Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted February 2, 20231 yr Hello, I am trying to unarchive a topic. I clicked the Moderation Actions drop down and chose "Unarchive". The topic still shows as archived. Now "Unarchive" is no longer displayed in the drop down. Edited February 2, 20231 yr by David N.
February 2, 20231 yr Author Solution Never mind, it ended up working! I suppose it takes about a minute.
February 2, 20231 yr Yes, it can take some time. Unarchiving a topic will only flag it for unarchiving, the real unarchiving happens via a background task in the background.
February 2, 20231 yr Author Great, thanks Daniel. Is there a way for me to unarchive all the archived topics? I didn't realize that moving to the Cloud would archive all those topics and I surely still want them showing up in search results. The user guide states that archiving "is a power-user option designed for communities with millions of posts and a long history" — my community is only 140k topics and 850k posts.
February 2, 20231 yr You can adjust archive settings from Community>Forum>Settings>Archiving. Anything outside of that setting will be unarchived

February 7, 20231 yr It can take quite some time, as it runs with traffic on your site, and is intentionally a gradual background process.

This process can take some time, especially if there is a large amount of records to go. The background tasks purposely takes it's time not to cause any inadvertent issues on your community. However, if you would like to provide the URL to the topic, we can verify what is happening.
February 21, 20231 yr Author It seems that anything around 2017 and older is still archived: https://www.logicprohelp.com/forums/forum/1-logic-pro/page/830/ Edited February 21, 20231 yr by David N.
February 21, 20231 yr I am not seeing any errors when processing through the unarchives manually. It looks like these items are slowly unarchiving based off of going forward a few pages. Due to the amount of topics it is unarchiving, this can take some time.
February 20, 2024Feb 20 Author Seems like unarchiving stopped at around Feb 1 2018. No new topics have been unarchived since October 2023. Archiving is disabled in my ACP. Edited February 20, 2024Feb 20 by David N.
February 20, 2024Feb 20 If you disabled, did you click to unarchive? Otherwise it will just sit there

February 20, 2024Feb 20 I have made a change there. Please let us know if thats not making any difference in a few days
