Red files aren't being shared. Right click on a file > share file - it should show in black.
To share a block of files... click on the first file that you want to share, hold down the Shift key & click on the last file that you want to share. Now you'll see a block highlighted. Right click > share file.

If the files aren't immediately shared (ie still don't show in black) then refresh the page or restart LW.

Unless you had stopped sharing those files, or removed a folder from sharing, maybe your LW preferences became corrupted - that could explain why your previously shared files weren't being shared any more.
