It sounds like you are experiencing a Google Dance Phillup. This makes rankings fluctuate and is totally normal. If you Google your site in quotes and see it pop up, you're fine.
The fact that some posts appear is already a good sign. Sounds like a Google dance to me. As long as you're not copying/pasting content from other sites to your own or doing anything black hat, I would not worry about this.
Check your cookies or search in incognito with your browser this will give you your true ranking.
I don't know how to check my cookies but I did search in incognito and no results. My website just isn't indexed in google anymore. It was yesterday and this is the problem. I checked Bing and everything is working just fine.
The only thing I can think of is Googles ranking are dynamic. I don't think it has to do with the rollout of their new Fred update. If you keep posting and keep you site active it will become more sticky toward the top rankings.
Just make sure you do not have any elements that Google is penalizing you for and you will be fine.
I don't have any errors or messages in google search console. My rankings didn't just drop, they disappeared. My site isn't indexed by google anymore. I was worried that I may have been hit with a "scraped content" penalty because I use a few different resources but there's no such thing as originality when you're talking about the same specs.

Why did my google rankings disapear?

If you are penalized by Google you will be able to see it in the Google's webmaster tools. You go search traffic, manual actions. If it says "No manual webspam actions found” you are not.
If there is a message it means you are penalized and they will tell you why.
"No manual webspam actions found." I'm just confused because yesterday when searching site:(website) all pages and posts appeared. Today there is nothing and a huge drop in traffic. There's no indications in the search console as to why this may be happening. I suppose I'll just wait and see if it corrects itself.
Thank you!
If your site is new this behavior is not uncommon. Your rankings will eventually "settle" but they will always fluctuate. A bit.
As for the difference between Google and Bing, different search engines, different algorithms.

I created a custom links menu and organized all my pages underneath associated submenus but they're not being displayed when I hover over the menu.
Hi Phillup, this video covers sub menus pretty well. See if it helps: Enhancing Your Website "Experience"
Is the menu selected for display, did you save the menu after you made it. Does it show up in the "page view" .. Should be no problem..
Yes, the menu is saved and is displayed on the webpage along with some submenus, but the pages I've organized underneath these submenus aren't being displayed. For example on my website menu it goes (Hardware -> Computers -> associated pages) The problem is that the pages organized beneath the computers submenu aren't being displayed.

Also confused as to why my site is doing great in Bing and awful in google.

Thank you, much appreciated!
