XF 2.2 Polls disappeared

[thunderclap82]

After migrating from MyBB to Xenforo all the polls appeared properly. We've even created several polls since migrating to Xenforo. Today we noticed the vast majority of our polls are now gone. Any idea why this happened? I'm not seeing a setting anywhere the purges old polls. Thoughts?

Check on an unaltered default theme.

Switched to Xenforo default and they’re still missing. I also went into the database and looked and they’re definitely gone. Finally I looked in the logs and not seeing them deleted. They just seem to have disappeared.

I wonder if it has to do with the new thread types. In other words a poll is now a type of thread, like an article, or question. I am not sure what happens if you change types of move threads but it may be connected.

None of that has changed since the import. The only major thing I did was fix the forum permissions. I wonder if when I did that it deleted polls? If so that seems like a really bad design flaw.

You might be best with a ticket.

Changing permissions doesn't affect content and wouldn't result in polls being deleted.

Some other action is responsible.

If the content is missing from the database as you state, then you will need to restore from a backup.
