Hi Sue.
The files are not and never have been stored as a database. Each transcript is stored on it's own, unique page, The recent transcripts page only provided a link to the transcript.
As a page of "Recent" transcripts, the page as it was no longer held any meaning as the last entry that Brian made was 18 months ago.
All the transcripts should still be where they were before... there just is no longer a link from the recent transcripts page.
It may be that some files do not have a link from the proper alpha page. These I will find and correct as I go through the transcripts. This will take time as there are almost 200 of them.
Only "new" or Unlinked transcripts will now go on the recent transcripts page, and then only for 1 month.
