My Flags Suddenly Disappeared!
Guys, please help me. Yesterday, I just used flag counter in my wordpress blog which you can visit here. www.erwinagapay.wordpress.com
When I logged in this afternoon, I saw that there were some flags from my country, the Philippines, and also from the US, Thailand, Germany, Qatar and Australia.
Then I decided to add some more widgets in my Wordpress Blog (without touching the flag counter widget) and when I saved all the changed, boom! The flags all disappeared! Is that really natural? When you edit your widget settings, thbe flag counter will go back to zero?
Out of frustration, I edited my flag counter and retyped the address again so now it's again back to zero. It really makes me upset so now I will never edit my widgets again!

Actually, when I was editing my widgets (I added the Top Post widgets and other stuff), I left the Flag Counter Widget untouched. When I saved the changes, I saw that the flags disappeared!
After that, since I thought the flags weren't gonna come back, I used another code, this time showing up to maximum of 30 flags. Is that really natural? When you edit widgets in your blog, the flags disappear? So that means, I will never get to edit my widgets anymore because my flags will just get back to zero?

Re: My Flags Suddenly Disappeared!
if you used a new code it will start at 0.......the same code will not lose your flags
do you have the original code?

Nope, that definitely shouldn't happen. It never does.
251/251 countries and 3,847/3,847 flags collected.

Yeah I did because I was frustrated so I'm starting all over again now .
The thing that bugged me is that it came back to zero when I just edited my widgets and didn't edit nor touch the code whatsoever. I just edited my widgets like what I said, when I saved it and looked at my blog the flags disappeared! Thinking it was just an error because of a slow internet connection, I logged out and logged in again just to find out that the flags were indeed lost.
So out of frustration, I just changed the code enabling the maximum number of flags to 30 (the previous one was 21) and knowing that I will never be able to bring back all those flags that were mysteriously lost!
