Get back deleted links (articles)
We are using GLinks as an articles database.

One of our editors deleted a category. We did a build of the database. We can still see the deleted articles when we type in their ID, how can we restore these deleted articles to the front end?

I'm not aware, that LSQL has undelete link feature.
You should check the article in an older database backup, if you have one...

What do you mean you can still see the deleted articles when you type in their ID? Is this on the admin side or user side (dynamic or static pages)?

Hi,

This isn't a built in feature, but assuming your using the build_detailed_path/ID.html format, you could use this plugin (free);

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Actually, I figured out why the links were still there. They were never actaully deleted. The Editor had moved the entire category accidentally to a different category. I thought he had deleted the category.

I simply returned the category to it's former place and everything went back to normal - but I was in quite a tailspin for two days.

Thanks for your suggestions!

heheh.. glad you sorted it. I know how scary it can be <G> (thus why we do daily backups on the database, and all other important stuff with Auto_Backup <end shameless plug> =))

Cheers
