In my experience the update from 3.0.x directly to 3.2.x times out on some setups, sometimes even silently (it does succeed without problems on other configurations but since something went wrong on your side I wouldn't take any risks).
If your database exceeds ± 300MB, just a case I would go for an upgrade in steps, and on localhost (that usually reduces the risk of timeouts)
first 3.0.11 > 3.0.14
second 3.0.14> 3.1.latest (9 I think)
third 3.1. latest >3.2.x
Always keep backups of the intermediate results!!!
It's imperative that your 3.0.x is cleaned before upgrading: in other words: undo all modifications (database modifications), have prosilver and UK English language as only and default style and language.

I did the upgrade in stages. The missing posts are still missing.
Are you saying that posts which were present in 3.0.11 have disappeared in 3.0.14 (I find that highly improbable), or later?
Is the database version now 3.2.3?
edit: the latest version of 3.1 = 3.1.12 and not 3.1.9 as I incorrectly thought.

Final upgrade.
So everything is in 3.1 but the upgrade to 3.2.3 seems to be incomplete?
Just to make sure, compare your post and topic count from 3.0.11 to your 3.1.x situation (and then also 3.2.3).
