Flash drives are reall cheap and are big enough these days to take a complete site template eithout any problems. Also establish (if you haven't already) a standard methodology, eg all assets go into the Assets folder, etc. That way you'll never be left with unlinked images in the case of another drive mishap.
    Thank you Frank, I appreciate your advice. I do think there's a couple of other goofed up pages, but regardless, I'm going to update the pages "by hand."

    Onward!
    When you get a chance Frank, could you either tell me or point me in the right direction on how to import a page into an existing site? I need to know that and if it's possible.

    Thank you m'dear!

    In Site View.... File > Insert template.

    Before you go there, select the page in your site where you want the template page(s) to be inserted. The page or pages will be inserted as child page(s) of that page.

    Good Morning!

    Well, not sure how, but the site is Complete!! Everything is there and accounted for - newest pages - AND, I can even export a template without errors! OH Happy Days! I think the night before I was getting lost in too many copies and versions and assets that it made things confusing and frustrating. But thanks to you guys and my perseverance, I did it!

    I wanted to mention this earlier, if I haven't already... when I first started using NOF with version 3, I learned and taught myself until I could put a pretty cool website together. There were a lot of technical things that I skimmed over if it didn't affect the immediate look and function of the website. I developed some bad habits continuing to work that way until... until something happened and I lost a website. My main point of telling you this is don't take shortcuts and BACKUP your work! More specifically, when done for the day, export your website as a template! Every day. Just like you learn the hard way about 'saving your work' in general. Know what I mean?

    So that's my story. Aren't you glad you asked?

    Thanks again for your advice you guys. Seriously don't think I could do some of the stuff I do without your help!!
    YIPPPPEEEEEEEEEE!!! Hope y'all had a wonderful weekend. Now get back to work!!
    xo,
