The script replaces existing ID

The script replaces existing ID
Hi again,

I just updated my whole site and created new templates. I uploaded those templates in the corresponding directory, and clicked build all to update the site with the new design. But now another problem appeared, adding new links to the database, the script gives to those new links an ID that already exists in the database. If i validate it and "build all" the existing link is replaced with the new one. It seems like the script is erasing and starting over the database. I have almost 2000 valid links and i'm getting worried about losing them all.

Could anyone help me with this one???
thanks a lot

Make sure that the number in your linksid.txt file reflects the actual number of links in your database.

Well...looks like my site will not die yet...
It really was the number in the linksid.txt that was somehow reset to 1.

Thanks a lot for your help.
