Request to GT to implement safeguard
I accidently deleted a whole forum as I clicked "Delete Record" instead of "Modify Record". Unfortunately "Delete Record" does not require confirmation. An additional screen or popup box with a simple message like "You are about to delete this forum and all threads. Do you wish to continue?" would have saved me a lot of trouble. As it stands, one accitental click on the Delete button does just that and there's no going back.

Please GT, either move the button to a not so obvious place or install a safeguard so it's not so easy to do.

Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll be looking into adding a javascript confirmation dialog for future releases. I'm assuming you're talking about the delete record in the admin panel.

Yes, Admin / Forums / List All / Modify then at the bottom there are two buttons - Modify Record and Delete Record next to each other.
