XF 2.2 Accidentally deleted a sub-forum. HELP!

[donwon]

I was cleaning up some old forums and by sheer idiocy deleted a sub-forum that has over 5000 threads and very important discussions. We do have nightly backups taking place.

I have reached out to our server admin but while waiting thought I would come here.

How bad a shape am I in here?

You've got a backup so you likely can run queries to export/import.

ugh, i've done this too

it should just go to some recycle bin type area.

best bet is to restore the backup for the post table after truing it up with just the missing records.

Thread 'Provide the option of moving all threads when deleting a forum'

Oct 24, 2010

Currently when deleting a forum there is no option to mass move all the threads within that forum and instead all threads will be deleted.

It would be useful to have an option similar to that when deleting a forum with sub-forums; to be able to move the threads into another forum.
