Deleted my board and regretted it

[gidgetee]

I deleted one of my boards and I’m regretting it.

If it hasn't been to long since it was deleted, you could probaly get it reinstated, (unless of course you are talking about a board within a forum - it can be recreated, but not with its contents).

[Retread]

gidgetee, as Nscalerr mentioned, it really depends on what you mean by 'board'.

If mean one of the boards within a forum you own, then the contents of that board are gone forever.

If you're using board as slang for an entire forum, you can make a thread on the Support Board and request to have the forum restored. This will restore the forum to the state it was in just before you used the Delete Forum function. If you deleted any posts, member accounts, categories, or boards, those will not be restored.

To avoid unnecessary work by the ProBoards Admins, it's best to use Maintenance Mode to take your forum offline until you're absolutely certain you never want to use that forum again.

I’ll start up my forum again. I shouldn’t have been hasty. I was getting lots of visitors but a total lack of members after three months I got discouraged. The 24 hour guest counter can discourage you big time. I’m going to add a basic hit counter before I go live.

If you mean [removed], you can probably have it restored without starting from scratch. It's up to you though. I'll support you either way. Just remember that forums generally require a lot of patience. Maybe you can have a few people you know in real life help you with the initial activity. Before you know it, people will join, and you'll barely be able to keep up with all the activity. Best of luck!

You just need to be patient. I get frustrated to. Hang in there and Make it fun. Don't stress out over it.

The live feed and flag counter really help to keep positive. My traffic is down low today.

The Open for Discussion is about the general running of a forum, not specifics about a particular forum or for advertising. There is a Get Opinions About Your Forum board and an Advertising board that are there for that purpose.

I have removed all posts that were considered off-topic for this board.
