I accidentally hit a wrong button & messed up the Fellowship board and can't figure out how to reset it like the others. Could you reset it for me? Thanks so much for your help.

Hi Keith

Loading your forum, i can not see an obvious issue. Could you provide a little more detail about what you did and what you are now seeing.

There's an anchor icon on every thread that's never been there;

There are many topics from this year that aren't showing up at all;

Many of the topics appear to be out of order.

[keithw]

Also, August, September and most of October's posts appear to be missing along with several other months.

It looks like you may have set them to falling. Using the drop down at the top of the list of threads, Select > All and then Action > Moderate > Disable Falling.

Let me know how that goes.

Thanks Craig, that got rid of the icons! They're still out of order and/or missed topics though.

[keithw]

August, September and most of October are still missing.

Now that I look closely, most of every Month isn't showing...

keithw,

Check your forum security log. Does it show that there was a mass deletion of threads?

I suspect that, in the course of doing whatever it is you intended, you ended up deleting almost a page full of threads and applied the falling effect to the page of threads that took the place of the now-deleted threads.

If this is the case, unfortunately user-deleted content cannot be restored. Those threads would be unrecoverable.

[keithw]

Thanks, Derek, I think that's what happened.

keithw - are things settled now?

As far as missing posts, I see on the forum over 2,100 posts created since the first of August, and nothing in the security log indicates a mass deletion of posts/threads, or any recent board/category deletions.
