.

I almost got a heart attack and hastily logged in with a different browser, and noticed that every blog post is still there, also as logged in.

So this is no doubt an Opera issue, as nothing else is out of order on my laptop. I have been using Opera for many years, in fact since 2007, but I am going to call it quits. If some browser bug wipes your entire blog... come on!
And this is in fact a terrible goodbye since Opera has that fantastic spelling correction which is absent on all other browsers. But honestly, if a browser suffers from such serious issues as to actually EMPTY an entire blog.... need I say more.

Thanks for reading people, greetings,

Mabel Amber
