I'm new to web designing and have been using Umbraco to modify and update a website that my company has. I update everything in the site directly via extranet acessing the Umbraco Back Office (the admin page, by default ~/umbraco). I don't have direct acess to the server my company uses, so please keep that in mind.

Since I started using Umbraco I noticed that sometimes the nodes, content and anything else I add on the website just disappear over the weekend or after a day or two. Most of the time what happens is that the content on the website itself is updated but the content in the Back Office is outdated. Because of this, I have to rewrite everything I did.

This is an odd behavior. I tried a lot of stuff, looked for similar problems everywhere, but I can't find a solution. I tried republishing the entire site, so that cache would be deleted, but it doesn't solve the problem. Even worse is that this happens in a random way, sometimes not happening at all.

Umbraco version is 4.7.2. I appreciate any help, as this is so frustrating I think I'll eventually give up if it stays that way.

Is your site using SQL CE for its database?

If so, that may be the probem. Here's the discussion in the issue tracker: http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-4621

try and running appending this to you URL while logged into the backend to ensure the cache is refreshed properly http://example.com/umbraco/dialogs/republish.aspx?xml=true , replace the example.com with your sites url.
