Re: DELETED MESSAGES?!?!?!?
Ok. I restored a backup of 2 days ago and everything SEEMED ok.
I obviously had a topic DOUBLED (with the new posts and old posts).
So I merged the 2 subforums and again I got only 7 pages.
What should I do?

Re: DELETED MESSAGES?!?!?!?
It's a topic inside a subforum.
When I restore I found 2 "same topics". 1 with the first 73 pages.
The second one with apparently 8 pages, but they seem to be 3.
If I merge them I get 8 pages total and not 80.
I did this twice. Same behaviour.

Re: DELETED MESSAGES?!?!?!?
They are the first 2 topics in this forum: http://forum.zibri.org/f4-agif
I locked the big one now to avoid any problems.
Do you have any clue?
Can I download a full backup of the forum (just in case) ?

Re: DELETED MESSAGES?!?!?!?
Why would you need a backup? The topics are not deleted.

Re: DELETED MESSAGES?!?!?!?
Why not? What if (one day for some reason) I will need to transfer this forum?

If you're referring to th database? You can't access it nor transfer it to another hosting.
Re: DELETED MESSAGES?!?!?!?
That's unfair. Even the evil google allows to dump all your data before signing off.

I did. But it's still unfair.
I have no intention of leaving forumotion, but I hope you will understand your mistake. (Or that a lwayer, sooner or later will make you)
