mrssurv Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 A Mod accidentally deleted a topic (thread). It isn’t showing today in Admin as ‘deleted content’. Is there a way to restore the thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Calvert Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 It depends on what your setting for retaining deleted posts is set to. In the ModeratorCP, look at the Deleted Content section. See if the post is there to restore. I had something similar happen so now I don’t have the deleted content purged until 90 days just to be safe and have plenty of time to catch problems.

Solution Marc Stridgen Posted December 14, 2021 Solution Share Posted December 14, 2021 ModCP > Deleted Content is where you would look, as mentioned above. If it's not there, then the only way you would be able to restore it would be to restore your database entirely to an earlier point in time. You can set up whether items are 'soft' deleted from System>Settings>Posting, within your admin CP. SeNioR- and mrssurv 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an admin, I see the Deleted Content section, but my mods are telling me they do not see this? Is this an ADMIN only feature to access the Deleted Content? Thanks.

Randy Calvert Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 I assume your moderators are not unrestricted moderators. Have you checked their permissions? ACP > Members > Staff > Moderators Find your moderator... under the "Content" tab, do you have "Can manage deleted content?" enabled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
